Tried to fire Bruce
I thought I heard Bruce say that he had the support of the president and athletic director and didn't care about anything else in the "Kiss my arse video?"

49 Million, 7 years, 75% guaranteed... So will cost us $26 million to get rid of a coach whose only support was the former Prez and one board member. (this was the worst contract in NCAA history) Leath would not listen to the AD or other board members.

$15 million just for the "President's Mansion".
That was approved by Gogue before Leath arrived, and, from what I've read, was MUCH needed.

I have been at times. However at AU it generally always gets back to football in the main. So knowing how the real world works I would surmise this is a bad decision. Saban has 4/5 years left so if AU is ever gonna make the playoffs they need some stabiity to take advantage. It's a bad decision since everybody from blue collar work through big corporate insists on having their own people. So the AD and all the head coaches, particularly Malzahn and Pearl will be someone else's people when the new guy is hired. And their will most likely never be peace til the new man hires his own who kiss his ring. Reality.
