#Fire Coach Dorrell

[Goose]

Based on media reports, it looks like CU woudl owe him well over $10 million if he were fired after this season, but again the contact could have caveats.

RG wrote the contract so…

I cant believe we are paying 3.8 mil to put this type of product on the field.

George had to apologize FOR Dorrell. Hahaha!

This is worse than KD not apologizing himself.

A complete and utter coward of a coach.

Scratch the coach. A complete and utter coward. Full stop.

RG wrote the contract so…

The buyout is $7.5 million until December 31st. It drops to $5 million the next day.

 

[Goose]

The buyout is $7.5 million until December 31st. It drops to $5 million the next day.

Be careful as there’s probably a clause in there that says the buyout drops to $5 mil the next day for 2 hours and then goes up to $15 mil.

RG bungled Tucker’s buyout. That is the real crime. We shouldn’t be in this position

 

[hawg1]

Of course it matters.

Yes. We treat all journalists with respect. Just like when he blew off KOA.

cBS4 for whatever reason it matters to you.

I am sure that all of that is probably true. However sometimes with a problematic employee you look for any small little thing that can be the excuse to take action against them, and you go with that. Plus, this is clearly embarrassing to CU, as RG just had to tweet that HCKD‘s apology for him, which is pretty weird. One would think that if it is worthy of the AD issuing a public apology on the coach‘s behalf, the AD would insist the the coach do it himself. HCKD does not have much of a twitter game himself, as almost everything on his account is a retweet, so maybe that’s the reason, but if it is worthy of RG making the apology for him, it is worth of him doing it himself.

Where these things can make a difference is when the AD sits down with the coach and says "I think you should save yourself the embarrassment of being fired and resign, let's talk about the buy out numbers and they will be less than the full contract."

The coach can choose to not want to negotiate but he risk the firing turning ugly and it impacting his future job prospects.

Umm no. CU is contractually on the hook for the entire buyout. Dorrell doesn’t care. He is a lifetime position coach. He will gladly take the buyout and accept an NFL WR job

Future job prospects? What future job prospects? Dude is going to take his millions and mail it in for as long as he can. I can’t even blame him for doing so.

It depends.

If he aspires to being more than a lifetime WR coach he will be concerned about how leaving here looks.

We also may not be aware of other incidents past or future that could be looked as as cause.

He certainly can choose to demand the entire contractual buyout but often there are reasons to negotiate.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't treat all journalists with the same utmost respect. I'm just saying it matters because some journalists and news organizations are bigger than others and have more clout.

He’s like 55. He won’t sniff any HC job ever again. He’ll take his millions like every other coach has done

OK. I gotcha.

 

[Creebuzz]

An NFL wide receiver coach makes +/- $400,000 a year. Dorrell is never holding another coaching job again. He scored a huge windfall to fail.

 

[Go Buffs]

Remember his presser after the A&M game when he was bashing writers for predicting a poor season?
Maybe the dude who got shoved today reminded HCKD of his lame ass comments three weeks ago.

 

[CULifer]

One of the few times I mostly agree with Rooney's perspective: https://www.buffzone.com/2021/10/02...flag-on-2021-if-bye-week-changes-dont-happen/

 

[The Alabaster Yak]

George had to apologize FOR Dorrell. Hahaha!

That is embarrassing

 

[Bliff Cranch]

Perhaps now the local media will remove their gloves?

 

[Buffnik]

Being classy/ honorable was the thing I most respected about HCKD.

He's lost his mind, folks.

 

[ahoelsken]

Not to mention that OL coach is a top 3-4 most important coach. And KD handed it to a a high school coach

General Gumbo makes Klayton Adams look like Alex ****ing Gibbs

 

[PAC MAN]

I’m getting the feeling that he’s gone after this season. Next two weeks are critical for this program with the bye and then the UA game at home. UA beats CU by double digits, BYE BYE!
