Official Jon Gruden Thread XVIII

[billcox0625]

They get negotiated all the time from the original. Most are put together assuming you don't get fired or resign with multiple games left on the schedule. Plus years removed can change the opinions of the original agreement.

Essentially Jones is trying to get as much of his buyout as he can get without having his coaching rep further dirtied up by losing to more SEC doormats.

He could also agree to leave for a smaller lump sum payment rather than getting multiple smaller payments over years. I'm not sure but if another school hires him do they have to pay his remaining buyout? If so, that would be incentive enough for him to take a reduced buyout because who would pay 8 mil for him now.

My thought is, maybe the AD wants something that’s contrary what is already written into the contract. The AD then might go to Butch and his agents and ask for that thing, while giving up something that Butch wants like shorter pay terms, etc.

Very possible and that can work both ways.

They both know it's over. It's down to making the best deal and both are trying to take care of themselves.

Almost feel bad for you guys. Almost.

 

['Boro-vol]

You trolls were caught in a lie. E4H still can’t figure out how to properly screenshot a text and DTO gone silent.

How am I caught up in this...oh wait, I don't care.

Nothing has changed, buyout is done.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Nothing has changed. In Chip we trust.

Going to UCLA or Florida. It's Gruden or disappointment.

Haha...no kidding. And hurry

This is best I can do on Mac. Don't care to be called a liar, info is solid and it's great news. I'll be here regardless.

I’ll eat crow if it turns out to be true but not believing anymore. 0%

Ok...party back on. That was easy.

I have one of those! I like doing my math homework on it. It saves a ton of paper.

As it stands they UT would pay the difference of the buyout total less what his new employer is paying him.

As it stands.

Why would you believe a screenshot of a text convo from someone you don't even know in the first place

Sorry to put the nail in the Boro’ / DTO coffin thing, but the Recruiting Forum guys have been laughing at us for taking their “reports” to heart.

Apparently they did this last time.

Well the other day I questioned them on how shady the whole thing was with:

Boro: “Tell EB4H everything DTO (wink wink)”

DTO: “I told him everything”

EB4H: “He told me everything!”

....... it looked shady to me. So I went back in the 2012 Gruden threads, they were pulling the same stuff then. Sad day.
