If you thought Gus was mediocre with talent. Wait till next year. Kelly Bryant is not coming here. All of our uber talented DL will have graduated and most likely have gone to the NFL. Our OL will still be awful. Defense will take a huge step back losing not only most of our DL but Darrell Williams and our defensive MVP Deshaun Davis as well. There is no saving him this time. But it sucks that it takes all of the bottom to fall out for Gus to finally get canned. He should be gone NOW. We should be discussing in excitement who our next coach is going to be. Not being miserable saying how next year does not matter and we cannot be excited for a season again till 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcivE09 582 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 So the big question... did we settle what JABA means? I can only assume we are not referring to a fat women playing xbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. By the time he is gone the talent will be gutted and we will have a roster that is closer to Arkansas in talent than Bama, LSU and UGA. TAMU got out Sumlin when their roster still was stocked decently full with talent and now it is paying off seeing as how Jimbo is recruiting lights out this year.

Idk about you but I want auburn to be good, I want them to take that next step, like the basketball program is starting to do.

OHHHHHH that stupid stupid stupid fluke win vs Jimbo is what really made this clustereff of a situation all possible. If he had lost that one they would of just booted him without even presenting him this offer of a reduced buyout. BUT NOOOOOO. In the true Auburn way when we win we lose lol.

I guess what I’m not getting is, why make an offer they expect him to decline anyway. Why go through the machinations? Just fire him bc that would have been the only alternative if he had not accepted it. I guess I dont get the benefit of their little chess game unless they really were trying to retain him at a lower rate. It’s late. I’m sure I must be missing something.

oracle79 3,569 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Any chance @cole256 could redirect a load of nuclear waste to Jordan Hare and shut this crap down for a year or two?

AUwent 3,756 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 At this point, I think the most valuable discussion we could have is who we should go after next year. Venables for me, maaaaaaayyyyybe Aranda. Oh and #FireLeath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read somewhere that the IIC (Idiots In Charge) wanted him to decline negotiation so they might move ahead with declaring his extension contract null and void because of technicalities. They could then afford to buy him out. Must have been a real chance of that happening because Gus agreed to a contract revision. Not sure that's it, but that's what someone else guessed. Don't know if I really believe any of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
