I Malzhan worth that? Does Arkansas have that kind of money? Does the other Arkansas have that kind of money?

I honestly don't know the answers.

And then there's the matter of buyouts. It's just Jimmy Sexton's push for his commission. So they might could land Gus for 7 million, but that's just the beginning. The buyout comes next and that means that they have to jack it up even more to cover what Gus might have to pay to leave early.

But, since Florida State's going to be in the mix for another coach there's a good chance we get some more significant movement so maybe Auburn let's Gus go for the buyout and uses that cash to muscle up on a new coach.

We'll see.
