We do if we stop going to the games. Saturdays bring a lot of money into AU. I won't spend a cent in Auburn until Malzahn is gone. This includes basketball and baseball.

aubaseball 2,595 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I know it goes against what everyone wants for auburn, but if you want him fired you hope he loses the rest except ULM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always wondered that All I've heard is that he wanted absolute control...ability to hire and fire anyone related to football. Saban like control and that didn't fly. That was the rumor at least. It worked out for him though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one do not want Jacobs making another hire . How strong are the chances Jacobs get the axe before December ? I'd say 100 % Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,782 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I think a lot of where we go from here depends on the injuries. Losing Dunn and Matthews on top of those that were already out was critical yesterday and it will be going forward. I think we beat Arky and UL Monroe. A&M is a toss up but I give them the advantage playing at home. UGA and Bammer are much better than us. Looks like 7 -5 to me. I see no way Gus hangs on with that scenario.

milehighfan 1,240 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 If Gus the Great is given the boot, and IMO it won't come fast enough, how much consideration will be, would be, should be given to Heath Evans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAYLORKEETON 790 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I'm just ready for Gus to go. I've never been one to call for his job. I've always have him the benefit of the doubt. After Clemson this year I blamed our OL & Stidham's lack of game time....but after yesterday, HECK NO. Many posters said there would be no excuse if we lost yesterday, and I'm sticking to that. Gus has to go. Sooner the better. He was out coached by Ed O. I mean, really. Bye bye Gus. Hope he pulls a Gary Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,662 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 A lot of people were mad at me back in 2015 during that JSU game that I hope we lost, and I’d just like to show them the timeline we live in now where we’ve had several losses that are actually more embarrassing than that one could’ve been. We could’ve hired someone back in 2015 that would already be in year 2 of their cycle (maybe Kirby!!!) and showing the country auburn isn’t a joke.

I think they were just more so hurt by how integrated he was into the Alabama success back when. I was too to some degree but the dream that we could’ve fielded a team annually that would be close as dominant as some of the ones he’s been on (has a Richt, Saban, and Bobby pedigree!!) had me thinking. Currently looks like the next great head coach and ended up landing only a few dozens of miles away....life of an Auburn fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,822 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I thought Kirby wanted more information than we were willing to give to a guy who may not get hired and run back to our biggest rival with a microscopic and detailed view of our entire program. Honestly at the time it was the right move not giving Smart those details. Hiring Gus at that time, though yielding an SEC Championship and a #2 finish, was not the right move for the long term health of our program.

KolchakAU85 430 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 As a school that has almost always hired "Up and Coming" coaches that we ended up firing, it's now apparent that we shunned a for-real "Up and Coming" coach: Kirby Smart. We let him slip right away. And chose Gus Malzahn. Oh, the pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBiGGiE 2,488 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I'm still in the bargaining phase so I suppose going forward means I'll be throwing one up there for some divine intervention...? Guess I just love Auburn more than I hate Gus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
