Plain Trouble on "Da Plains" (all AU posts here)

  • HELLO AGAIN, Guest! We are back, live! We're still doing some troubleshooting and maintenance to fix a few remaining issues but everything looks stable now (except front page which we're working on over next day or two)

    Thanks for your patience and support! MUCH appreciated! --Brett (BamaNation)

    if you see any problems - please post them in the Troubleshooting board!

Yep, it makes no sense. The current contract benefits him more. So they offer him a lesser contract and expect him to sign it?
Unless there's something we don't know about the deal, it seems absolutely insane to agree to it. Let's see, we'll fire you unless you sign something stating we have to pay you less if we fire you. What's wrong with this picture?

The only way he should even consider something like that is if they actually up his buyout quite a bit for one year, and then after that it becomes much cheaper. So he'd essentially be signing on for a guarantee of one more year. Even then the only way he should consider that is if it came with a raise.
 
Stoops is adamantly denying any contact with Auburn. I expect him to be named as their HC within the week. ;)

Tuberville weighs in. This article is awesome.
“It’s a complete mess, to be honest with you. There are too many people up there trying to make a decision. Obviously, they don’t have a clue what they are doing.”

Understatement of the century.
 
Look at the town name......LOL!!!


UBURN, Alabama – Though no agreement has been finalized and changes remain possible, Gus Malzahn is on the verge of accepting a reduced buyout and other limitations to remain for his seventh season as Auburn’s head football coach, sources told AuburnUndercover.



Why would he agree to that? Take the money and run if they want him gone.
 
Why would he want more up front? Does he owe the mob a few million dollars that he can't scrape together?
There maybe several stipulations in the current contract that Gus would have to adhere to in order to receive the full 32 mil over a period of time. He may prefer to have 50 cents on the dollar placed in his checking account today and be gone tomorrow with no strings attached (except for the standard non disclosure agreement). I know I would.
 
From the article, it looks like AU trustee Raymond Harbert has been left in charge of negotiating and finalizing this deal with Gus. Is it just me or does this seem a bit odd?
 
The new AD doesn't want the stink of this contract on him at all because otherwise when the auburn brain genius boosters get hot and bothered next year it could be used against him.

The money man that wants Gus gone is doing what he has to do to make it happen. Not surprising at all.

Yep. AG is staying far away while Leath deals with the mess he created (or at least helped create).
 
All I know is, without a doubt that place is a mess right now.
