"Support the team no matter what the kids deserve it and never be a fair weather fan. " If they choose KS we need empty stadiums. No season tickets. No buying merchandise. Nothing. Sell out other events. Go to women's soccer. Anything other than football. There has to be something done to change who controls what. We have one of the best ADs in the country now let him do his ******* job. They have taken advantage of this mindset for years. Hell, even this forum is an accomplice. “Auburn Family”. The implication being that if you don’t throw your support behind whatever crap “ they” try to throw out there you’re somehow disloyal. Expecting and demanding excellence, or at least striving for it, should take a back seat to joining hands and reciting the Auburn creed while those in power push their own agenda whether it’s best for the university or not. I may be thinking only for myself.....but if hiring Gus, putting up with his mediocrity for 7 years, firing him, and REPLACING HIM WITH KEVIN F’ING STEELE is what they perceive as best for then university...... I will renounce Auburn football certainly, maybe even the whole damn university because of the gross incompetence at “ the top”. I’ve given a bunch of my time, money, and emotional support for a lot of years.... but hiring Steele will absolutely finish me off and I will not look back. I hate it for those students that call from COSAM intermittently to chat me up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows the interviews, who’s the favorite? Who is most likely out of the candidates to get the job? Sark Napier Elliott brown Clark mario Riley From that list most likely to least I think you have it in the right order just flip Mario and Riley since MC just got a raise and extension Clark might be better than Brown but he hasn't been mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That QB they have is awful and has a noodle arm and they just won another conference title. But kirby and saban and dabo would love if we hired him. Wouldn't be afraid at him at all on the trail. I’ve actually heard he’s a pretty good recruiter. I mean, he’s not pulling in 5* guys, but no group of five school is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUscw2011 40 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 It seems as though every serious candidate other than Steele I can be sold on at this point. That has to be a bad sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Chump change) but yea, he’s without a doubt locked into Oregon unfortunately. That contract would have been higher if we would have actually offered which leads me to believe there weren’t any negotiations or contact between the two parties.

Let me help get this to 250 pages tonight. So, if they hire Steele, I am done. Gus has made watching frustrating for several years, and if I have to do that again, I'll just give it up and be a UAB fan. Man, this yeah I've discovered horse racing and MLS. I don't need AU football in my life to be entertained. Hire Steele and I'm just fine walking away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
