Report: Michigan's Warde Manuel to receive $7 million payout after stepping down as athletic director​

Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel will receive a significant financial package after stepping down from his position later this year. According to Front Office Sports’ Amanda Christovich, Manuel’s separation agreement includes a one-time payment of $7 million, along with retirement benefits and reimbursement for legal fees.

Just sayin': Well, $7M + retirement benefits + reimbursement of legal fees = the negotiated rate to keep a fired AD from "blowing the whistle" on scUM..... :lol:
Pure payoff to keep his mouth shut. Manuel shook them down like Paulie Walnuts extorting the local landscaping business.

Go back and watch the 2019 Game and you can almost see the moment. I think it was Dobbins long run. They panned to Harbaugh and you could see a fuse blew in that simple, chimp like mind of his.

I think his ego could somehow hold on after being bested by Urban but then when the protege beat him he fucking snapped.

Looking back now it all started after that 2019 edition of The Game.
I almost think it was the year before that when they came in to The Game in Columbus as favorites and got gorilla raped 62-39 by Haskins and Co. 2019 sealed it.

The more I think about this, the funnier it is to me.

I deal with shit like this a lot in my business life at this point so I can almost imagine it. They, apparently, tried to do what I said they'd do and lean on him to take less (thus the ~800K legal bills) and it failed so spectacularly he got every bit of his full benefits (down to golf privileges) and an extra million.

When your power move is so thoroughly trashed that you end up paying the other sides legal AND they put a penalty fee on you....man oh man. Tsun either hired Mother Fucker Jones to negotiate for them or Warde went full Terminator.

"Ok $7MM, full benefits and we'll pay legal fees but that's our final offer"
It’s annoyed me over the years how many people get paid off for their bad behavior and/or incompetence and get crazy sweetheart deals. Being fortunate enough to have a defined benefit pension myself, I’m very curious as to what the lifetime expected value of the pension that Manuel is going to get due to their waiving of rules re: duration of employment (and chipping in of cash too) is. That seems like a potentially huge payoff to me (don’t know how old he’ll have to be to start collecting) but is being barely reported on as a throw-in benefit.
