They've had the torches and pitch-forks out for Jacobs since his first day as Auburn AD and they finally got what they wanted.

Now they want to bitch about the fact that he's moved on with his life.

I guess maybe they wanted him to go to prison and never ever be seen or heard from again or something.

I've never loved Jacobs, but the hate is undeserved. For every shite decision he made, which there were plenty, some hire of his had a great season to offset

- Basketball: 1/3 SEC Champs from his hire

- Baseball: First Super in almost 2 decades, his hire

- Football: 1/2 Nattys + 2SEC Champs from his hires. 4 Major bowl appearances in past decade

- Softball: We are relevant for the first time i can remember

- Gymnastics: Made NCAA Championship + beat Bama first time ever

It was time to move on, but Auburn is one of the highest revenue departments and won big in multiple sports under his watch

Now you are getting it. Though i dont wish prison on him. I was hoping he would take his retirement and go be a fishing guide and maybe open up a spinny bait company on the side. Something easy like that.
