    Anyone else hearing Barney is not playing ball with the Bear administration?

    Was just told that the bears are trying to push Barney out and he said no way. Apparently threatening to take down the whole ship. How many people are going to get paid for their silence when this thing is over? Coach?

    Barney can't leave Ole Miss. Who will manage the "opportunity fund"?

    Heard a couple weeks ago. Passed it on to Coach34. I think he is working the admin for a payday.

    If you were him would you take the fall? If he was doing that stuff no way he was doing on his own. I seriously doubt he was calling the shots either.

    Falling on your sword is not a game most people are going to enjoy.


    The funny thing is, if Barney wants to burn Ole Miss football to the ground, he can. If I were him, they'd pay me a mid-six figure severance or they'd regret it.

    It would take a very large severance package for me to take the fall. Everybody has a price.

    I heard a similar rumor from a good bear friend of mine about a day or two after draft night. Sat on it because I'd never gotten any info from him before. Sounds like it has legs after all.

    He will likely be taking a 70% pay cut.

    I don't know but he, like most of the UNM football coaches, will likely have to go to the "real world" to find a job after this is over because I doubt much of any of them will be employable in the college coaching ranks anytime soon.

    I've heard this is Barney:

    Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

    I would for 3-4 million dollars. I could live off of that and not have to work again probably.

    I don't believe Barney is listed as someone they want for a deposition. John Miller was requested I believe.

    That's probably true of anybody that they try to make become the sacrificial lamb. Can't say that I blame him, unless he started the whole thing and I don't think he did.
