Chizik's contract

Hey everyone. We knew Gene Chizik was making $1.9 million as Auburn's coach, but now we have proof of that agreement.

Click to enlarge them.

NOTE: A proper contract, outlining Chizik's performance bonuses and other professional expectations, should be finalized before Media Days in late July.

I was working with a student with horrid grades and wrong major choice when this all went down. My first knowledge of it was from Ed.

Jet said...: THERE WILL BE (MORE) BLOOD -- CHAPTER 2

As the sun starts to set in early May, two ladies are walking down the hill toward my house. I am watering the tree I had planted the day before.

"Hey there. Welcome to the neighborhood! I am ----."

Chit chat. Chit chat.

They start to walk again, and they notice something peculiar in the road.

"This looks like blood."

Bo Jackson takes over my speech pattern.

"I---I---uh --- I ..."

"What happened?"

"You see, there was this dog ... uh ..."

"Did he get hit by a car?"

"Not exactly ...

"What do you mean ...not exactly?"

I'm getting double teamed, and not in a good way. The welcome wagon has turned into the SWAT team.

I try to stammer my way through this, and I haven't figured out a way to explain.

"You see, there was this dog ..."

"You've said that already, now what happened?"

All of sudden, the door next flies open.

"GOOD EVENING, LADIES," as my neighbor, who had only one volume setting, which was EAR-SPLITTING, boomed out.

"Ladies, the dog was a menace, and I shot him. Yes, I did."

I don't know which was more horrifying -- the two women's shrieks or the looks of utter horror on their face. They kept looking back and forth at him and me.

I guess I would be classified as an accessory after the fact, but in their eyes I might as well have pulled the trigger.

My neighbor took a dosage of their berating, then announced he'd had enough.

HOLY CRAP, I think. The last time he had enough, he stuck a .22 rifle between their eyes and pulled the trigger. Oh, no. Don't kill these women. We just moved in. We're expecting a baby.

"I'm not going to talk with you anymore about it, but if you want to send your husbands down here, we'll be glad to discuss it further."

WE!?!?!?!

What the heck are you talking about "WE?!?!" I'm thinking, "I didn't ask you to kill the dog, and now you're either gonna get my @$$ kicked, or you're gonna shoot two people ... or four.

The women stormed off. Thankfully, they realized that he was not a man to be trifled with, and their husbands opted to stay home and watch baseball.

A great, if not unusual, neighbor for 13 years.; 12:17 PM

Harrison said...: awesome Jet! Just remind me not to tell you any of my secrets.; 12:23 PM
Fearless Freep said...: Awesome story, Jetster. I particularly like the "Yes, I did." confirmation after he acknowledged the deed.

That's the kind of neighbor I'd like to have as the Dark Times approach. Unfortunately our neighborhood is made up primarily of elderly couples, middle-aged single women, and vacant houses.; 12:24 PM
Norm said...: Jet - you never did properly thank me as I recall.; 12:24 PM
michael said...: HA! That was awesome, Jet.

Your neighbor sounds like he was your self appointed guardian angel/unwanted enforcer. Crazy.; 12:25 PM
Jet said...: The first time I met the guy, he helped me unload my truck to move in.; 12:26 PM
Anonymous said...: A caller just called Doug "rude." How funny.

How many years does D. Benton have left to play?

I saw this posted on AUC but didn't see a good answer.; 12:28 PM
Fearless Freep said...: BTW, about the 'written agreement' (he remarked, quietly trying to get back to the topic of original post). . .

I noticed that most of the state's media outlets have misreported the size of the buyout clause. It appears to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $1 million or so over the length of the deal. The reports I've seen have implied that it's Chizik's full $1.9 million salary X years remaining, when the language in the written agreement indicates that its only the 'base' salary (which is historically around $200k) X years remaining.

That, and the report that Chizik is no longer represented by Jimmy Sexton, gives me reason for optimism - at least on the financial front.; 12:29 PM

Eddie McCoy said...: Sensi- Sorry, was away from my computer. I am not ugahator on Auburn Undercover, but I already like that guy. Living in this state, you grow to hate Georgia just a little bit more than those of you that live in Alabama.

Definitely a sad story for Phil Mickelson. Hopefully his wife can fight thru it and win.; 12:40 PM
Jet said...: I can't say it's better, Harrison, but there are parts that cause family members to howl in laughter at me and my reaction to certain events when this is recalled.; 12:41 PM
Norm said...: Jet has quite a colorful past. I'm just sayin'.; 12:44 PM
michael said...: Sensi - Benton has all 4 years of eligibility.

However, he will hit the three years removed from high school point after this season, so if he is awesome he could theoretically go pro pretty much immediately.; 12:47 PM

Let's hope he is awesome but wants to hang around to dominate.; 12:48 PM

I miss that guy. Big, physical, great hands.; 12:49 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Benton will certainly get a chance to play come fall practices. I hope he is as good as advertised, but he hasn't played football in awhile. I imagine there is a lot of rust there, but nothing that can't be polished off. Just look at one Rodney Daniel's.; 12:51 PM

AUfan said...: ehyou, that UF game was one of my all-time favorites. Another great memory with the late, great Jim Fyffe on the call. The AU moments are still great, but they'll never be as special without JF on the radio. It's amazing what an announcer can add to the feel of a football game.; 1:24 PM

I guess I should not have been surprised at all the people given the state of employment in this country but these people were nuts.

I was there the worst one of all, though. The 1986 game where we led 17-0 in the fourth quarter and lost 18-17.; 1:56 PM

Nice work.; 2:30 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: Jet, I think you are like me in remembering the losses. Sometimes those stick with me longer than the wins. I watched that AU-UF game on closed-circuit in Beard-Eaves. UF was on probation, so couldn't be on TV. Kerwin Bell brought them back on one good leg. I was so p.o.'d. One of my friends was almost in tears after the game. I can still remember walking up Donahue and him saying, "Auburn is never gonna win the national championship." That pissed me off even more. Good thing I couldn't see 2004 at that point, or I might have believed him.; 2:35 PM
Norm said...: Chocolate - I was there too. Did you see me?; 2:41 PM

Seanzie said...: Eddie, even though you didn't get a chance to go last night, did you enjoy the beatdown?; 11:54 AM
Eddie McCoy said...: Sean- I enjoyed it, but it was very bitter-sweet for me, especially the bottom of the 4th.; 12:03 PM

Seanzie said...: Because he just gets lucky and I think everyone knows this.; 12:25 PM
Seanzie said...: And something about his ten gallon hat rubs people the wrong way, I think.; 12:27 PM
wartiger said...: Les Miles lost some coaching credibility with me after blowing that 21 point first half lead to TN..that was bad coaching...that being said he did win a national championship and regardless if it was Satans players or not you must be doing something right to do that. So I don't really have anything against Miles. I don't think he will be the coach as LSU for very much longer. Fans in the SEC are a fickle bunch and he had a sub-par year last year..one more of those and they'll be remembering the TN game and forgetting that national championship...; 12:30 PM
Seanzie said...: Well let's see. Re: NTL Championship, I mean that team lost two games. Under most cirucmstances you don't go to the Ntl Championship game with 2 losses. He won fluky games against UF and AU at home. He was lucky to run into an overmatched tOSU team. I feel like he used up all his luck for one year. Last year he lost 5 games and probably could have lost more.; 12:34 PM

Seanzie said...: Bobby Johnson is a good coach, it's remarkable that anyone can win at Vanderbilt. He took them to their first bowl game and won. It will be interesting to see what he can do now that they've climbed out of the basement.; 12:59 PM
Seanzie said...: Sensi, a couple of more posts and we can at least turn it one more time and freshen it up.; 1:00 PM
