re: there is a problem in the Atheletic department

I personally don’t believe that PTB are the root of this but I think anyone can be convinced they’re not happy that their effort to take control of the football search was stemmed by Gogue and handed over to Greene. But I’m not sure that’s entering the current field of play right now.

This is where I fall on the 'truth' meter.

There have been posts outside of here, where there is info coming from friends of Pearl who support the budget constraints issue.

I agree I don't think it's the PTBs meddling w Greene, unless some of the coaches used them to also talk to Gogue on the internal concerns.

I do believe it will be resolved but 2 things will be so glaring from this:

1. If Pearl who has been the best PR guy for the AD and Auburn overall as well as the best coach and recruiter we have had in basketball in decades, has to scream and push to get what he needs, then thats a poor reflection on Greene.
2. When a President has to bring in a 'mediator' to fix problems within Greene's dept, that is not a good look moving forward. Greene had the power to make it right, and didn't in this case.
