Big update from Herald

Obviously don’t know all of the facts but if Dec. 1 is really a thing then your hire the AD early so by the time the 1st rolls around their review could already be “legitimately” complete. Now, at best, you hire someone the day before the alleged deadline and it has the appearance of being rushed and pre-planned as they head toward litigation.

That’s the one variable that I’ve gotten conflicting data on…. A Dec 1 reduction in Manny’s buyout

Anything short of hiring Mario shortly after Oregon’s game on Friday, and our fanbase will riot for two reasons

- putting all their eggs in one basket
- the sequence and timing of their process for AD and HC

For the record I would happily bring in Kiffin as option 1b

That’s always been a question I have is do we know for sure about the 12/1 date. $2M bucks is nothing to sneeze at but at this point is a drop in the proverbial bucket compared to the ill will being spewed due to the apparent waffling on decisions.

The following post comes from another site - I think the OP makes a number of good points. It makes sense if you think about it. As fans, we don't like that the process isn't moving at the pace we would like but there are some mitigating factors.

" I believe it is not mis-direction, but rather a quite calculated strategy to get from Point A (Blake and Manny) to Point B (New AD and Mario/Lane/etc). I'm quite confident that the backchannel communications with the top HC candidates have occurred and they know where they stand. The issue has been trying to hire a new AD and HC while minimizing unnecessary buyouts/costs. The key to all of this timing is the Dec 1 change in Manny's buyout. The Admin can't show any indication that they have decided or intend to fire Manny prior to Dec 1 otherwise he has potential legal grounds to sue for the full buyout even if they don't officially fire him until Dec 1 or later. Plus, as a lucky strike extra, they have now saved on any Lashlee buyout and perhaps a couple others if Lashlee hires any of the offensive staff.

Based on the above, I think that very, very likely they have a verbal assurance from one of their top HC choices that he will accept a specific offer when it is presented. They will then announce the hiring of a new AD later this week, who will "evaluate" Manny and make a decision to fire him after Dec 1. They will then owe Manny the reduced buyout with no legal exposure. Then, a few days later, they reach a written agreement to hire the new HC (presumably after Oregon's Pac 12 Championship game if its Mario)."

Can anyone show where it is reported 1 Dec (or any date) is a clause in Manuela's contract?

I think it’s possible an AD has already been secured and for any number of reasons hasn’t been officially announced as of yet. IF an AD is secured, it’s also possible that Diaz’s fate is/has been discussed.

For the love of God, could someone just say why this Strawley woman is so horrible. Give actual reasons please.

A few things:

1. Our school doesn’t get, nor do they deserve, the benefit of the doubt. We have no track record, other than hiring the unemployable, and there is no reason to think she is good at what she does.

2. She is a part of and worked directly for cancer. There is no real reason to retain anyone from this athletic department as they’re associated with utter failure. Is it logical to keep “material” positions from a failed regime? I suppose it worked with promoting Randy and Diaz…stick with it.

3. What has she done that was so great? Don’t say anything about Katie Meier as she has nothing to do with her.

4. There was this awesome article (below). Vomit.

Behind the scenes: How women help shape the UM football program

On any given day, one of the first people Hurricanes football coach Mark Richt may encounter when he arrives for work at the Hecht Athletic Center is Sebrina Beyer, his assistant and the gatekeeper…

Now it is your turn, why should we keep her?

We should look bad and we shouldn’t receive the benefit of the doubt. As for our biggest revenue sports…Our last relevant season, with actual success, in football was 2003. We’ve had three straight losing seasons in basketball.

We’ve hired the unemployable. We make irrational and illogical hires and we do it consistently. There has been zero accountability in the athletic department and we lead the nation in apathy.

The optics look bad here until we reverse the trend.

It starts with bringing in a competent AD with passion and autonomy. Then you let that AD hire the next HC and you don’t force them to hire certain people to material positions; that isn’t control that is being a cuck.

She is taking the hits for the other higher up Shalala plants like Bass pushing their diversity and Inclusion cr@p throughout the dept..

People are scared of her because if she squeals discrimination and injustice to the PC nutcracker Bass, it will bring the woke SJW banshees down on you..

I don't see a Jurich level alpha getting along here, sorry.

Gundy is not leaving. I can write it in caps if you want me to.

He had countless, and I mean countless shots to leave. Never picked one. Born in Oklahoma, played at Oklahoma State, started his coaching career there and is the second-longest tenured coach in College Football at Oklahoma State. Hes been a coach for 31 years and spent four of them outside of Oklahoma State as an assistant. They just signed a new five-year deal with him.
