re: Jay Jacobs has never had a job outside the city of Auburn in his adult life

As long as people keep paying the prices, there won't be any changes. If we only sold 90% of our season tickets, he'd probably already be gone. But the market continues to grab them up. It's kinda like my dad bitching about the salaries of Drew Brees and Sean Payton while wearing a saints t-shirt....

This is what I've been pondering-

We should have elevated Lance Thompson and the staff we used for the bowl game. Good raise, DC title, no extension. I say this because there is at least a chance that we are coach shopping next year. Now we've brought in some really expensive guys with some new contracts and buyouts that we are going to be on the hook for.

HOWEVER, if Jacobs insists that this happens, he's meddling and not letting Gus have control of his hires.

Other than the big money, I don't envy Jay Jacobs.
