Sorry, I guess I don't keep up with the team leanings of the resident shitposters like I used to. I get it though, if I were an Auburn fan I wouldn't want anyone to know about it either.

What got us on sanctions was bag men, which isn't what I'm talking about. Moron.

Auburn's athletic department is run by its boosters. Alabama's isn't and wasn't. Those are just facts, and most Auburn fans I know complain about it on a regular basis.

There isn't a damn thing they can do about it.

Jay Jacobs is not a "bad" AD, the program makes more money than it ever has with the SECNetwork and the various apparel and media deals. AU stays out of the NCAA crosshairs, their players are graduating, Jacobs headed up some major facility improvements and is about to break ground on the JHS renovation that will top out over $150mm.

But Alabama was last hit with probation in 2009.

Your Football program was penalized and put on probation for three years.

Your Basketball program was penalized and put on probation for three years.

It ended in 2012, but that really wasn't that long ago, was it.

Then, why do Alabama fans always seem to feel squeaky clean all of the time?

In 2002 you guys received FIVE YEARS of probation and a TWO YEAR ban from participating in any Bowl Game whatsoever.

You guys brush things under the rug better than any University in America.
