If Manure doesn’t fire Penos he’s holding that card to use it next year. He’s a student of UM’s pvssy ways and is banking on getting a 3rd year regardless of what he does next year.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Penos is given the chance to hook on elsewhere to save face. Manure is a politician. There’s zero reason to wait tilll after ESD to fire him. He’s either already been told to look for work, or Manure isn’t firing him.
Who’s stupid enough to come here with the sole intent of playing for Penos? That would be like going to Chipotle because you heard they were poisoning customers with their rotten meats.
