If FSU gives him a similar deal he isnt losing anything. That buyout likely gets offset by FSU so he isnt gaining anything additional there.
i don't know the state of FSU AD to comment on your first line. but to the rest you are correct.So, I don't think FSU is dumb enough to do that.
Gus really had AUburn bent over the woodpile when they made that deal. It is craaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzy! At the time, he was hot and had another suitor.
Gus and his agent played Auburn like a fiddle.
