Never saw a conclusive, definitive report or info about what he did or didn't do. Lot of rumors and reports but no one, to my knowledge, saying "This is how is it is now."
Not that what was reported probably isn't true. Someone with knowledge leaked all that, either the agent or a Trustee member. But no one I've seen has given any firm statement. President Leath is an idiot, the Board clearly has some divisions or issues, and the AD is a figurehead.
The AU braintrust is hoping all this blows over and goes away. School is done on the 14th for the break and then it'll be basketball season. Auburn officials are great at screwing up, looking stupid and then waiting for it to blow over. They did the same with the softball scandal.
By January or February, any news media asking about it will be met with silence again or "That's in the past, we're moving forward. Why do you have to be negative?"

He has got to stay till next season and give Myers time to "recover" and be the next Auburn coach. Urban wants no part of facing Saban every year. Or any of the other SEC schools for that matter.
"Cull" is just another four letter word...

Seriously, this makes no sense. If they fired him, he would've gotten $32 million. Why would he accept less? To go back to your OP, I think like any head coach he believes he can make it right. Whether that's with him calling the plays, a new OC, or whatever, he's confidence is higher than anyone else's. Until they whack him he's going to maintain that, especially publicly. Can he? Dunno. Three O-Coordinators in seven seasons is stupid unless you're Saban and they're winning titles and going off to be HCs somewhere else. As for accepting less money, if he really did, that happens sometimes in the big biz world. CEO of Company AU has a bad year or two. Board whacks his pay, withholds a bonus, says he's docked 10 percent or whatever. He agrees instead of acting like a jackass and getting fired. Happens again, he knows he's gone. He rights the ship for 2-3 years and then maybe leaves or stays for another contract extension. But yes, it's weird to see that happening in college athletics if he indeed did take a pay cut to stick around.

It would be hard to hurt my feelings if you gave me 32 million to leave.

These stories make me wish newspapers weren't dead. Not that I know anything but we may never know "why?" If the info is correct both sides are maroons. Jimmy Sexton knows the truth but I don't think he'd say anything.

Yet Urban beat saban the only time they played each other while he was at Ohio State, but I’m sure you’re right. 🙄

Gus wanted more money for hookers and JUCO qb's so that his buddy Hugh would take the job. Makes sense to me....
