"Minnesota AD Mark Coyle stated tonight that they will pay out the full amounts due to Tracy Claeys and all staff members under their contracts (not their buyouts)."

Unless Randy saw this coming, I have to believe most of his staff is in place and these free agents would not end up here.

Whoa...let's not get nuts here.

I'd charter a Megabus and bring the entire team to Storrs if I could.

Part of my comments is based on a hunch that Randy isn't looking for protest type players (when the protest misguided).

Correction, just got word from U official clarifying that Claeys will be getting the buyout (about $500,000) not the $3.1 million.

7 #Gophers assistants who were fired will be paid in full, however. So Claeys gets buyout, assistants paid in full, per their contracts.

It's possible BG was aware of what was coming... but yes probably still a long shot.

Oh, by BG you mean Goetz. For a second I reverted to early 2000s boneyard when BG was short for Ben Gordon.

When you have a job that pays you millions over the course of several years, do not do anything that stupid to jeopardize it.
