He's probably not in the loop anymore, but, at least until Malzahn became HC, he still had an office at AU.

Not debating that. But I remember seeing a pic of him on AL.com at the time Chizik was HC, and the pic was of him in his office.

He still has an "office"

it's more like a desk and area he can go when here for extended periods. it symbolic, he doesnt actually do any work in the office and is maybe there a total of a few hours a year

But you said undefeated and a ship! Member? I do.


14-1 'ship still in the works. Defense wins championships, duh.
AND we apparently still get to get rid of Malzahn and Jay Jacobs? This is better than Christmas


But I also member LSU fans thought they'd contend for the SEC and beat Bama with Danny Etling at QB and Ed Orgeron as HC at least Auburn isn't losing games by 30 and gettint blown out by the likes of Mississippi State

Shhhhh, dont tell other Bama fans that. Its funnier to let guys like Tuscaloosa believe that an 80 yr old with dementia is the puppet master of the program

Least surprising first reply ever btw

This office shite is ridiculous

Everyone repeats the same stupid fricking thing and claims it's from their booster friend, who is repeating some other dumb not-important person

Ehh, Finebaum knows something more than your softball, women's basketball, and the Gus and Lindsey offensive stuff. All of thats old news unless the new President found out his Lightfoot, Franklin, White investigation unearthed some dirt on the AD.

I don't tune into Pawl, I quit that shite over 7 yrs ago, but i bet there is something more brewing than softball and the offensive play calling.




Paul has zero connection at AU except the beat writers from the Birmingham News and his Bammer Buddies. Everyone forgets that Jetgate doesn't happen without Paul reporting it (TT went to him). He has nobody within Gus's Staff who will talk to him (remember the run-in with Gus's and Chizik's wives ?). The only one who will answer the phone if he calls is JJ, only because of his friendship with Slive. Like many on this site, Paul talks to Bama Fans for a lot of his information.

He does have one, fwiw. The shite that is ridiculous is that people think he has any decision making abilities. His office is merely a personal space on campus. We still pay him around 20k a year. But it's promotional/marketing/appearance related.

What payroll? He gets retirement from the state but does not receive money from Auburn. Open records laws and all.

It's probably related to the softball mess.

I don't recall ever even bringing that man's name up in the context you're using. Odd that you would bring me up.

Well, yeah. And in almost 20,000 posts, I can't remember ever bringing Dye up by suggesting he's calling the shots down there.
