Every time I see this word, I hear it in Gus Malzahn’s voice.
I see a lot of Auburn fans say “without question” and that gets read in Gene Chizik’s voice.

And of course the first thing is to blame the REC and Alabama for all of their self inflicted wounds.
Where is this happening? Please cite one example.

If its been happening for decades why do auburn fans always deny it?
Again, who have you seen denying/defending it this time around?

Yep.
Tuberville’s kids finished at Lee Scott Academy. Gus’s sister in law is still in Auburn.
But that’s the point of the article. Auburn is a unique, special place with mostly good people. It’s the few big money men that frick things up.
You all might think this is some revelation coming to light, but we’ve been aware for decades.
I do find this uniquely Auburn. I know Jeff Lebos daughters went to Auburn a few years after he was fired as their coach.

The Bowden ordeal still has to be the most bizarre of all
Well if Bowden was banging Lowder’s daughter he only has himself to blame….Lowder is the one that set her up with Bowden at Samford, he even donated to Samford athletics in the equivalent of her salary…so he essentially PAID her.

And LSU
And A&M
And Georgia
And etc. as far as paying players. It’s nice Auburn had a ledger for him to keep it organized.
And most schools have meddling boosters as well. My understanding is when Sabin was hired he said stay out of my way or I’m not taking the job. Good for him to get out in front of it right away. And since he’s done great I assume they have stayed out of the way.
But Texas and Auburn are prime examples of their boosters killing their programs the past 10-15 years. They require too much attention and it has too drive the coaches crazy.

That Jimmyjjjjames alter who is always accusing UGA and Bama of cheating needs to get in here and explain this.

Can anyone actually name one of these people besides Jimmy Rane or Bobby Lowder, who has been out of the picture for a while? Not only is Auburn puppeteered by idiots, they don’t even know who those idiots are.

That phony creed BS isn't worth the toilet paper it's scribbled on.

Do you think TB will ever spill the beans? 24 years now, looks like he received a lot of $$ to take that secret to the grave.

State fired Rick Stansbury in 2012 and a year or two ago his son came to State to walk-on the basketball team. Still here.

Weve had the same coach for 14 years or so now. Youre on your 3rd (so far) since we hired Saban.
Which only proves that the University of Alabama is better at paying athletes.
No one doubts that the Capstone has led in this system back to the days of Bryant.

He already came out with an interview a few years after he left where he slung some mud.
I suspect he's moved-on at this point. It's been 20+ years.

I think Harbert has been the biggest problem the last 5 years. He's the one who pushed for Malzahn's extension.
