Honestly why would you fire him if you have to pay him anyway?

Why did they ever hire him for $900k in the first place?

Why not promote an assistant already on staff, that they're already paying, to be the interim coach?

He was an insurance policy. Originally he was going to be on Pruitts staff in case they fired Pruitt in 2021. He likely would have been the head coach going in 2022 without the scandal stuff.

It’s obvious that he was Fulmer’s security policy to be able to fire Pruitt. Fulmer just didn’t know he was getting canned too.
