Former Georgia Southern OC suing
He probably believed them when they said it’s ok to run something other than a true option attack.

RE: Former Georgia Southern OC's suing
Quote:After being offered the job by Summers and receiving formal offer sheets, both David Dean and Rance Gillespie signed 18-month contracts on Jan. 27, 2016, that established June 30, 2017, as the end of their term.
Both coaches claim that more than nine months later, they learned the school’s Board of Regents and the Georgia Southern University Athletic Foundation never signed the contracts. According to the lawsuits, Summers notified the coaching staff on Nov. 3, 2016, that new contracts were being prepared.
The second contract, which was given to the coaches following the 10th game of the season on Nov. 16, had changed the end of the agreement to Feb. 28, 2017.
The lawsuit alleges that Summers, Kleinlein, senior associate athletics director for business operations Jeff Blythe and director of football operations Cymone George “conspired to change the terms of the January Contract and specifically the employment end date” in order to save money, knowing they would be making coaching changes on the offensive staff.
That's a whole lot of not good. That's conspiracy to defraud.

Wow. If true that’ll hurt chances of hiring anyone worth a flip down the road.

This is just the latest scandal in a long line of red flags that should have sent our AD packing. Hopefully, our new president puts his foot down and sends corrupt Kleinline packing before he does permanent damage to GS's reputation.

Hell anybody can fill that position. Pitch left, pitch right, Fullback dive, play action pass, QB keep. In no particular order.

RE: Former Georgia Southern OC's suing
Tom Kleinlein has been a good AD that has more than doubled the athletic budget, but man it seems like we have shenanigans going on constantly with football coaches.
There was apparently some really bad blood between TK and both Jeff Monken and Willie Fritz when they left for their current jobs. Fritz had a really strange clause in his contract where the terms changed if the president left which still has never been explained.
Now this.

Last year is what you get when you have coaches who think there's nothing to the option but runnin' real fast to the perimeter and hoping you beat the defenders. Gillespie is a spread running coach and David Dean is an air raid coach. Neither clearly knew what the bleep they were doing on the offensive side of the ball.

Is Ga Southern running tight on money? You'd think they would just pay to save themselves the embarrassment.

I imagine this is likely to be settled outside of court, but that's not going to prevent the story from being posted.

Everybody makes bad hires and ends up eating salary they don't want to pay. Must say that's a novel solution.

Pretty sure that you always make sure the opposing party signs the contract. As far as I know, there no law to enforce in regards to both parties not actually signing a contract.

How the heck were these guys receiving a paycheck if the contract wasn't in effect? Especially considering this is a state employee and the GA BoR has to sign off on it.
Unless there are some pertinent facts that are being left out of the lawsuit document, GS is at least morally in the wrong here, if not legally in the wrong.
And like I said, what makes this seem more credible is that Jeff Monken and Willie Fritz both apparently left GS with a figurative middle finger to the AD's office.
