We all were kind of wondering what went down with ASA. Sounds almost unbelievable, but nothing surprises me anymore.

Some great roster management right there, if true.

inept and incompetent, almost looks deliberate

[auburnphan 2,052]

$7 million for this type of attention to detail, why, why, why?

[aujeff11 4,084]

OC in title only made 1.1 million dollars lmao. 

Gus: 7 mil 

other offensive assistants: probably 2 mil?

Great value for a dollar.

Read this article closely. There is no comment from (or apparent effort to reach) the AU coaching staff. This is taking place right in the heart of recruiting season. This is irresponsible, bullcrap journalism that suggests AU's coaching staff doesn't give a crap about it's players.

Well they have had all season to address it, no? We, the fans, found it interesting and nothing was said about it. Although I do find the mother’s quotes quite pointed. And in the article itself , it does say staff declined to comment.

Why does it matter if there is a comment from the AU coaching staff?  If he played in more than four games his red shirt is burned. Considering the limited number of snaps he took, or did not take, it was a wasted year for him. We have such a mickey mouse athletic department right now, in terms of the football program, nothing surprises me.

Dumb to the comment

I’m tired of everybody blaming the media. If you don’t want bad press, don’t make boneheaded decisions for them to report.  Own it — Gus and the coaches screwed up.  Unfortunately, they represent Auburn at the moment.

She’s definitely unhappy and who can blame her:

“That still was a lie and we knew this before the Mississippi State game,” Harris said of the participation chart. “That’s how bad the redshirt situation was mishandled.”

 

If this all went down like it appears it did, I’d be beyond pi$$ed if I was Asa and his family.

 

[cole256 3,010]

Smh at this. This is just pathetic, and sitting aroundand acting like this didn't happen like it will magically go away sounds EXACTLY like this coaching staff is known for

That's an insult to mickey mouse.

There is no excuse for this. There’s just not. 

[auskip07 426]

the offense all year was a cluster.    Did we expect him to actually play out all 4 years of eligibility?

Surely you understand the point at hand? 

[nixtosanders94 125]

We have got to be getting murdered on the recruiting trail right now.  This combined with the crap show surrounding Gus is just insane.

We should be. What parent in their right mind would encourage their kids to walk into that crapshow? I know if my kid was a major D1 talent, there is less than 0 (ZERO) chance I would let my kid go to Auburn right now. I'd straight up refuse to sign the paperwork. 

 

This is next level incompetence. They have every right to be furious about this screw up.

Has Gus owned this? Has he been asked about it by media and if so what was his response?  I’m just curious since he is supposed to be this fine upstanding man. I would assume he has come out and taken full responsibility for this?

[tomcat 12]

Complete inattention to detail. The other side of the state would never be asleep at the switch like this...

 

[gr82b4au 1,122]

This is old info. Came out weeks ago. 

Just another AU hit piece. Yay!

He's clearly considering it but then no...
