Paying a decent G-5 QB that kind of money to get him to follow his coach to an SEC program is pure Auburn.

They paid Jackson Arnold over $1 million last year.

That was bad but at least you could think like “former 5 star, maybe Oklahoma just sucked at offense, etc etc”

3.5 mil for Brown is hilarious

Everything that Auburn does is because they have Alabama on the brain 24/7/365. They hired Russki Harsin because he was the OC for Tennessee in 2022 when they beat us and then of course because he played us tough when we played them in 23 & 24. They really are a sick, obsessed cult. Paying Byrum Brown $3.5 million is certifiable.

Rumor that LSU offered Demond Williams $6MM

ETA Cincy QB Transfer to Texas Tech was just paid $5MM.

The AFC Number 1 seed pays their QB under $5M annual.

I remember when they could get a Cam Newton for 180k. This inflation is outta control.

Hes a perfect fit for their new system because he already played for that coach.

Im not sure hes a heisman guy, but I expect their offense to be top 20 next year if they can rebuild at WR and OL.

And I'm happy they paid what they did, it means they cant spend that money on other positions most likely.

Seems dumb to pay that just to follow the coach. He was shoe in to transfer anyway and could have gotten him for much cheaper. USF NIL fund is probably non-existent so why overpay?

Obviously Auburn paying that much is ridiculous, but you guys laughing at these schools paying big money for QBs when every team in the final 4 has a portal QB.

Maybe it's time Alabama starts getting all of their QBs from the portal too.
