I like what I'm seeing from President Leath

I think he is making some tough decisions and bringing Auburn into a new era of excellence. Breaking some of the cronyism that was holding us back. Bravo. War Damn.

He seems like he is doing what he feels is best and not caving to pressure from people around him. You have to respect that.

He did allow GusShortBus to con him into a new contract and raise, so strike one.

Based on the climate this fall it was
The only decision to be made.

Mixed bag so far
The email thing was bizarre

I don't think he handled the Bruce stuff before the season very well specifically the emails he sent out. I do like this AD hire & it seems clear right now that Leath is steering the ship. Still too early to know if that's going to be a good or bad thing but I am optimistic

So he did exactly what needed to be done. Good for him

Some people sent rude messages to Leath and were shocked and mortified when they got rude replies from him in return. I think they expected the typical platitudes and genuflecting.
But Leath was all like...

But Leath forgot he is the president talking to concerned members of the Auburn community
People who sent rude emails were in the wrong, but the president of Auburn is above playing in the shite w the pigs

Well that's going around... Still I'm very impressed with many of his decisions so far.

The emails were typically aggressive but not ridiculous. I didn't see any that were like "frick you a-hole."
It was the usual "we demand you act in the best interests of Auburn" stuff.
And Leath not only got really touchy about it, he started telling fans stuff about Bruce that wasn't public knowledge, like "he won't even talk to me"
On one hand not getting a "Thanks for loving Auburn, Sincerely, Jay" email back is probably good, but Leath did not handle being accountable to AU people particularly well in that first go around, IMO.

I hate to be one of those "I have inside information but am not telling" douchebags, but I have some inside info about what Leath is currently negotiating for Auburn academics, and it's huge. Should really boost Auburn's competitiveness in a few particular departments that are already competitive. Think $$$$$.
