When you're not winning football games, the last thing you want to do is give them a good reason to fire you for cause.

He gets nothing if fired for cause. I’m guessing they’ve been digging up dirt on him to void that horrific contract.

producing larger than expected results, he was done for, and they'd use anything to get him.
The Courts are laughably corrupt at this point, and it is only a matter of how far they want to go to destroy him.
"Black" men finding out that they are no different than "white" men - they're just men without rights.

I just said that "morality", "ethics", and "lawfulness" are being applied entirely wantonly across the spectrum of men, black or white.
There is no equitable standard anymore - the Criminals that run society do not want one. Law & Order is a foreign concept when integrity fails.
Women, however, more often than not, get a pass.
If Martin Luther King Jr. had been held to the same standard that Tucker has been fired for, well the Civil Rights movement would never had been "a thing".
But again, not that it was "right" - what is wrong is how we "administer judgement" on the various circumstances.

His contract was fully guaranteed

and they owed him close to $80 million.
"Tucker was in the second full season of his 10-year, $95M contract — the third-largest ever given to a football coach at a public university."

As long as he wasn’t fired for cause. They don’t owe him anything.

Right, but they still might end up paying him a settlement to avoid going to court.

Most likely his contract has a "for cause" clause. In the case of sexual harassment he would be fired for cause which means the contract wouldn't be payable. They'll probably settle outside of court for a fraction of his contract.

because they could fire him for cause and cancel the last 7 years of his ridiculous contract without having to pay him.
He discovered the transfer portal a year ahead of everyone else, had one great season and got paid. Once everyone else started using the TP, the fact he was a sorry coach was exposed for all to see.

Had a sexual harassment lecturer speak to the team to relate her experience and then according to reports hit on her when she was there. You just shake your head at this reasoning.

I wouldn't necessarily presume that he actually "hit on her"
Sep 10, 2023, 6:30 PM

that's totally subjective. And women have weaponized the presumption of anti-women behavior. It's the world they think will give them "power". They're not just wrong - they're naive about the nature of evil.

Never have phone sex with a woman who was gang raped and Is a sex victim advocate.
Plus he is married. Bad judgement.

NEWSFLASH - being stupid around females can get you fired.
I can’t feel sorry for people that can’t grasp or abide by a minimum standard of behavior that has existed for every second of their entire adult life. You act like an idiot and you’re going to be treated like an idiot. Simple as that.
