Keep in mind, too, that the vast majority of these 4* and 5* recruits get treated like absolute royalty wherever they go and even the slightest fan criticism, let alone insult, is like sticking a dagger in their pride-inflated domes.

Exhibit A: Bo Nix

If fan tweets are running off players/recruits we’ve got the softest football program in the SEC.....

To be fair, jang hadn't posted in this thread since yesterday afternoon...I wouldn't say he's keeping this thread alive.

I have a 7, 5, 3, and 2 year old. So count me in the half that doesn't need assistance please.

My wipe-others'-arse to wipe-my-own-arse ratio is about 3:1 at this stage of my life unfortunately...

Always wanted a bigger family. Grew up in one. I'm only 32 and got the snip after the fourth. Doctor asked me about ten times if I was sure before I told him how many kids I already had.

Would take a bullet for every one and for my wife.

Auburn has changed greatly if the twitter fans have raised their rancor to exceed the toxicity of other schools. Auburn fans are generally tame, but I guess I'm not as in the loop as I used to be.

A small compilation from former players sounding off on PAM’s article of fans bitching:

Don’t shoot the messenger.

I am NOT Andrew Hughes

I was going to ask if you are Hughes. I am about to read further but this at the beginning

quote:

Quite frankly, some of it is deserved. That Bo Nix actually left the program after living a life where all roads led to the Plains and having one of the more impressive freshman seasons in recent memory is a travesty. Tank Bigsby almost left too, and we’ve seen former players like Big Kat Bryant have long-standing public grudges with the fanbase.


This just seems like bullshite. Tank almost left because of social media fans? Big Kat held a grudge due to social media stuff? Come the frick on. That's not how I remember it.

Eta: the article only shows tweets from Jordan Peters and has Schwartz and Burks laughing at him

That attitude will really help them win championships.... can’t handle criticism certainly can’t handle getting their arses kicked up and down the field. Coddled soft arrogant and incapable of handling adversity...

Now do UT fans.


Good grief, not everything is a 'thing'. So a handful of keyboard warriors aren't gleeful about how things have turned out.


And??

So a Harsin interview from 2 years ago. You just validated our point that this social media stuff has been going on for years at all schools.

Gus was given a $50,000,000 contract (spelled out for effect) and got all Pikachu face when he failed at his job. 80ish% of the starting QBs at AU over the past 20 years are at a minimum respected by our fanbase. The only two that aren't are scrubs (Bo/JJ) who sucked at their position. Another hot take from theSandman and his crew. Make up conflict (just like the coaching search) and have zero way for people to verify his source. Reeks of a dying business.

I really don’t care if all other schools do it.


Why?

Because
1 do they pitch warm feelings Auburn family sentiments as we do?
2. Why do we care what goes on elsewhere? If they jump off a bridge are you going to follow
3. Is it right just because other schools do it? People still bury Justin Powell on Twitter today. Is that right? What if the rumor is correct that he got his arse beat at Skybar and his dad yanked him outta there. Is it fair to continue badgering him?


We have now had at least Kerryon and Jordyn Peters call out the fans recently and the typical dumb answer about it is laughably “what do they know.”

As if we know more about championships and toughness than they do.


How many of us have been on their level?
