These amounts are staggering.  However, I don't think the article takes into account how a subsequent job mitigates what is paid vs what was owed.

Whoops, Rob Mullens made the top ten list, not the list you want to be on.

The article is in error, as Mike Bellotti was not fired as he went on to become Athletic Director, and then retired.

Mr. FishDuck

Oregon paid Helfrich $8 million in a lump sum settlement.  I presume, but can’t verify, that the payment was funded by donors. 
As stated above, Oregon didn’t pay Bellotti to go away. He was a Duck out of water as AD and retired with a humongous PERS annuity. 
Bellotti may be the best football head coach ever at Oregon.
