Eagle-1 3,821 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Kiffin at Auburn might just institutionalize Nicky. Lane gets in his head. Couldn't write it better in a novel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if God used covid to keep Cristobal away then is this him using it to bring Napier to us? His schedule just freed up lol Doesn't CC deserve it since they won head to head in the regular season?

At this point - even though its an integral part of my cultural heritage, if not DNA, makeup - I am seriously questioning the entire "College Football/Money/NFL" complex. I mean seriously, $49 million contracts? Are we going crazy? Are you serious? What did Bloomberg spend in Florida? Wasn’t it 150 million?

AuburnEagle79 2,168 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I think the train thing in twitter is referencing stopping the Steele hire, right? I've seen others tweet the stop the Steele hashtag with the train Emojis after it. I'm young and still don't have a clue what most of the stuff on twitter means...

Joey Freshwater would need to start eating at the wellness kitchen cause that dude has gained like 80 lbs since he stepped foot in Mississippi.

Eagle-1 3,821 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I would be willing to bet the geniuses on the search committee haven't even remotely thought about Kiffin. I swear folks, you better be glad that Muschamp didn't win 5 games at USC this season, or he would be candidate No 1. Tell me I'm wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think because of the stress that comes with the job (people constantly calling for your head) that coaches *do* deserve to be paid substantially more than your average worker, yes that includes teachers, but not to that level. Salary levels before January 3, 2007--when $4M annually was considered a ludicrous amount--are just fine, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet entertainment is so important to us that people can make tens of millions a year because they can throw a ball fast, kick a ball far, hit a little ball into a hole 200 yards away. The whole idea is preposterous. I feel very strongly about this, yet I am a hypocrite. Or at least sucked into the mentality that permeates society. Open the bank vault for our new coach if we must!

The athletic department brings in something like $650M* a year, and even with all the expenses we come away with a $47M* profit. *Numbers may be off some, but the point remains.

Using this forum as a population sample, you're pretty well one of a kind. This is the message board subset of the Auburn fan base. I know a lot of people that don’t come on here or any of the forums, and they are let’s just say different from a lot of the folks on here.
