11. Ross Bjork, Ole Miss. Ole Miss has had a stellar run since Bjork arrived in 2012, with the football team's rise under Hugh Freeze and a pair of NCAA tournament appearances and an SEC title for the men's basketball team under Andy Kennedy. Bjork hired neither,

JJ lives rent-free in allin's head.

allin has evidence that JJ kidnapped the Lindbergh baby.

JJ has done more than Bill Battle. Battle has done nothing but ride the coattails of Mal Moore.

Edit: He hired Avery "squeaky" Johnson. Who cares. JJ hired Muschamp, Pearl and Myers.

JJ also hired Gene Chizik, Tony Barbee, Sonny Golloway, drove David Marsh and Tommy Tuberville off, and has terribly mismanaged buyouts and contracts ever since he became AD. It's still yet to be seen how Malzahn will pan out, but hiring Bruce Pearl should not be that big of an achievement because he was out of a job and not a lot of schools were even willing to touch him. He will probably do great things here, but that's just the truth. Auburn can and should do better than having that buffoon as AD.

The only credit JJ gets for hiring Pearl is not standing in the way.

Our ENTIRE fanbase was shouting for Pearl. There wasn't even a close second figure our fans wanted

You must not have read the statements from Pearl about how Jacobs came to see him face-to-face and convince him to come to Auburn.

But it doesn't matter... if it reflects well on JJ, the He-Man JJ Haters Club is just gonna ignore it anyway, right?

thinking that all it takes to make a coaching hire to happen is for fans to "shout" for something.

I don't give a shite if that his nickname or not. His voice is annoying AF and as long as he sounds like a preteen that is his nickname imo.

The criteria seemed to change throughout. Exactly what has Bjork done to get put on this list?

I'm on the fence about JJ but the JJ haters say the stupidest shite. The most minor negative things are pegged on him and anything he does well. It's just "oh well that just fell in his lap"

Long @ #6 makes this list a joke. That contract of Bert's is like every bad JJ decision rolled into one.

Arkansas fans are stuck with Bielema regardless of the outcome of his coaching abilities.
