Is this a joke? Bama supports it's athletics more than AU across the board.
AND gets better results from their athletics across the board. Auburn has had one the worst downward spirals in athletics in the last few years than they've ever had in school history. Baseball, basketball, all women's sports, inconsistant football program. The damn athletic department is operating in the red for two straight years.

Since Saban has come on the scene tell me how your bball program faired.. I know this pisses you off as it should... The fact is your fanbase as a majority doesn't care about the bball program.. You can deflect and deny all you want but it's the truth...

It's like he doesn't know there's more to Coleman than what the average fan sees.

Bammers keep talking about Auburn's financial troubles, yet Auburn will have spent around 300 million on athletics facilities just since 2010 if the rumored renovation of Jordan Hare is announced later this spring of summer as expected.

That doesn't even count paying Muschamp 2 million dollars to be the defensive coordinator or a recent story I read about Auburn getting a commitment from a 14 year old phenom softball player partly because they planned to do a huge renovation of the softball stadium in the near future

Some financial problems

You proved to me I know exactly what I'm talking about... There were even rumors that CG was gonna stay another year up until two weeks ago.. AU winning those games in the SEC tournament sealed his fate... Keep throwing millions at these big name coaches and keep pay CG through 2019 and don't worry about your facilities... Bama bball will never be a close second in yalls athletics program... Too many sidewalk fans that their lives depend on football.


Are you an auburnphan alter? Holy Shite!...the Never To Yield crew are out today.

The agent is not going to negotiate right now. He may answer questions and give some information.

The issue is he doesn't want to breach a contract. Wichita is not going to allow it to happen either.

As I said earlier Marshall isn't going to Bama it's not money it's the tier of job he will hold for.

Every time I mention your facilities say I don't know what I'm talking about... Explain it to me then... Your 50 year coliseum will hold a ton of people but its a pile of crap, even with the renovations, if that's what you call them..

I guess I would be pissed off if you were making any sense.

A lot of people do, a lot of people don't. Like any football school. We have better support than some other SEC schools. I don't really know what to make of this statement. No one's claiming we're Kentucky. But if the team is good and exciting, we can pack arenas and have good support even when the football team is good. I've seen it.

Congrats, you just listed all of the reasons Auburn's AD stays in the red. Desperately trying to keep up with the big boys.

What the frick do you consider "negotiations"? If Marshall's agent is in contact (and he positively is) with Alabama, then what do you think they're talking about?...the fricking weather??

First off Coleman isn't the only basketball facility.

We built a new practice facility just 4 years ago.

As part of the push to get Marshall is the promise to renovate any facilities he thinks need to be upgraded (I posted this like 10 days ago)

Im not saying that bama can't pack stadiums.. My main point is that since Saban has arrived the bball team has taken a huge hit... Saban has built a powerhouse all the while your athletics program has been apathetic with a less than mediocre bball team... These guys talk about Coleman as though there are some gold mines hidden in that scrap metal, but honestly they know it's well past it's time...

Just like Ronald Reagan and the USSR. Bankrupting the barn.
