If what you mean by related is “is that him?” I think the answer is yes...
For the life of me, I can't understand why WRs would want to go to Auburn anyway.
Not related to “Yellow Teeth” Marshall. Yellow Teeth as a beat writer and and Yellow Wood as the booster that makes “the tail wag the dog”.
I have heard there is one other booster that is in on the buy-out so it would be less than the full amount.
I don't think that's needed. His buyout is something like $32 million, and while the big money boosters want to win as badly as anyone, they're not dropping that kind of cash to get him out of there. Zero chance. I mean, if one of them donated $10 million to AU they'd literally name a building after him, if not an entire college.
Funny.... The booster that supposedly said he would pay the entire buyout if need be has facilities and a college in his name already.
Guarantee that's big talk (if not outright rumor) - no way he writes a $32 million check to the very people who gave Gus this contract in the first place.
The story goes his willingness to offer up the buyout is what pushed Leath over the edge in giving Gus the new contract.
Doesn't pass the sniff test, imo. Not sure a BOT member giving verbal (non-contractual) word that he'd cover part (not all) of the buyout would even work...
