I freaking hate that he completely ignored our Swimming program after Marsh left.

We actually had a very good coach after Marsh, but the guy died of a brain tumor.
I think the Hope scholarship in Georgia has hurt us in swimming as well. We can't compete with that.

Jay Jacobs has the AU AD making money, they aren't in the crosshairs of the NCAA, the athletes are graduating, he is a good fundraiser, he built the Arena, and is about to undertake +$150mm stadium renovation. WTF else do you Aubs want him to do? Coach the damn teams?

Richard Quick. I was a student at AU and worked in the Aquatics Center when he won the NC in 2009. Quick was the HC at The University of Texas and at Stanford University before accepting the job at Auburn.

His last meet on the Plains was the SEC Championship when we hosted. He already knew that he had inoperable brain cancer, and just sat at the bottom of the steps of the Aquatic Center the whole meet...just taking in the excitement.

Great Man!
