Post subject:  Gary Anderson turns down $2.7M & is one weird dude

For the second time in his bizarre coaching odyssey, Gary Andersen apparently declined to accept the remainder of the money contractually owed to him. According to The Deseret News, Andersen, who was fired by Utah State back in November, “refused to be paid the balance of his contract.” He reportedly told the school it “wasn’t his style” to be paid not to coach. He was owed $2.7 million — a $900,000 salary with three years remaining on his deal.

Here’s the whole article. https://us.yahoo.com/sports/for-second-time-in-bizarre-coaching-career-gary-andersen-turns-down-buyout-money-170513481.html

My favorite part is when he reamed his assistant coaches while at Oregon State...
"I hired the wrong (expletive) guys and are still working our way through a bunch of recruiting years that stunk!! It's year three! If these (expletives) can't get it right I will not just say fire them and start over!! That's not the way to go about it. If I (expletive) it up that bad I will take the bullet and ride off into the sunset! I will stay old school!! I will not die doing this (expletive)!! Stay tuned!"
