I’m just wondering where this comes from?

He kept Leath from firing Pearl.
He extended Pearl
Made a seemingly bad hire with Harsin
Got the Football only facility going (which I don’t know if he did a good or bad job with that because I have nothing to judge it on)
Has a basketball only facility going (again I have nothing to judge on)

The other sports hires I don’t really know much about. Did he hire Thompson?


Leath/Pearl ok but other than that:

Bruce extension was just a formality, FOF facility was already in the planning stages, BOF is basically just an Arena expansion (nothing else) and he was the reason why it took so long, other sports: he keeps hiring and firing swim coaches… should have scheduled an Auburn/Notre Dame series

Look if you guys haven’t figured it out yet. We have a bunch of people on here carrying the water for our Wizards of Oz. You see Greene doesn’t need to be the AD. He needs to bow and kiss the ring. Since he likely isn’t a paper putz to do that, then we shall call him worthless. Our boosters will run Bruce off at some point mark it down. And we they do, same people on this board will find reason to trash Bruce or just make some shite up about him. In fact, they have created such a toxic environment the Bruce is probably like - F these clowns. TBh, if AG does get railroaded like Harsin, then how about we hire Bruce as AD and let him coach basketball. Now that would be good. Again. They would run him off as their money is power and control nothing else.

It seems ya'll think you know something, when in fact you dont know a damn thing. But you walk around blowing a horn making sure everyone hears your worthless opinions.

None of you know if any of that is true. If AG put himself between Leath and Pearl, what he has or hasn't done, if he's been frozen out of decision making. Ya'll dont know a damn thing about any of that, or if any of it is even true. Yet you make these statements like you do. You likely heard it somewhere else and you're just parroting it because it fits the narrative that you like.

What is true is the following happened under Greenes time:

Pearl survives Person scandal
Gus Beats #1 Georgia and #1 Alabama in a row
Extend Gus
Fired Gus
Hired Harsin
BOF Approved
FOF Approved
Pearl Extension

If ya'll didnt speculate on all this other bullshite, and you saw this list of things that happened during an AD's time, you would have said they are wildly successful.

HAHA-
We dont want to give AG any credit for Bruce, but you can bet your arse when we get weary of a couple .500 seasons, we'll blame him for extending him.

I don’t understand why you’re still melting over a 6-7 coach that is an a-hole to
everyone until they flee for pay cuts.


But I’m loving it.

Y'all are just difficult to watch. No wonder marriages don't last as much as they used to anymore. I think y'all need to step away from the keyboard and just let what happens happen. That's all that's going to happen anyway. You're feeding directly into what the BoT wants

Your list of supposed accomplishments makes Greene out to be one of the best AD's in the country.

Why is it then that he's interviewed for like ~5 other AD jobs now and hasn't landed a single one of them? Better yet, why is he interviewing for jobs in the first place (let me guess, to get away from the Auburn BOT ).

I was on your same side, dummies. You can check my posts; I was on here celebrating Greene "winning" over the evil PTB and hiring Harsin. I was wrong. Greene has been non-existent and Harsin was a very bad hire. Alan clearly did very little work vetting him and just saw his record, because the stuff at Auburn is a continuation of everything Boise people were saying about him. I can't believe I'm saying this, but Steele would have probably had us in a better position right now (he would have hired a better staff which with his continuation would have won more than 6 games, and he would have recruiting doing way better).

Auburn is essentially weary of the blowback of firing a young, seemingly competent black AD. They're waiting for him to either land a job elsewhere, or for his contract to expire. The fact that some of you are seriously sitting in front of a keyboard and claiming that a lame-duck AD who's been out of the loop for like 6+ months now was allowed to negotiate the Pearl extension (one of the most important contract negotiations at Auburn in a long time) is comical.

HAHA Greene wasn't even hired yet when the Person thing happened and Pearl almost got fired. Look at the timeline

There is no justifiable reason to actually want AG gone.


We are a football school with a great basketball team, but our #1 athletic priority is and probably will always be FOOTBALL. Most people, Auburn people and non Auburn people, think our football program is a dumpster fire. But no justifiable reason?

You'll probably get your wish. If the boosters behind this get their way, theres no bigger Yes Man than Kevin Steele.

This is correct. I had thought I remembered Greene being hired shortly before the Gus Extension, but he was hired SHortly after. Like 2 months after.

Regardless. Everything after Gus happening is what is actually known to have happened.

Nothing else speculated on this board can even be proven true by any of us here.

*Auburn University’s chief operating officer, Lt. General Ronald Burgess, has temporarily moved into the football complex building while doing an assessment of the athletic department operations for President Jay Gogue. Burgess was the point man in pushing forward the new football complex project from the planning stage to the construction stage where it is a year away from its scheduled completion date. He has a reputation as a no-nonsense administrator who gets things done.


General Burgess smoothed things over when coaches were pissed at Greene.

He is helping with the investigation.

He is Gogue’s fix it man. ADAG might work from home still I don’t know. I doubt he will be missed.

more bullshite spewed......

AG hired.....check the date


Person indicted.....check the date



ETA It's really difficult spotting the fans who really don't pay attention to what is going on at Auburn........yet want to chime in like they know what's what. Everybody and their Grandmother heard that Leath wanted to fire Pearl and AG jumped into Pearl's corner with both feet.
