But waiting another year only saves them $7m. That's basically chump change. The fact only half has to be paid out immediately and they could get boosters to offset alot of that, I think it's entirely possible they can him at 8-4.
SECN revenue is like $100m a school per year, or something ridiculous like that, plus their own revenue, it's really not going to break them.

The gus malzahn experiment has run its course. The whole reason they hired him was because he was supposedly the secret ingredient to the 2010 NC. Nevermind that chiz d was awesome and Cam was awesome... it was gus that would lead them to the promised land, they said.

I like how you said "at least beat Georgia" like it's not that hard.

Revenue is high but so are their expenses. In 2017-2018, Auburn Athletics had a revenue of about $146 million, but only 7.8 million in net profit.
Auburn Athletics received ~$7.6 million from the school in student fees and direct funding in 2018. That is up from ~$6.4 million in 2014. Yet, the payback to the University from Athletic revenue was only $2.4 million in 2018.
I'm certain they could raise funds to do it or readjust their budget, but their Ath Dept doesn't have $17.5 million to be paid within 30 days of firing him just laying around unaccounted for.
