If it’s known that he has been/is actively seeking “greene-r” pastures, it makes sense to buffer the impact of him doing so. Having someone in place to keep the ship pointed in the right direction, so to speak. I would be totally cool if that was the reason for the oversight. Makes total sense. So why all the stories about people unhappy with budgets and saying Greene is not doing his job? Seems like people always want things to be drama filled. Setting it up so if he leaves we can save face and say he was on his way out anyway. Like who the hell would care if Greene decided to take another AD job? You are not going to find many none JJ types that are going to come in as Auburn AD and think that is the final stop of their career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty easy to see what happened you are pretty determined to say I called you a troll. I guess the most I can do is see how the wording may have led you to think that, but I explained it and you called me a liar. I know you can see that I didn't call you any names as well. So it is what it is. I'm just going to get back to joking and posting like I always do. I wouldn’t think it’s a big deal to PM me. Actually I even tried to do it before this blew out of proportion but your inbox is full again. There isn’t anything to be ashamed of to be bigger men and talking in private (not being mean).

You are not going to find many none JJ types that are going to come in as Auburn AD and think that is the final stop of their career. I totally agree. I seem to remember that there was some concern over the way he handled that initial potential job change, at least professional courtesy wise. Again, I have had a beer since that all went down so I may be way off. I also figure this thing is kinda like a good gumbo. There are all kinds of things that are going in there to determine the final recipe/outcome. Budgets, relationships, over sights, okra, filé, shrimp, etc… 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as basketball the shoes and stuff you get is more important than football.

Maybe it was the old staff that was stingy, but apparently they had to kick and claw for gear at times. Should be free flowing. I have multiple UA shirts that are a decade old and I work out in them weekly. The gear isn't bad, outside the shoes. The shoes are probably the worst in the industry. It's surprising they can't get better at them. They've tried to hire a bunch of competitors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastAl_Tiger 225 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I can't read 8 pages so sorry if this has been covered. the guys on the Montgomery noon radio show (charlie trotman and a bammer and some other guy) said that: a) Greene is obviously not Gouge's guy. a Leath hire. so there is that. b) Gouge put the kibosh on the Steele for Head Coach. Greene was evidently going to let it happen. c) Several coaches went directly to Gouge to complain about the mgmt of the athletic dept 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So not coming at you, but the guys who reported this. If this was the case and he had to stop it, why is AG the AD? Some of this stuff makes no sense. I do believe the ultimate issue is point 1.

I thought it was because he had the ability to fundraise, bring fiscal stability back and clear out the usual mess by being an outsider. It’s weird how recently there is this 180 of support against him. Adidas!! That is all.. I’d be down with Nike, though. UA gear is wack, except for the stuff with the vintage logos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's running a multi million dollar business like he's still at Buffalo. Things like most of our teams having to take the bus on road trips most of the time definitely put our teams at competitive disadvantage & are inexcusable, especially given most of the SEC schools aren't bussing near as much as we are. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeek 16,650 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Yeah PM's full article about the situation doesn't paint a pretty picture. It will be really interesting to see what happens when a new president is selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
