Message: [QUOTE="dennismenace, post: 2619846, member: 6158"] As has been said here before it could be a negotiating tactic if KO refused a negotiated buyout. We just don't know. No way they are going to offer him a $10 mil. walk with whatever they have for just cause. Atty for some west coast university (somewhere on the BY today) said the language of KO's contract does not help him because the "just cause" clause is very vague and favors the University. I don't really think this University would deliberately try to cheat him out of any negotiated settlement without having some pretty "just causes". That would go against the schools reputation and I think they are very conscious about that. They have made some bad personnel decisions but bad faith has never been part of the equation here. I think this will cool off and be resolved fairly quickly along with a new coach deal. It's in everyone's best interest. Looking forward to the changes and really, really hope for the best for KO. I don't know all or even some of the background other than what I can see. I think the divorce thing has been very unsettling to him and I really hope he can recover from all of this and be the person he was destined to be. He has not seemed to be himself for the past few years. I think he has a lot of heart and his determination in the past has taken him places. He probably needs to sort all this out and rebound.
