This is a man. He's over 40. He's a man.

Gundy pondering which lawyer to use to try and get his $25M buyout bag if he is fired for "cause"?

0-9 in the Shit 12 should be cause enough.

What was the “cause” osu was saying they could invoke?  I saw a tweet earlier today saying they asked him to take less, apply the difference to NIL or we’ll fire you for cause and you get nothing.  
 

what did he do?

Only one stupid tweet said the cause thing. There’s no fucking cause. It would be a buyout.

He played for a B12 championship last year

Can't argue that, but it just seems to me he may have worn out his welcome.  I have a buddy who is Okie lite alum and doesn't not like him at all.  So that is where I get my info.  Either way, no skin off my back.

Clearly something went seriously wrong inside the program after Texas took them to the woodshed in the B12 championship game. What made a successful coach 20 years ago, or even 5 years ago, isn’t what makes a successful coach today. OSU would do best to cut the cord right now and search for diamond in the rough in the D2 / coordinator ranks. They also need to accept that their future is going to look a lot more like the 90s than the 2010s.

Who the hell are these folks on X ???

 

It’s twitter, they’re morons. I’m hearing that one of the regents (maybe the chair) was super anti-Gundy and made things way more dramatic than it should have been and the twitterverse went full twitter. That’s why Shrum and Weiberg looked frustrated after the executive session, they wanted to work a deal in good faith. Understand that half our regents are rednecks from bumblefuck that just happen to have four generations of ranching or oil wealth from free land their great great grandpappy got when it was taken from the Natives. Fuck that guy, seriously, this all should have been behind closed doors. I’m happy to hear they are putting pressure on him to hire real coordinators and not try to pluck a diamond in the rough from the fucking NAIA, that’s all that I wanted and what pissed me off most about Gundy. One report is that he was already close to both hires before Boss Hog on the board of regents went full drama queen. Allegedly.

They were per advanced stats a 6-6 team last year that overachieved.  They returned almost everyone.  And now are a 6-6 team that underperformed 

That’s the best explanation I’ve heard about our program in a while. It’s the same pretty much every year but we’ve overachieved pretty much every year, sometimes greatly overachieved, and this is the first year we’ve greatly underachieved. The 2021 season when we beat OU and then ND in the Fiesta Bowl was almost identical to last year, we had to make big comebacks pretty much every week and found a way.

Yeah, can't see what he'd bring to the table at this point in his career.

Gundy's in no man's land now. Will he really want to coach again once the Pokes get rid of him? Or does he take a studio job?

OAN studio or some sort of college football studio job?

Redirecting a coaches salary to NIL money will be an interesting little trick for sure. 

If my choice is ($X-5) or $0;  why the fuck do I care where the -5 goes?  Oh you want to help invest in the talent on the field?  Mkay.  I really just care that $X.

Just read the posts from the last week in this thread.  All that's missing is a fabricated Craig James episode.

One of those regents thinks they can get Tuberville...

I have no idea what your sentences are attempting to convey. The issue is that coaches salaries are paid by the school, and as of right now NIL cannot be paid by the school. So that money has to move to a collective or similar non-affiliated entity.

I initially read your post from the perspective of the HC.  I see now that is not what you were discussing.

My comments on idiot regents were still relevant, however; with regard to overall management of the situation.

I think the reference was to what they're calling "House money" based on the House case which will allow (or require, I forget) directly payments from the University to players.
