re: the OFFICIAL HarsinGate thread (Harsin Refusing reduced buyout)

The way this investigation was handled was spectacular. Claims were made by ex employees during exit interviews and confirmed by more than one employee. Councel was brought in to do an investigation and a very reputable firm handling claims such as these were brought in. Investigations covered current players, former players, current coaches, and former coaches. They were conducted in unison to reach the truth. They understood the pressing time but each person had to be interviewed.

I was under the impression the PTB were behind this and Auburn was screwing it up. I felt there was a better way to do it for Auburn but the fair way was to let the investigation run it's course and have a fair and balanced outside party handle it. This was handled no differently than if a professor had made a claim against a dean.

On social media, in the news, and other places, it made Auburn look bad. However, lives are at stake and there was enough given to do an investigation that was not for an athletic team. This was about an employee making claims against another University Employee and it being verified. This has nothing to do with Football, it has everything to do with serious issues by an employee. Again, you should be proud of Auburn. When the truth settles and comes out, you will understand. He should accept the buyout and roll on. He's just too stubborn and sheltered to understand.
