ToomersStreet 795 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 At some time today I expect we all will get some answers. Gus will have his weekly meeting Allen Green. What will come of it? We have known for at least the last four if not five weeks Gus plans on booting Chip(right or wrong). Gus fired Ellis Johnson 24hrs after losing the 2014 Iron Bowl. I felt if Gus was staying Chip would have been let go yesterday. I assess the reason Chip has not been let go yet is he is Gus does not know if he will be around to fire Chip himself. Time will tell but my best guess is Gus is still waiting to find out if he will remain our coach. I was told by someone who was once well connected to several influential trustees that "all" the boosters wanted Gus gone win or lose the Iron Bowl.

Could you expound on this sentence? "One well connected" implies that he or she is no longer connected, so how does that person know what the current thinking is? Just curious.

Thanks I think its humorous when one of the 99% (those with no inside info) try to come across as one of the 1%. Now if Toomers can do as you request and provide better info than he did that would be a very notable exception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURealist 2,185 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 The easy thing will be to allow Gus to make his excuses and to accept his hollow promises that the team will perform better next season. He'll be given a free hand to make staff changes. He'll fire some people. He'll make some more promises. He'll say he's changing things up. The future will be bright. His fans will cheer, knowing that we are at last on the right track. "It's not like Gus has forgotten how to coach..." We'll lose our bowl game. But that's OK! Gus is righting the ship that those fired incompetents so carelessly destroyed. And bowl games don't matter. 7-5 next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant to type "once well connected" And YES they are no longer directly connected with those individuals. Sorry, best intel I can give you.

jared52 4,354 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I can imagine Greene’s first words as Gus walks in: “If you tell me you had a good week of practice, that’s fireable with no buyout.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SphyNxXx 96 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Being reported by Marcello that Gus’s agency has been told to start looking for a new gig for him. Wondering if the wheels are turning for a mutual parting of ways to save face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they provide better information on this board, they won’t be 1%ers any more. The only way I think a poster is “connected to the program” is watch who posts what and, in time, see what information turns out to be correct. The board runs on speculation and opinion. That’s what makes it great. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aubiefifty 16,803 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 PMARSHONAU: Time for urgent action High-level meetings Sunday involving Auburn athletics director Allen Greene, head football coach Gus Malzahn and administrators. Per Longshore on AM740 out of Montgomery: According to Marcello, the agency (CAA) that represents Gus was told yesterday to start trying to find Gus another job. Marcello got this from two high level sources of his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuCivilEng1 11,012 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I have a bad feeling that Greene isn't going to do anything. Gus has us by the nads right now. Is there even a way to force him to fire Chip? Seems like Gus will just say, "if you want me to fire him, you'll have to fire me". Lol. Then we have to pay his stupid buyout. Correct me if I'm wrong.

corchjay 5,311 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Don’t know who these people are other then the reporters that say they have told Gus’ agency to start looking for another job. That’s not how this works. It’s usually we are going in a different direction or you’re fired. They don’t give you an opportunity to look for another job as the head coach. Just a personal opinion but I think Gus will be back with some new offensive staff changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
