"The inquiry came after a number of players and coaches left during the
offseason."

In short, a very short leash.

From AL.com:

"Should Auburn part ways with the embattled coach, his buyout as of Dec.
1 would be $15,277,500 — which comes out to 70 percent of the remaining
value on his contract.

That number would be slightly higher if Auburn were to make a coaching
change before the end of the regular season.

Harsin’s buyout as of Dec. 1 ranks 30th nationally among college
coaches, though it’s worth noting that not every program provided buyout
numbers to USA Today. Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Arkansas were
among the SEC programs to not include buyout terms in the data provided
to USA Today. Without including Kiffin, Leach and Pittman — who all earn
more than Harsin this season — Harsin’s buyout is the eighth highest
among SEC coaches this year.

The league coaches with higher buyouts than Harsin as of Dec. 1 are
Smart ($103,104,167), Fisher ($86.7 million[OUCH!]), Kelly
($78,622,917), Saban ($43.2 million), Napier ($39,000,833), Stoops
($31,078,125) and Tennessee’s Josh Heupel ($25,833,333).

Then pay the 15 mil and toss him before the season starts. You just lost ANOTHER season at Auburn because you did otherwise.

They tie for least surprising since they both entered the season on the hot seat.
