Looks like I may have caused more issues than stopped them however.

AubFanCT 180 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Ive said it before and got killed on this board but ill say it again. If we are looking to be the greatest 4 to 5 loss team annually, then we can sit back and relax with our feet up because we have already succeeded. If thats the bar of success you set for yourselves, pat yourselves on the back. I think Auburn, could be better, i know we should be better and as a fan, yes, we deserve better. Were not Arkansas or Miss St were 5 to 6 wins is the norm. We need to hold ourselves to a much higher level of success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcware 1,365 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Look guys I see growth on this board!!!!! I have lurked for so long without posting and I think after today we are all on the same page!!!!! Hugs all around. Great job guys. How many member can pay up $1,000 to get rid of Gus? I’m in. Can we make a dent? Put the message out!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O&B 134 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Let me take a shot at this I am pessimistically changing the channel on the Braves game(for now) I objectively don’t think the SEC west matters at this point. I realistically think Gus needs to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gus apologists are very few and far between, but who cares anyway. You must just not understand how a forum works. It’s a very simple question. If you still support Gus, I want to know why. I don’t care how few of them there are, I want to have a discussion with them and know why they are still defending Gus. I want to know if they have finally had enough or if they still want to say it’s not his fault. I want to know what it will take to say Gus needs to go. If that makes you feel small or attacked that’s more of a you problem. War Eagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way he turns this around, but Greene will be looking for a new coach in two years. We want him gone soon but the way it works is after a season and he'll give him a pass for this one. Wrong the money was on the table already and they let Gus talk them into another chance. He has blown it. Buy out should happen now. Gus is just not cut out for D1 football and needs to go back maybe to non P5 coaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU120289 380 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 This year will likely be the tipping point. He is headed for a losing season, or it sure seems that way right now. While I hope that doesn’t happen, that adds way more pressure than 8-5 seasons of previous years. We will go down in college football history for the worst contract ever or close to it. He will go down as a punchline. Both sides can make this a better landing and show grace. While I don’t think Gus would do it, halving his buyout with a gracious statement of mutual appreciation and a mutual agreement on parting of the ways, would go a long way for both sides.

If the Gumps loose tonight, the SEC West is still up for grabs.... I say this^^ and also generally people would consider me a pessimist( I say realist) person. I am aware of the statistical probability of a successful season this year is low, I just cannot stand the constant hate this coach has endured from the fan base his entire tenure. I am a realist who wants Auburn to do good and support their coach. If Gus gets fired I hope the fan base is more supportive(no not tolerant for losses)...supportive.

I genuinely believe that all remaining games are winnable and we might win them. I also believe that we might continue to be trash and go 5-5.

The best thing for the players is getting them to the league. The best for the program is winning and not being embarrassed on national TV all the time.

I’m fed up with the results that have been displayed and demand better. I put that on Gus’s shoulders. I really hope he gets it under control And should be held accountable if what’s trending continues. I just hate the changing of coaches procedure in general.
