This might have already been posted in one of the other new AD threads, but I believe it needs its own.

The video lasts 40 minutes, but it is well worth the entire watch. He is funny, modest, charming and intelligent. So refreshing from the typical "aww shucks" and "family this and that" of Jay Jacobs.

Yea. I was impressed. I also loved the question and laugh of PM from 247. It was classic. I am excited he seems to be from the outside, but big enough to implement his vision. I am excited he seems to be someone people will believe in once they work with him. All in all it looks to be a great hire.

Guy is actually impressive, he says the right thing and time will reveal if he does the right thing for Auburn.

He began with a War Eagle

A reporter’s phone rang on the podium (as you know reporters use them to record) during his remarks and he picked it up and joked saying is this even an iPhone (guessing it was an old model) and followed that by saying “I think we know who we can talk to about that (Tim Cook reference)

Another reporter asked him what lessons he learned from his time at Ole Miss. “You cannot wear reflective tennis shoes when you go turkey hunting at 4:30 in the morning.”

Joked with Brandon Marcelo about him trying to get footage at the airport yesterday.

And he made a lot of other quality statements.

Ditto!

But Leath doesn't sound anything like I imagined. Almost like the priest in Princess Bride. "Wove...twue wove..".

Auburn Basketball is good.

We have a thread where not one negative comment about our AD has been posted.

The end is near.

Yeah, after watching the press conference I see why they hired him. He gives me hope that Auburn is going to do great things.
