Why is this fantastic?FAN-tastic news!
They're trying to railroad him so hard this reeks of desperation. So sad and pathetic. Good luck hiring anyone worth a ****.
SMH Should be interesting..... Auburn REALLY trying to fire Harsin with cause....
Watch Harsin walk the red carpet at SEC meetings, rip off his breakway pants, and start going full Chippendales with "Clesi" emblazoned on the aşş.I stumbled on an Auburn twitter space a few minutes ago. A couple of their fan site writers are on it and all kinds of media and players.... hundreds of people....
Talk on there is Harsin has been set up to take the proverbial "perp walk" tomorrow. The SEC meetings are scheduled to start tomorrow at 10 am in Birmingham. There will be hordes of media there waiting.... No one knows what is going on right now - if Harsin will show for the meetings, if he won't, etc. Discussing the "policy" that was just published yesterday...
The Auburn writers are talking about whether this "policy" existed when Bruce Pearl, the bball coach was under investigation or whether it was non active, etc. What a mess....... Seems like they are trying to force Harsin and his attorney to negotiate a lesser buyout. One of the media is saying he has a source that told him Harsin was already offered some number that he turned down... He is holding out for the full $$$....
I don't know what P5 coach in their right mind would take that job after this..... Just WOW
EDIT: Someone just said they were told that Harsin has said he will be at the SEC meeting tomorrow...
Yea…. Good luck!Whoever gets the Auburn job has to coach against Nick Saban, Jimbo Fisher, Brian Kelly, Lane Kiffin, Kirby Smart, Mike Leach and Sam Pittman. Every year.
Why is this fantastic?
The man is in Mexico. Their actions reek of bad faith. Good luck going to court on that.
Didn't George costanza try this technique with a girl who wanted to break up with him? they need to get Kramer to meet up with Harsin and fire him.Guess he was about to get fired at Arkansas St. and did the same thing to their Admin. Avoided them but luckily for both Boise St. hired him. Now Auburn fans wondering if Allen Greene did any due diligence before hiring Harsin or if he just remembered talking to him one night in some pool.
I was listening to some of them on a twitter space the day after this news broke and there were quite a few intelligent level headed speakers suggesting this was a smear campaign. I am sure they know their people well so I believe it.A few guys on the Auburn board expect that Harsin is just going to stay and Auburn .. so far with their investigation .. has not found any justification for firing with cause. Ms. Crochet is skiing in Colorado and that entire "scenario" appears to have been a smear campaign.
Something tells me that Harsin will soon be standing in the same line as Jeremy Pruitt and Kevin Ollie. Waiting for their day in court to collect their contract. It's telling that former UConn basketball coach Kevin Ollie recently won his arbitration case against the school after claiming he was wrongfully terminated from his role in 2018 with "cause" and was awarded nearly $11.2 million within the next 10 business days. And that case was centered around NCAA violations.
Jeremy Pruitt has been terminated for over a year with "cause" and still has no knowledge of the NCAA findings against Tennessee. The Chancellor was determined to fire Pruitt with "cause" because of what she termed as numerous level one violations. You have to want your head coach gone in the worst way, meaning no buyout, to frame level one charges against yourself. Who does that besides Tennessee? Pruitt is going to have his day in court regardless, just as Kevin Ollie demonstrated. It better be airtight or like UConn, Tennessee can inherit probation and a huge buyout to boot.
I got this feeling that not paying these enormous buyouts may well be a new trend, but getting it done is going to be harder than these Universities think.
Haven't heard that news yet. But Leach has on many occasions vowed to fight the Texas Tech faithful for "forever." I admire his tenacity.Someone mentioned Leach may have finally settled with TTU recently. Not sure if correct or not though.
