I don't have a huge issue with hiring Kevin Steele, I have a huge issue with giving him a 3 year $4mil contract when we may be looking for a new coach next year.

If we have to buyout the staff, it will make the Chizik era buyouts look like childs play

Ever thought there's a possibility that within the AD its commonly known/thought that CGM's job is perfectly safe? Even after next year?

As many have pointed out in other posts, Auburn has *got* to make sure they are off the coaching carousel for a while for the sake of program stability. I fully expect us to win more than 7 games next year. If that turns out to be the case, the 'buyout' that makes you tremble to your bones will be a non-factor.

I thought about this exact thing yesterday-as in...why in the sam hell would an AD give a multi-year contract to a guy if there is a real possibility that he will not be employed here a year from now? But then, I remembered who our AD was.
