He's been bought out. He's gone. It's mute.

I still think we could have filed for breach of contract after the first year because he did not really handle the OC duties he was hired for.

This is the key part to this contract:

If he didn't accept the reassignment then we would be able to do this:

Ladies and gentleman, there's a good chance A&T will not have to pay Fobbs all of the $165K he still has left of his contract.

that is pretty straight forward. The university's ability to reassign is pretty vague and does not have any requirements associated with it. The way I read is that we have the ability to reassign without cause or notice.

I was in Monroe Louisana the last two days and had some extra time tonight so I went to a Louisana Monroe basketball game. I had on an Aggie jacket. Actually had a guy come up and ask me about Coach Fobbs. I think Fobbs is from Monroe.
Great b-ball game Monroe won on a last second shot after going down 16 points .

I think Lee Fobb's son and our ex football DC (Adams) are now coaches at Louisana-Monroe.

What constitutes "his money?" The newspaper said he'd be paid for the remainder of the year, so I'm guessing that's the money he'll get. Outside of that...

Someone please tell me why are we even revisiting this topic again? The AD fired him. He got his entitled settlement from Battle and the BOT without any fanfare. He's gone. End of story.
Can we move onto something more relevant like is it going to be Frazier, Webster, Lee, Ragsdale, or Mr. Unknown taking over the reigns come January.

I think the issue here (to me anyway) is less about Coach Fobbs being released and more about the available funding/budget. If there is more paid than was reported it makes for a tighter budget.

I don't care if we have to pay the next coach with food stamps the chancellor and AD made the right move to get rid of Fobbs.
