Even if that is so, he should be out there getting money from outside to help. Not just saving. Raising funds is a huge part of his job and like it or not, that was something JJ was great at. I think he being part of the "good ole boy system" , as so many of you like to say, helped in that part.

There are so many parts to his job. He must be good at all of them unfortunately. I would not want that job.



The fact that whoever is part of the PTB(Board, boosters, President of AU), they have hired for the 2 most important jobs in Auburn athletics, the AD and the football coach, both outsiders.

So someone wants Auburn to take a new direction otherwise why bring in these 2 outsiders?

That is why it is baffling that the President basically has put someone else in charge of the AD operations in Lt. Gen Burgess, and is making Greene report to him for now.

I wonder if Greene agreed to this setup in order to mediate the internal issues coaches are having.

I remember when Greene was hired, one of his strengths was fund raising. I just wonder if he has been successful in the 3+ years he has been on the job?

I mean, we did get the funds for the football facility. I don’t think he has done a poor job of it, but as Lanier alluded to, I think him being an outsider definitely hurt him early on.

The whole riding bus to away games and stuff, I really have no idea what that was truly about. That was definitely odd.
