Ehud posted:yeah totally why would the university want to save millions of dollars? it's not like it would keep the boosters happy or anything. Why do the fans care? They're gonna fire him anyways and on the margin dicking over your coach over their buyout will harm finding the next coach. I just find it weird that the fans seem to be happy that Florida's trying to screw over McElwain when they bear none of the cost

Looking at mcelwain recently it's been clear since the shark thing that the job, or at least part of it, is wearing on him. He was probably the most laid back HC in memory before this year but since he had to go on record for something that stupid he's seemed miserable.

Gonna be hilarious in 5 years when McElwain finally wins the lawsuit and UF is stuck paying his full buyout and the buyout of the next coach they fire Adun fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Oct 29, 2017 |

Adun posted:I mean the whole ''making up death threats' thing seems flimsy as hell. You're telling me there's no one on twitter or whatever UF message board has said they've wanted to kill Jim McElwain or a player? Sounds like they might work a buyout out anyway, so hopefully none of this matters. But if you go say you've had death threats against players and act as though it's actually something that is worrisome and not a throwaway twitter joke...well you're pretty much obligated to assist in the investigation into said threats.

Clearly he's feeling unfulfilled in life in general if he's having to get it from a shark.

Adun posted:Not like Florida is lacking for money. Maybe you poo poo gold ingots, but $13 million is a lot of money for any athletic department. Between the unreported/fake death threat statement and the players charged with the credit card fraud scam, things aren't exactly ship shape in Gainesville under his watch. Why wouldn't they try to reduce or even remove his buyout?

Mac could have avoided a lot of this by just firing Doug loving Nussmeier. Instead his Florida stint is going to go down in flames.

Jim McElwain K so the death threat is real and he refuses to give the UAA information on the death threats, potentially putting himself, his coaching staff, players and families at risk. It's a fireable offense either way.

Guys, this was all a plan by Stoops to get out of Oklahoma and come home to coach the Gators. It's a move out of an old Florida coach's playbook called The Urban.

Good point. He’s the real victim here. It’s bad that colleges make a bunch of money on these kids but good when coaches get paid millions to get fired.

It seems pretty stupid for everyone to suddenly pretend like they care if a football coach reports random Twitter death threats. UF signed a contract with an employee and they’re trying to get out of paying him what he’s owed. That’s pretty lovely!

It seems pretty stupid for everyone to suddenly pretend like they care if a football coach reports random Twitter death threats. And all the employee had to do make literal millions for doing a bad job and getting fired was not do something that might give the university cause to fire him. Also, your argument applies with no modification to golden parachutes for lovely fired executives.

I really don't care either way, but if Mac was a teacher at some lovely public school and he didn't report on death threats, he'd be fired. They will probably work out a couple of few million to make Mac go away.

A big part of the problem with corporate governance/golden parachutes is that CEOs often sit on the board or have too cozy of a relationship with the board and exert undue influence. So often they’re writing their own contracts. UF didn’t need any help to shoot itself in the dick so it’s not exactly the same.

Frost actually like UCF, and, per rumor, wants to turn it into "the oregon of the east", but he's gonna get can't-say-no offers soon

With Auburn and LSU left on the schedule, Sumlin really needed to win the Mississippi State game, and he certainly didn't need to get embarrassed by them. 7-5 is looking more likely than 8-4, and that's probably not going to do it.

McElwain is going to get fired, and go to some random school and his offense will start scoring 60 a game. Florida will sign Chip Kelly and fail to break 10 all season.
