Pate mentioning that some boosters like James Franklin made me retract my opinion on getting MC quite a bit 

that would be just insane if we could pull off lol

You rather have CJF or CMC?

I got you 5, just in case. Went ahead an picked up a large Dr Pepper Icee for the road. Oh, and some pickled quail eggs for snacking on later. Looks like it’s gonna be a long day.

 

Also picked up one of these bad boys in case @augolf1716shows up.

Please tell me that "family pack" (lol) is/was a real thing.

Here’s the kicker here. Why would he be following 12th yr Sr Eli Stove?

I heard the Mario just started following Reese’s miniatures and fun size Snickers on Twitter. Obviously it’s all coming together now

He is obviously a man of taste

Because he's going to be 13 year senior Stove next year.

I take it back. I just noticed he followed Eric Wilson, the GT from Harvard. Don’t think Oregon had interest in him before. Also, he wasn’t following Seth Williams 15 minutes ago when I checked. And now he is..... I’m trying not to get my hopes up haha

Let me know when he is following Tank.

S/O to lil mook or whatever. 

[AuburnTiger4Life 2,225]

I really don’t wanna get my hopes up... but why would he follow a bunch of Auburn players for no reason? He doesn’t seem like the type of guy to troll. And it would also be pretty tasteless to do that to the guys who just lost their coach

Pardon my lack of knowledge but would he be the first non-white head coach in Auburn's history?

Damn, I wish Stove would stick around just so he’d get one year of good coaching. That dude has worked his ass off and deserves that from Auburn

He isn’t following Bo either. Maybe he thought following those 2 would make it obvious haha

Source? Everything I've seen says that the players aren't especially happy about him getting fired. 

People connected to the program have talked about it numerous times and I have brought it over from what I’ve read it from people connected to the program.

Yep. I knew he was bound for greatness. His mother sold my wife a Coach Purse the summer before his FR year....great woman...great family...Great Auburn man

"Say hello to my lil' friend", as Shivers, coached by MC, runs through defenders for a phenomenal touchdown. Sounds beautiful!

James to me would be the best COACH we could get. Hugh had that title, but James's defenses at Penn St schematically impress me more than what Freeze allowed at OM. Aside from coaching, way more culturally acceptable amongst the boards than Hugh.

And I also think he and his staffs are comparable enough (and young enough) to Mario's, in terms of recruiting value. I think that would be the A+ hire, while MC wavers between A- to B+ for me. Not saying I wouldn't be satisfied with MC btw
