Ritchie McKay was fired with three years left on his contract. But unlike McClain, McKay is getting payments that will add up to $580,000. McKay said his original contract stated that any salary after being fired would count against a new contract at a new school, but the school later rewrote the contract to remove that provision so as to not penalize McKay. So he gets his salary from UNM and Liberty.
