Supposedly the neutrals of the powers that be have to get on board. What fans aren't realizing unfortunately is I think this is how they view it: Georgia is a pseudo top 10, Texas A&M first man out from playoffs, Bama #1 on a historic run, and a fluke loss to SCar. If you're Gus and the board isn't as die hard as we are that's a pretty easy sales pitch to make especially when you're expensive and you came into the year with an all-new starting OL and mostly new starting DL. THESE AREN'T MY OPINIONS Just playing devil's advocate on why the board isn't doing anything... yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the last 5 years and right up to today I have been accused by some other "fans" of not being "true Auburn" or not supporting the university. I shouldn't have to defend my fandom but I can assure those fans that I have cried with pain and joy over this team since 1985. My first real Auburn experience was watching the Iron Bowl that Van Tiffin made that damn kick and having to listen to the idiots at school the next week. I survived the Eric Ramsey crap and watching Dye walk away and breaking my heart. Incidentally my son's middle name is Patrick for a reason. I survived the Bowden debacle in -98 while I was in school at Auburn. I could go on but honestly I have lived and died by Auburn football Saturdays both great and terrible and never ever through any of it have I been more apathetic about football than these last few years under Gus. Win/loss record be damned we just need some new energy in this program. Well said, our stories are very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not be a done deal yet but there is a lot more support now to get rid of him than there has ever been. If he loses to Mississippi State he is toast IMO. The comment that he made sat after the loss did not go well at all. What's insane is (and I believe you that it may) that the Miss State game has any bearing on anything. If we win by 100 or lose by 100 it means nothing. We learn nothing new about Gus. We know who he is and what he can/can't do. I guess there are power brokers desperate enough to believe a strong showing in Starkville is proof Gus may still right the ship? Definition of insanity.

Might have more to do with timing of signing day. You let Gus go today and you have less than 2 weeks until recruits sign. Can you get another coach committed and on the trail by then? Seems that most of the candidates are all still coaching games. Not impossible, but difficult to pull off quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,039 Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Ok. I'm officially hopeful. If this doesn't happen it will be a bigger let down than getting excited for the Star Wars Sequel trilogy only for the Last Jedi to completely crap all over it.
