Same. This is so bizarre. I don't think a coach accepting a lower buyout offer has ever happened in CFB before, and it just defies logic why a coach would do so.



Per all reports, they did not in a million years expect Gus to accept this deal. I mean, who would after all? This is a lose lose for Gus and he still accepted it.

Yeah none of,this makes sense. Gus basically agrees to get fired next year for less money. Oh and BTW being totally cucked when it comes to decision making about staff.

Yeah, unless Gus is a super modest guy, it doesn't make sense.

Basically, he's saying he wants to coach next season, and if he fails, he's willing to be fired in a way that financially easier on the athletics department...wtf

I'm not sure if I believe the reduced buyout stuff either. Maybe we need to wait on more details to emerge, but it's being widely reported at this point.

If it indeed was a 'take it or get fired' offer, and he indeed accepted it, he should still be fired for utter stupidity. I wouldn't be surprised if further details emerged today that paints the offer in a more fair light for Gus.

This makes less sense to me than all of the other reports coming out. Say Gus doesn't "accept" this deal, what is the alternative?.......Auburn fires Gus and he gets a Brinks truck backed up to his door.
