If they lose to both Auburn & Georgia, that'd be the sixth straight season with four losses or more. At this point it's starting to become difficult to ask donors for $ if that's the ceiling and there's no sign of improvement.

edit to add: He's currently the 6th highest paid coach in the country, right now they're decidedly not getting their money's worth. A negotiated deal might be the happiest outcome for all involved.
