Trustee: Golden buyout substantially lower after next season

[dfreshhookup]

UM athletic director Blake James disputes any notion that Al Golden kept his job because of a large buyout (which is a substantial portion of the $10 million-plus left on his contract).

“Al is here because we believe in him as a coach,” said James, who remains in pursuit of a neutral site football game with UF (possibly in Orlando).

A UM trustee involved in athletics said the buyout is substantially lower after next season.

James should be executed. Seriously. Crimes against humanity. Hitler and Stalin have NOTHING on Golden, Shalala and James

What do you really expect the guy to do? He's obviously powerless to alter the situation.

Lame duck AD.

A big-time college football progrum is not the place to be penny-pinching faqqots.

Congrats on saving a few million, you just destroyed our 2016 season.

Do you want a lame duck President in Shalala and probably a lame duck AD in James running a coaching search?

Do you want Al Golden coaching in 2015?

If you're smart, you find an instant upgrade who will take the job on a one year "try-out".

Again, you're still putting the search for your hypothetical "instant upgrade" in the hands for Shalala/James. The scenario doesn't change.

They should fire he ***git and then sue his *** for putting forth such a pathetic product. That stupid *** binder can be exhibit a. Where in that binder does it say you have to go 6-7 in year 4 at miami in order to achieve greatness?

To be honest we're in a no win situation. Dfreshhookup is right.

Answer my question, please.

Like I said "If you're smart, you find an instant upgrade who will take the job on a one year "try-out".

This isn't a difficult decision or task. There is a name out there ready to go. We're not asking them to go an insane search like Indiana Jones and find some rare name.

Butch Davis? You don't think he would take the gig on a one year basis?

 

[numbers]

Blake is in so far over his head, it's embarrassing. He should really just shut up until the next president comes on board and hopefully relieves him of his duties.

The trustee is just putting spin out there to try and make it look like there is a semblance of a plan because everyone knows they are cheap, so it seems believable. BOT is full buffoons.

The idea of Shalala hiring Butch Davis is more insane than the idea of her firing Golden on her way out. You couldn't create a more unrealistic scenario.

 

[ProjectMKUltra5]

Is the new president going to be in place before the season starts? If so, what's to stop them from at least firing James?

Why?

Then why does she care? She is on the way out. If she doesn't care (which she clearly doesn't based on her track record) then why would she care if Butch came back?

Why haven't you answered my question above either?

Yes. The only thing stoping the president is apathy.

There isn't a realistic name out there. You'd have to hire someone who would have to put together almost an entire new coaching staff with a month before spring practice starts, keeping in mind that they might be one and done with a new president and likely a new AD unless they have some dramatic winning season. It'll also harm whats left of this class as well.

She's going to hire a guy who bailed on the University right as she came into power and a guy who's name has been tied to a massive academic scandal and was fired in disgrace at his last gig for the sake of the football program?

Sounds exactly like Shalala.
