He's talking like Johnson is gonna CHOOSE to leave GT at a time of his choosing LOL

Fired at the end of the season is not choosing.

PJ's buyout is relatively low...

If Georgia Tech were to fire Paul Johnson during the 2018 season, it would cost the Yellow Jackets over $2 million. The exact total would depend on the date he gets fired.

Johnson’s contract stipulates his buyout as:

It is further agreed that if the Association terminates this contract without cause, the Association shall also pay Coach, as liquidated damages, the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for each of the 2018, 2019 and 2020 seasons or pro rata portion thereof remaining on the contract.

So...if the Jackets fire Johnson before the 2019 season, he’ll be paid a prorated portion of $1 million, plus $2 million to cover 2019 and 2020.

If PJ left for another coaching job, he would have owed the school $750,000.

"It is further agreed that if the Association terminates this contract without cause,..."

If I'm the GT administration, I see a loophole here. Without cause? Really?

The cause is that PJ is a crappy football coach and his team sucks a$$. Cause seems rather undeniable to me.
