Is that a question or a statement?

Throw him in an off-the-field role, give him an office and a paycheck, and let him accompany Gus in all in-home visits.

Intimidation tactics.

While I would assume the NCAA would be willing to create for Takeo "The War fricking Eagle" exception for addiitional on field position coaches, I am okay moving Scott Fountain back into the offices

I don't think UCLA, USC, and Tennessee are really in it. I was wrong on Florida State, though.

This. Have him come on visits. He doesn't say a single word. He is just there, being him.

I'd commit in a heart beat.

...to hire a guy who hasn't even coached in fricking HS?

The whole "hire a former great player with zero coaching experience to an SEC level coaching position" theory is fricking absurd.

See: Wayne Gretzky and a million other all-time great players who couldn't coach worth shite.

Takeo Spikes is gonna be rich and retire if he doesn't play football anymore. He sure as hell isn't gonna want to bust his arse recruiting high school kids year round.

Yea, he can come around the university more. But he's not going to coach, I wouldn't really want him to either.

I wanna play the "Laugh at the dumbasses on the Bunker" game for a sec:

Fake Gabe Wright tweeted something about Roc Thomas really like Auburn right now. KK retweeted it, it was posted on the Bunker.

After about ten responses saying that it's "Fake Gabe Wright", some dude comes up and is all like, "I believe that's Gabe's real Twitter account"

It's not Gabe but whoever it is seems to be pretty good. He has predicting things correctly before they happened recently.

Yea, those guys are building themselves up for a meltdown. I'll believe Roc is coming to AU when they announce his fax has been received.

I feel comfortable with zero in-state guys.

To be honest I'm fine with letting Bama take them as long as we keep setting shop up in Atlanta and taking what we want from UGA

He's only 36 I think?? He could always get into coaching later on. He just doesn't stike me as the type that gives a shite about kids though

I agree. He may one day get into coaching, but right now I highly doubt he's going to be that excited about spending countless hours on the road recruiting kids that want college coaches to show them love.

If he's done with football, his arse is gonna be sipping fruity drinks and having butlers bring him cool, lemon scented towels by the pool of the Ritz in Aruba. At least for a while.
