I can't fathom why anyone involved (Leath, Harbert, or Greene) would intentionally sabotage Gus's chances at success next year. I feel like if Gus wants Freeze we'll pay for it If the reports are true, they made him an offer he couldn't accept. But Gus. So not do they not only still have the guy they tried to make quit, but now they have an even less effective version of him. Again, if the reports are true.

He called their bluff; it would be silly to just go along with an agreement that harms both parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just completely hypothetical, but say Freeze wanted 1 mil, Chip’s salary was 800k. Could the remaining 200k come out of Gus’ salary? If so, is that even something Gus would accept?

As even some friendly media types have said, there is no good way out of this. Of all the bad ways to handle it, it seems like they went with the worst.

The last two, one went to UConn, the other possibly to Kansas. Both considered one of the 5 worst D1 football programs. How has Lashley done?
