He should've been fired last year but they panicked after his first year (IIRC) and thought someone was gonna poach him so his salary became too 10 in the country ( ) and his buyout was HUGE

Lol at Memphis thinking they deserve a good program. I'm not huge on Josh, but you have a fricking trash program. Cal is a fraud. UNLV or Memphis? They are about the same. Wait, no they're not. RIP Tark

sounds like what your athletic department has done with Botch.

Some fools never learn.

Wishful thinking, bammer

You guys lost your 5* and are losing the player that's carried you, and you see the writing on the wall for Averys crap coaching while we hold onto our two 5*s and continue to trend up.

Oh you scared

Memphis is easily a better basketball program than Auburn.

It is the worst situation up here. Pastner should be fired and everyone agrees he should be fired. However, no one wants to write a 10 million dollar check. He essentially got a contract where the entire thing was a guaranteed. Further, there is no mitigation of the damages for firing him. Basically, if he was fired and got the job at UTSA, Memphis couldn't reduce what they owe him by what he is making. It is one of the most ridiculous contracts I've ever heard of. He will be paid the full amount no matter what happens in the future.

I say fire him but I'm not writing that check.

I can't remember if RC Johnson was still there or if it was the new AD when that contract was offered but anyone who was involved with it should've been fired already. One of the worst college athletics contracts ever

Memohis used to have this female president that was AWFUL towards athletics, she didn't believe in funding them. She was a driving force behind Tommy West's rant on his last day as the football coach

Memphis has a law school. From now on just get one of the first year law students to review any contracts.

That is how dumb this contract was.

Latest theory is that if Memphis were to leave the AAC for the Big 12, then they'd have to pay the AAC 10 million. So they can't pay Josh his 10 million to go away. So basically, he's the coach.

This season will be the worst record since Johnny Jones was the coach.

That rumor has been circulating on VOLS boards for a while now. I would shed a tear if that sweaty Jew went to Tiger High but I do believe he would win big there.
