Funny stuff. I just don't see what all the fuss is about. I think if you give me about four weeks I could iron out any and all problems and/or details. Lately, our contracts have given me a headache.

Russ Campbell, a Birmingham-based agent, said it's just a matter of finishing the university's "approval process." That process includes review and approval of the finished contract by UA President Robert Witt, UA Chancellor Malcolm Portera and the UA System Board of Trustees Compensation Committee. The contract is expected to be worth $900,000 per year over six years and include a $1 million buyout. A seventh year will be automatically added if Alabama wins seven games this season. The contract also includes an incentive package, which could add up to as much as $600,000 per year and will include a $50,000 bonus if Alabama wins at least six games in 2003. Shula agreed in principle to the terms soon after accepting the job on May 8 and signed a letter of intent to sign the contract at that time. The negotiations apparently have not included the problems which marred the process of renegotiating Dennis Franchione's contract and trying to finalize Mike Price's deal. Campbell termed the process "relatively smooth sailing." ______________________________________________________ RollTideFan - The University of Alabama Athletics Discussion List "Welcome to RollTideFan!
