Mikey 16,625 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Kudos to Gus. According to TV news he gets $4 million a year and an extension. You haters can eat your hearts out. He's not Auburn's coach so why do you even care? Jealousy must be a miserable burden to bear because y'all can't seem to shake it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s with these stupid administrators throughout college football who spend millions and millions of dollars for underperformance. I don’t blame the coaches for taking it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem with Gus I see him in Publix from time to time give him a War Eagle and get one back. He only live a few miles from me seems much more relaxed then before. I'm sure if I could still play golf I could hook up with him to play. Wish him nothing but the best. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus lost 5 games this season but his fanboys have been quiet as a church mouse. I know someone will say he only averaged 4.5 losses a year at Auburn but I prefer to round up. If you go checkout the Chiefs v. Raiders games from tonight, you'll see KC's version of Gus's whirly bird. It is very impressive. yeah well we’re still pating him over $2 mill/year so we own some of those UCF losses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowebb11 9,330 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 He’s down 24-0 to Kansas right now. Kansas is pretty good these days and I’m happy to see that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's definitely curious. When Goofy Gus got the $49M extension in 2017, one could somewhat justify it because of the totally unexpected wins against top-ranked uat & UGA, and the fear of losing Gus to Arky (lol, that still cracks me up having to write it.) But this time there's only an unprecedented loss to a bottom dwelling Baylor team. The optics look terrible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think he visited Publix, etc… here. Know he drove thru Taco Bell one night and ordered 33 tacos. I would think Gus is a good fit for UCF. Have no problem with him. He sure had a way of making Saban feel uncomfortable most years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUwent 3,754 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) Gus is a good guy and I hate wishing any ill on him but this makes us look less bad (nationally, I mean) for parting with him. Edited October 7, 2023 by AUwent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t make us look stupid at all. Just forking out the contracts and money head coaches get today. Have to admire Gus in a way. How many folks would even think about working further with his exit parachute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was dumb on Leath's part, and it wound up costing Auburn millions to pay Gus not to coach. I don't even think that's debatable. Now UCF has just said, "Hold my beer Auburn." They just extended the contract of a guy who has yet to win his first Big 12 game. It's almost comical. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURex 2,011 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Hmmm ... I now seem to remember that Malzahn is now coaching at some lower level Florida school. But I never can remember which one. South Florida? Florida Atlantic? Central Florida? North Florida? West Florida? South-Central Florida? Why is this even a topic here at AUF? He be gone. Like Harsin. Gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle-1 3,821 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Meanwhile, Jeff Brohm has Louisville at 5-0, and has mighty Notre Dame on the ropes in the third quarter. If Auburn has listened to me in 2021, and hired Brohm we wouldn't have had to go through the Harsin debacle. 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
