Anyone hear anything on this?

[section9]

Jesus. If Richt won’t move, then fire James and anyone associated with this catastrophe extension.

 

[canesbaby]

So his buyout is worth more than his whole ******* contract?

That was my first thought as well.

 

[GonzoCane]

Gayry Furwoman is the walking embodiment of fake news.

Lol. Gary was adamant all season on his podcast that Manny wasn’t going anywhere. A little off on that one.

 

[Cribby]

Even more reason Blake must be fired.

Blske was so desperate to get Mork he handed over the entire program. So don’t be shocked he’s standing by his man.

It’s the only reason Mork took the job , after Uga he wanted the last say with everything. Power was more important than the actual dollars.

The extension is a fireable offense , and the actual contract is even worse.

 

[FL Cane]

Don't know how plugged in this guy is from the tweets above, says on his bio that he reports for GT, but if the higher-ups are ****ed that's good for us.

 

[SCarolina Ibis]

That dude looks like he’s asking to be teabagged.

Oh yeah. Looking through the rest of his tweets, he comes off as an arrogant douche too. But he isn't lying about covering and knowing Richt. I just hope he's wrong.

 

[canesbaby]

Unless Richt steps down we’re f’d ,his contract is absolutely crazy . Dude has absolute control over the entire football program. From firing assistants right down to the uniforms. Blake is his *****.

So Mark Richt’s boss has no ability to fire any of his employees on the football staff? Why would any sane person agree to this? Completely desperate move by Blake and makes a ton of sense why Mark is asking for a huge payout to go away. Sounds like things are a mess at Hecht right now.

 

[TheWhiskeyMiser]

James doesn’t sign off on the contract by himself. The University has a general counsel and outside counsel. If they signed off on that idiotic an agreement, without there even being a reason to, after all the U went through in the past on coaching contracts, then they are all truly incompetent.

I would love to see if there is a way for them to demand that he fire Jon. He may have covered his bum on that one too.

 

[canefan96]

More than 25 million buy out? Someone needs to be fired ..... Fake James.

 

[Cajuncane]

So what you’re saying is Jon Jon will be adding OC @ Miami to his resume..

 

[canesbaby]

Is anyone monitoring Joaquin's twitter? Get Lake Lewis on Line 1!

He did tweet something critical yesterday which was out of left field.

There’s a reason Blake just says the same ole bs. He literally has no power , Richt can walk up and take a dump on his desk and he can’t do jack.

Blake can’t force crap, he gave Richt everything he wanted. Including the same money he was getting paid at the school that just canned him.

 

[Zbrod95]

I like him as a coach but he already makes 3 mill a year. Miami is not going to raise that much if at all

3.5...and we pay Mark about 4.2.

 

[Dingaan1828]

Well, you can always fire him and pay him whatever the buyout is in the contract. No one here knows how much that is. If he offered to quit with a big buyout, then you have the start of a negotiation. If the result of the negotiation doesn’t suit Richt, he can just resume his duties and we suffer the consequences. It seems to me that he holds all the cards.

This is assuming this is true.
What is the likelihood of the BOT even being engaged, much less concerned, about this situation right now?
Those folks are probably on holiday, probably skiing somewhere on their boat.
I am starting to think these rumors are bogus.
Richt will hire his LB coach and waddle on.

 

[TheDawgfather]

I haven't read the entire thread, so apologies if this was covered.

The only way Richt would offer to quit is if firing Jon was part of the changes that were demanded. He won't do it and, imo, would quit before he was forced to.

Requesting a buyout in exchange for quitting? You really think an agent wouldn't demand that? ****, Richt got his buyout from UGA and didn't even have a signed contract when we fired him.

Yep. That or hope he realizes he can’t handle this and calls it quits.

I mean he does seem miserable, hopefully it gets worse.

I was hopinh after the Wisconsin raping he’d finally see the light and realize he needs help. But I guess it doesn’t matter at this point.
