Jacobs should be relieved from his position. Just way too much corruption under his watch and underperforming overall during his tenure on top of that.

Jacob's is done but he won't be fired he will be allowed to retire if I'm not mistaken he is vested enough in the retirement system to do that. I don't think Jay is a bad guy or the Antichrist I think he's way over his head, and too prone to try to do things the Old Auburn Way which would include covering things up hoping they go away

He had a good week of practice. Lot of energy.

The fact that JJ is still employed proves how strong the good ole boy network is in Auburn.

Firing JJ now creates more of a media story

We drag our feet until next story comes out then let him retire. Allow Louisville firing beloved HC/AD be the media cannon fodder

Firing Jacobs makes us look guilty. We'd have to fire Pearl too

With all the extra SEC money, TUF money, etc. we would expect more than we are getting. We get the money in, we need to see how we spend he money. He is not a good steward of the money.
