You?re just making shit up now. GA Tech had the lowest preseason win total in P5. They?re horrific and everyone knows that.Quote:

He would have to be actually coaching here for me to know that. Are you planning on paying him over $9 milllion a year? He doesn't want to be at OM . He wanted the Auburn job, but they didn't think he was worth a $120 million 10 year contract. They offered initially a $72 million 6 year contract and they may have negotiated up some on that, but the bottom line is Auburn didn't think Kiffin was worth what he thought he was. So he took the somewhere around $70+ million 8 year contract extension that OM offered. It will be interesting if OM thinks he is worth $9+ million a year until he finds his next coaching gig and says Bye Bye OM.Quote:

Some way they figured out how they could set up some type of private fund and circumvent the 4 year max state law and pay the other 4 years from that fund. I don't really know how you implement it. Some of the OM lawyers came up with it I guess.Quote:
