No Justifiable Reason Auburn Men's Sports are THIS Bad

Sorry but there just isn't. We're a few years away from relevancy in the Big 3 revenue generating sports. If its wasn't for the SEC Network money we'd likely be facing bankruptcy.
It feels like our AD is in complete shambles and I don't know how we got here or who to blame (outside of Jay Jacobs obviously). All I know is things should have never gotten this bad

Well....... We recently changed coaches in baseball and basketball. By all accounts, we've gotten some really good coaches in both cases.

Pearl will be fine. Don't care about baseball, malzahn will get it turned around as well. Auburn fans complain about money way too much

I'm ready to move on from JJ regardless. He's been long overdue to be replaced.

2016 is really do or die for both Malzahn and JJ.

That's what's weird I don't care about Baseball either but the fact we've consistently sucked at it for years bothers me. Same we Swimming & Diving. Auburn no longer dominating irks me.
Just very frustrated right now. The conference has changed so much in the past 5 years. I don't want Auburn, a Big 6 school, to be left behind

No fans do. I don't mind the AD sucks/fire JJ threads but they're never enlightening.

They're mainly for venting at this point. I don't think any of us are still holding out hope for change including JJ being fired.
Outside of writing strongly worded letters to the AD there's not much we can do. Feels pretty powerless and hopeless

Back whenever the JJ getting fired/stepping down stuff started (more seriously) in November or whenever, I mentioned that JJ is secure with the amount of access he allows to donors. That will continue to be the case.
You guys want JJ to neatly go away and it can't happen. Things on the plains will be super messy if he is forced out

Please don't get me started on the Good Ol Boy Network at Auburn. I'll be ranting for the rest of the night

Basketball we need another year. Extremely unlucky with injuries and not qualifying. Not terribly mad about sucking this year.
Baseball I care a lot about but we also fired the prior coach in an unusual circumstance. We made a regional the previous year. I think Butch can eventually do a good job but I fricking hate sucking so hard at baseball trust me.
Football I don't have a lot of excuses for. So fricking pissed about last year and the every game after the LSU game in 2014. That team should be fricking stacked and winning some games. They better find a fricking QB.

I wouldn't trust JJ with a potato gun much less a hundred million dollar plus AD

I don't care about basketball

Thanks for posting that useless post

If it's true about JJ and the good ole boy network and the chokehold they have on Auburn athletics, I'd be more than willing to see things get messy if it meant seeing them go too. It irks me more to think about this good ole boy network in control of our AD than to see JJ as the AD. I want to see it all change.

I knew this thread was coming when we were down by 25. Now I'm kicking myself for not calling it.

You guys are a funny bunch.
You recognize JJ is a yes man that answers to the money yet you believe that a new AD will bring about a change. The AD will work for the school, sure, but the school works for the donors. The same guys JJ answes to. We're going to wind up with another JJ, auburn man or not.

I just hope it's somebody who's done more than coach football and raise (and spend) money.
