Everyone knew it was a world-class HORRIBLE hire. People kept their mouths shut because “he’s one of us” and “he’s the one guy that can continue the cULture”
What a facking joke. Top 25 program promotes their TE coach who doesn’t even have college coordinator experience.
Funny AES won a state championship the year after Dez left.
So if I’m reading correctly If Maggard were releived of his duties his buyout would be around $560k after December?
He would be owed 50% of whatever is left of his base salary.
I see now, I was reading what would be owed if he terminated the contract
Well if we are stuck with him hopefully he’ll at least get an offensive coordinator. never seen a coach that can change an outcome of a game on one play, which this has happened quite a few times with him at the helm .
Someone needs to start a go fund me buyout Paige
Not sure how true, but supposedly Napier was told to hire an OC and give up play calling and his leash would be longer and he refused. I think the same conversation should be had with Mike and he looks at what happened with Billy and makes the right decision.
Maggard makes contracts like Loomis
The fact that we signed a contract with Bob Marlin to where we owed him a buyout of $600K still blows my mind.
Literally no one would have offered either Marlin or Dez a 100k contract. Yet Maggard gives them deals like everyone is knocking down the door .
Does anyone remember what Napiers buyout was?
2-3 mil
Fire them all. Period
this morning would be perfect time. Able to hide it behind the tigger headlines.
Tack it onto Kelly’s buyout they would never notice
Haha. With Landry apparently spearheading this thing, can bury another buyout in the contract just like you would tack some pet project onto a bill? Do a solid for your alma mater, Jeff.
Jeff is the reason why the east side renovation will occur. So the buyout will be on us.
The stadium is one of the reasons I’m for firing Des now. The longer he is here, the more momentum you lose from new stadium.
Totally agree
I just don’t see it getting done on optics alone. I know its budget for structural improvements . while you are cutting 200 jobs from the university and need a new Engineering building.
