That said, we will know tomorrow what he's going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnTiger4Life 2,225 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 BOT is gonna have some explaining to do if he agrees to that contract. And DONT say AU didn’t have enough money to beat that offer because there’s many posts on here that explains how they do! That’s all. Goodnight!!

Clam down. 10 hours ago, cole256 said: Well we could say this for all QB's then but I can accurately evaluate what I see and I'm going to do it, like I do every other person You are most definitely right. That said, would you say we have been able to accurately evaluate anyone other than physical rarities like Derrick Brown and Nick Marshall? To me pretty much every other player post 2013 was underutilized...maybe KJ but in 8 years we have seen many more underperforming on the field. Seth Williams could of been a 1st round pick if he went to Bama. 10 hours ago, WarEagleHunter1221 said: I agree that his name even being involved is an embarrassment. However this ain’t about the embarrassment. It’s about the players turning against the fans for talking down on a coach who really ain’t done nothing. It’s unrealistic to hope he’d pull himself out of the race. He probably believes he’d be a good candidate. Then #StopSteele it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were multiple reporters reporting these numbers, but I’m not familiar with any of them or sure of any of their credibility. As far as Crepea goes, I wasn’t a fan of his when he reported for AU. Maybe he meshes better with the culture up north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTaz 109 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Cristobal is ripe for the taking to bring him back to the Southeast! Plus he’s gotta be frustrated with the way PAC 12 has handled the season. Auburn can beat what Oregon is offering easily... If Auburn screws this up and hires Steele everyone is going to start missing Malzahn. 💩 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as a lot of people didn't like Crepea when he covered AU, he's not just going to put this out without being confident in it's accuracy. It's also very specific information. Most likely accurate. I think Oregon has probably put together their best offer. They are seeking approval to counter with this. They are constrained by COVID budget issues and staying in family with PAC12 salaries (member schools aren't interested in inflating salaries by $3M each).

Does he want less money but also less pressure, better facilities, and the chance to be the dominant Pac 12 program? Or does he want more cash but also more pressure, a better recruiting base, and the chance to dethrone arguably the best ever? I'm a competitive guy, but man, option A isn't a bad choice. I'd have a hard time leaving Oregon for the snake pit that is Auburn football. Even for an extra $2.5M per year. It's been proven already that Oregon can compete for a national title. If that's his ultimate goal, I don't know why he would leave other than money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBlueWDE 1,136 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 So tomorrow should go one of two ways that would give us a clear picture of where Mario stands... 1) somebody like Crepea or maybe even Oregon PR puts out a press release saying the contract extension is approved. No comment from MC bc he is busy trying to win a game. Good for us 2) MC publicly thanks OU for the new contract. Bad for us We are just trying to make it to Saturday morning without MC talking about the OU contract extension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdp5150 167 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 If MC is going to sign that pathetic extension then AU will unofficially leak their offer to save face. I know we heard 7.1 but they will truly let it leak. No way they let the fan base think they lowballed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
