The Golden Era of the SECRant

A thread that went hundreds of pages, led by an LSU fan, centered around Auburn’s pay for play scheme - a notion that is hilarious when viewed through the lens of today’s NIL.

Given Auburn’s new Blue Blood status, I thought it would be a fun time to rehash.

Here’s the diagram, if you are confused and want to be more confused.



Here’s a 15 page PDF synopsis, if you need the full story.

The full thread used to be located in PDF format here, and was even referenced by Andy Staples, but appears to no longer exist.

You’re a Blue Blood now. Don’t be so sensitive. This was 15 years ago.

That’s some of the craziest shite I’ve ever seen.

Pre ATPB SECRant >>>>> Current SECRant.

Cam would have probably won the national championship at Mississippi State, too.

What a wild time that was.

The SECRant, pre ATPB, drew me in. It devolved during ATPB. Adding Team boards & SEC expansion with aTm, mizzou further eroded what was once a cool board into a total flame fest.

Everything up and through 2011 on the Rant were the halcyon days. Post 21-0 is when everything started to go to shite.
