Then by the time Bruce turned everything upside down and quite literally saved a program they didn't have the pull in basketball that they've always had in football. As a matter of fact, millions on millions of dollars was going to close the check books if they fired Bruce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnatl1 5,253 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 (edited) There’s been rumors everywhere about Deion -from being highly considered, to not all at all. Again - I think Deion is a once every zillion yrs opportunity that could change everything. I’d be disappointed and frustrated if they went with yet another “carbohydrate” hire. Dysfunctional, not very bright thinking. But dumb, self destructive can sort of be forgiven. Kind of like my lab. But if they hire Freeze, that would cross the line.

If these boosters truly felt threatened by Bruce, why wouldn't they be trying to get him out of here? I personally never said they felt "threatened" by Bruce. I'm just telling you why those that might want influence over Auburn Basketball now that its a national product aren't going to get it. Some would probably feel threatened by Deion Sanders because Deion Sanders can, at any time, throw up 2 fingers and dip out if people pull the same crap that they did last February with Harsin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, for the Freeze fans, your boy almost lost to attorney at law Gardner Webb but yea, he’s the best ever because he beat Bammer twice.

If true, if he wasn't even a thought now we know we have leaders that will never put us in positions to be successful.
