Look: Year-By-Year Wes Miller Contract Buyout Structure

CINCINNATI — The cliff dive from Cincinnati Bearcats basketball has plenty of fans wondering: What's Wes Miller's contract buyout?
Year four has arguably been the worst of his tenure, but it will take a whole lot of cheddar to fire him after this season. According to The Athletic, Miller's buyout if fired before April 1, 2025, is $13 million based on the contract extension he inked in 2022.
That number drops to $9.9 million in April and drops again on April 1, 2026, to $4.69 million. It's highly unlikely Cincinnati will let go of him after this season, based on those figures.
