Haven't read the article, but this stems back to a fight between the foundation and the University President. They are pretty unhappy with him for a number of things, including some things that foundation and university money were spent on, and--this is the biggie in my opinion--the fact that he did not play proper homage to the god of UGA, Vince Dooley--former football coach and athletic director--by renewing his AD contract.

The foundation pays part of the president's salary and I think they have stopped.
