Let me say this:

It’s not your damn money that is being tossed around.

Your pennies that/if you’ve donated has already fell through cushions of the GOBN’s couch, that’s located down at the duck club just East of Stuttgart.

Your fake outrage over what it’s going to cost for us to get back to winning is too funny. You have all become business/financial advisor experts all of a sudden.

Jeff Long was paying a coach over $4 million dollars a year to average 1 SEC win a year.

Hatfield and Bob were winning for less than 6 mil/ yr.

To even think about paying St. Gus that is idiotic at best.

Oh, ok. We should go back to the 80’s pay scale to entice a coach to Arkansas.

Expert, you are not.

We can get Norvell for 2.5

I'm not really a fan of raising ticket prices and donations to pay for Gus.

I know you DGAF because you rake leaves.

I actually go to games.

Expert you are not Piofeet.

Jeff Long raised ticket prices so you could support by buying said tickets and to watch a 4 million dollar coach average 1 SEC a year.

Sounds about right, Pard

PIgfeet I like ya bro, but wtf has Gus done as a Head Coach and to be able to demand such a big salary as a consistent underachiever? We could similar results from him or better at half the price with Mike Norvell.

I guess you could tie Gus into my OP or any other coach for that matter. The point being made is about the fake outrage over $$$ that will be used to

Make
Arkansas
Great
Again

regardless of coach/ad.

Jeff Long got us into this mess and the GOBN is going to pony up ‘their’ money to get us out of it.

Well, most of the "outrage" is because it is directed at Gus

as long as the costs don't affect me I really don't care. paying that much for gus is dumb and adds a lot of expectations to the job.

just as Bielema had expectations with his. at 6mill I expect to win and win big games often.

I think this is the sentiment of most fans with the exception of the small portion of the fan base that absolutely hate Gus.

I say do whatever it takes short of pulling an Ole Miss to get those W's.

If Petrino was still here he would be making well over 5.


We'll get Gus for something like 5.1, 5.2 without paying Auburn much at all. That's incredibly a bargain for what he's accomplished in the SEC.

And what basis do you have to back this up?

But they would. Tickets prices would rise dramatically to pay for that salary.

Pure speculation

Coaches salaries and ticket prices aren’t tied together
