Gundy Not in Trouble….restructuring

[SanditeCowboy]

Per RA;
1. There is angst among the regents to fire Mike Gundy, or at the very least restructure his contract.
2. He doesn't expect anything to happen today.
3. Gundy offered to meet with the regents, but he was turned down.

Something is gonna happen, but maybe not today.

Why did the BoR decide that we will know by 5 pm on a Friday? Isn’t that the time you announce firings?

Probably because they wanted it done before weekend so Weiburg could get looking sooner for a HC if needed

Kinda on the BOR if they said this needs to happen today, but it gets drawn out. Alot of this seems like it needed to happen without becoming public knowledge.

If number 3 is true, then this is complete BS.

Just so my stance is clear, I’m against firing Gundy 100%.

There is only so much a public university can do privately. There are laws and procedures to follow.

No clue if this is true, but it's interesting.

🚨BREAKING🚨 My sources can confirm HC Mike Gundy has been offered a restructured contract containing reduced salary, more stringent reporting structure, and restructured contract, or he will be TERMINATED.

The University will have their answer by 5 pm today. pic.twitter.com/zzXTiTmA9D

This is why I hate social media, who knows if this legit or not? If it is, then whom ever let this out needs to have their mouth sewn shut and hands glued together. If not this ding donk needs the wwo shed. All of this needed to be confidential until a decision was made then an annoucement on what was what. Kind of makes the dumpster fire spread to the whole house!

Let it come out after the fact then. If they were going to fire him they needed to make sure they had the votes (and cash) before any meeting started.

Some need to realize that coaches out there pay attention to the way things are handled. You’re sending a very bad message when you fire a guy who has done what Gundy has over the last 20 years. He's definitely made mistakes, been stubborn and made some bad choices but you have to give him the chance to make it right before taking this step. Just a complete shit show this has turned into.

If this is the end of Gundy at OSU I am legit going to be inconsolable.

 

[inappropriate.name]

We'll see IF he's let go if he pursues his buyout with intensity - I mean, he loves the university soooo much, it would only make sense to continue to go after them for 10's of millions when he's already earned more money than anyone could spend in 10 lifetimes.

Just wait. He'll go for that money. Loyalty be damned. I love watching hypocrisy in action.

I don't know how you live your life but, I could piss away all his money in a weekend in Vegas (hookers - blow - gambling)

You definitely have to take everything you read on social media with a grain of salt. It can be entertaining though.

 

[DCowboy]

Unless we have an absolute can't miss coaching hire I'm against firing Gundy.

I’ll be your wingman and DD.

Never seen a divorce, huh?

Im reminded of “be careful what you wish for”

Yes, I enjoy the entertainment at times but I don't like the black eye it feels we will be getting from this one. We will see...

On the flip side, they could be looking at a great opportunity to make a lot of money coaching in a super weak conference with low fan expectations and little pressure to win championships with the potential to be there 20 years with relatively little effort.

I don’t disagree with this thought but I do doubt it.

With the current landscape of CFB, you will have to work extremely hard to consistently win/compete for conference championships regardless of the conference.

We are taking about firing someone who has been to more consecutive bowl games than we had in our total history prior to his arrival after one bad year. I don't think low fan expectations is a selling point right now.
