Auburn bet against itself. They thought no way would Gus accept all these conditions and he did. So now the university is stuck with him, he is stuck with his staff (unless they leave for other jobs), and we are stuck with a big old heaping of 5-7, 6-6, or 7-5 in 2019.

Bo Nix should seriously reconsider his options.
Did he accept?  I haven't seen anything official except WBRC or whatever TV outlet report that. 247Sports is reporting it based on them. 

Nah, we won't go 5-7, 6-6 or 7-5 in 2019.  We'll make the playoffs because Auburn.

Who the fudge allows an academic to alter terms on a multi million dollar contract?
The same ones that allow him to negotiate one in the first place.

No seriously. There's no place that anything like this could happen but Auburn.

But he didn’t have to negotiate anything. He could have told them the deal remains no changes. He had the leverage. Same end result will happen now except he will get less money. Is he that stupid?
I think he honestly believes the shit he spouts that we are that close.  Which is even fucking scarier to me.


Like I said yesterday we are fucked.

I agree but in his mind he is an offensive guru that is not getting the recognition he should.  Therefor he knows his stock is crap right now and he wants to keep coaching to show how great he thinks he is.  The end result, reduced contract buyout.

True. Unlike others who get kicked to the curb our guy hasn't the personality to capture a tv gig.

I dont see how this stops the hiring of Freeze. All he has to do is agree to the same salary as Lindsey!

Oh. And Paul Johnson is now available. We'd kill the SEC with his offense...

And somebody please tell GA Tech they can get Gus with no buyout!

I thought all three.

Now I worry.:blink:

It's not that I necessarily want the triple option... just want the best motor graders it attracts. In fact I want us to track and offer the best that each school that runs this offense offers.

We make the playoffs with Freeze unfettered. 

And Gus would be a dandy transition for Tech.

If he runs his offense and sticks with an option QB, he could stay as relevant as Johnson. And it would be acceptable.

Because Gus has shown he knows what to do with a QB who has a live arm and two game WRs this year. Sure.
