Saw that AD was given a $7million buy out. It's been my experience that if he was 'caught' doing something wrong, there'd be a clause in his contract that would absolve Xichigan from any payout. If it was 'college choice', then they would have to payout the remaining contract (or negotiate a lesser amount). If he was being set up as the fallguy, then they'd pay him the moon and stars (as he is being paid). He could be terminated to protect the President (if he had his hand in the pot), but in any of the above cases, he would take his box of stuff and leave immediately, and would in no earthly reason, stay on board till the end of the year. Folks, there's something below this surface that isn't being acknowledged. And would betcha he is signing a NDA to NOT tell his side of the story, or write an expose book.
