So throwing good money after bad?

You would think the billionaire/millionaires funding this shite would be smarter than that.

"Hey, we're gonna have to pay him all that money anyway, so let's let him damage the program for another year or two!" just doesn't seem like a sane management or budgetary technique IMO.

The buyout money would be better served being spent on the football facility and stadium upgrades. Gus isn't any worse than the rest of the gaggle of coaches...in the last few years people have believed we should hire Champ and get rid of Gus, hire Fedora, hire Leach, etc...they all have done less than the coach who drives all of us crazy. The University and its fans need to commit to long term success and forget about winning 2 or 3 more games next season.

Hopefully they think that way and not the way the board thinks.

This is a flawed argument.

You realize that if you fire him a lot of recruits will leave, right? This class has quite a few "studs" and losing them would be crushing to this program. Specifically speaking about Pappoe and Pickens. All reports have said they're stuck to this current regime.


I don't think Gus should be fired, personally. This team was overvalued from the beginning and the losses at OL, RB, LB, and S, proved to be too much to overcome with talented freshman and sophomores. That and the QB played really poorly at times. But I believe part of that was the play of the OL. The worst group of OL I've seen at Auburn in a while.
