Quietmaninthecorner 1,945 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Wait! I'm confused. Doesn't the buyout drop in 3-5 weeks? If so, why not wait? Recruiting will not take that big of a it. We may miss out on some early signing day recruits, but money is getting tight with all the Covid s***. Put the money saved by waiting a few weeks into the recruiting budget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't payed much attention to the buyout numbers and dates (seemed futile), but I thought there was a big drop in the buyout (millions??) coming up really soon (mid Jan??). I've been anti Gus a long time, but I can stick it out a few more weeks to save "millions" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put the money saved by waiting a few weeks into the recruiting budget Pretty sure it dropped at the beginning of the month. Half of which would be due up-front, then in installments. Even that is negotiable if Auburn so chose to try that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time he gets paid, that amount is no longer remaining on the contract. So it is kind of a continual reduction rather than a big step function every year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be a bad look, and genuinely unethical, to wait to fire Gus after reeling in those early recruits, with them fully believing Gus will be their coach in 2021.

If you search hard enough you can alway find someone who will tell you what you want to hear. Truth is, none of these wishful dreamers have the 20+ million to terminate CGM or the additional 20 million that they are going to use to hire Bob Stoops, Urban Meyer, John Gruden (or whatever other big time coach they just know AU is about to hire),who is just itching to come to work in CNS backyard for a Bipolar Schenzophrencnic fan base. One can argue that it was a bad mistake to give that contract extension to CGM, but that is done. All those so called fans who are stirring the coaching change pot are just hurting AU, hurting recruiting, and making it harder for the next super coach that they will be ready to fire the next year. Change means different, change does not alway mean better. Ask UT, ask Ark., ask GA. , ask Texas. Of course we have an admin who is much more competent than they have at those schools, especially with such a wise fan base advising them and pledging other people's (boosters) money, and with AU being a much better coaching destination, we certainly will do better with our hire, no way we could possibly do worse than what we have. Heck, we should be right there with Texas, GA, and UT in no time at all. 🐴 💩 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
