AU has completely lost control of the coaching situation. From the firing, to the 56 question interview inquisition, to Pete Thamel’s “updates.” Modern SEC football is big business and needs to be run that way. What a complete and total shite show!

There’s wild arse speculation all over the internet and social media. The masses are driving the message, not Auburn University. It’s like Jay Jacobs is back with his head shoved 3 feet up his arse.

What a train wreck.

“We need a leader not a loser” running the entire search

If you just look at official AU communications, nothing has happened. If you look at the poor sport journalists who get paid off of shock type news headlines, then you are rustled.

Correct
Everyone is getting all worked up and we know nothing official yet.

I appreciate Auburn not leaking who they are interviewing, but that has led to media and message board speculation. We’re so desperate for news that we’re taking rumors from board to board, then melting when they aren’t true.

I’m not sure if Auburn’s lost control of the search, or if it’s 2022’s instant information hunger that’s got us losing it.

Yep. And I wouldn’t be so concerned if we didn’t blow it so badly last time

When you know change is inevitable, you normally want to get it over with and move forward. Making people wait is tantamount to dangling the proverbial carrot

Its fun to watch. But painful at the same time. One day after the season and its full melt. Again



1- its gonna be coach A
2- Coach B has been offered and accepted. You are a dumbass if you dont accept it
3 - Id be OK with coach C
4 - God damnit, Coach A turned us down
5- I hear good things about coach D
6 - Auburn cant make up their minds. They suck






Rotate, reverse and insert

the 56 question interview inquisition


Paralysis by analysis. This is a college football coaching search not some damn lean six sigma project.

If you’re an established coach with your resume basically being out there already for the world to see, would you sit and go through that bullshite? You either want me or you don’t. Nobody has time for this silliness. We got a stupid baseball coach that thinks he’s some kind of super genius.

While this is a certain possibility, I'm not going to judge him until we see how this works out.

We're basically in a frenzy base on pure social media crap. Just enjoy the frenzy and we'll burn it down on the backside.

There are a hefty portion of Auburn football fans who don’t feel good about themselves unless they regularly take a dump on the football program and how its run. They are NEVER happy and prefer being miserable.

Nebraska coaching search - completed with a good hire and zero drama
Wisconsin coaching search - completed with a good hire and zero drama
Auburn coaching search - has been a soap opera with significant disruptions to other programs, while remaining incomplete, with the internet and social media generating wild speculation. The proverbial tail wagging the dog. A bunch of coaches are going to get raises as Sexton plays Auburn like a fiddle… Devil Went Down to Georgia style.

It’s because we have the dumbest fan base in America that has access to social media and email.

To the Ops point- AU should make an occasional statement updating the search and denying anything that makes us look bad

The problem with Auburn, is not Auburn at all, the problem is news outlets spreading false leads/rumors as fact like the sokholov guy in Mississippi, and Hoke from this February. We can't control what those jHokes spread around.
