The question I haven't seen asked and answered yet

[HairyBallsDawg]

Did Bama finally pay Grubb's Washington contract buyout?
Only to have Grubb leave for the Seahawks?
This would be one of the funniest outcomes in all of this.
I realize they can afford it but they seemed to be doing everything they could to avoid paying the buyouts.

Quite frankly, I hope Grubb burned it all down for DeBag. Fuck that clown, and fuck him for removing him from a place he loved. DeBag is fucked without his single card OC rolodex stud in Grubb, and if he takes Huff, L-O-F-L!

 

[EwaDawg]

Rumor has it that Grubb never signed a contract with 'Bama so the answer would be no. Again, its only a rumor but it makes sense.

Pretty sure the answer is no but if they did they surely had him under contract and will receive their own buyout from the Hawks. There's no way they paid it without signing him.

Despite all the chatter of this alleged buyout, I still haven't seen an actual number referenced. Or even confirmation of a buyout existing.

Not true. Grubbs buyout was $0 if he went to a Div 1 HC or NFL OC job at UW. I’d assume he had the same for Alabama.

How is DNC's post not true (in the off chance that what you posted is true)?

Simple. read what I wrote.

I’m sure this has been mentioned already but I think the incredible act of bad faith of continuing to present yourself as the bama OC while quite obviously negotiating your new gig as the hawks OC until the 30 day period was up for the transfer portal for Bama Players only to move on feels exactly like the bad faith exhibited by DeBoner during the lead up to the championship game… this is one big sleazy storyline for DeBoner and his loyal staff

The first part is true, $0 for D1 or NFL. Seattle Times had an article this time last year and it was $2m for another college OC job.

So we’re not getting anything for him. That sucks.

If he never signed with Bama, and we never got a buyout, then he was pretending to be the Alabama OC while under contract with UW. That would be some grade A horseshit, and probably grounds for UW to sue Alabama for the $2m buyout. If that’s what happened, he fucked UW to do DeWhore a solid.

Fucked UW? Grubb interviewed for the UW HC job, didn’t get it, and was offered the Bammer OC job. I’m having a hard time vilifying Grubb in any of this.

Agreed. I'm still pro-Grubb. He wanted to stay and keep it together. He and the family took one look around Tuscaloosa, then called his agent. "Get me the fuck outta here." If he proves himself as an excellent HC, I wouldn't kick if he came back some day.

Did you even read what I wrote? I understand why he left after not getting the HC job. I’m just saying if he fake accepted the Bama job and didn’t sign a contract with them on the off chance he might jump to the NFL, that’s a shitty move. He tricked kids into thinking he was going to Bama, and if he was pretending to be the OC at Bama without signing a contract with them, and while still under contract with UW, that’s bullshit.

 

[GrundleStiltzkin]

On such things, my first chinclination (hai @Fire_Marshall_Bill !!1) is to think that there’s smart agents and lawyers on both sides of the deal and it’ll work out. Then I’m reminded that Kirk Ferentz not only has a job but a monstrous buyout, and back to square one knowing nothing.

exactly… an act of bad faith, amidst a string of acts of bad faith

I actually hope this is what happened. For once seeing someone else get fucked while benefiting my 1b. Fuck dedouche, fuck the tide, and as always, fuck the kids.

Rumor circulating is same thing above poster metioned. DeBoener staff was blindsided, jumped on ship and had a WTF moment.

 

[TTJ]

I read what you wrote. I’m just underwhelmed by it.
