I'll just go ahead and say Clemson, LSU, and Bama are losses, but everybody else you mentioned lost a shite ton while we should be improved by a lot. There's no logical reason anybody other than the big 3 on the schedule should be considered anyt


Why do you think is au gonna improve by a lot?

Eason and Chubb could turn out to be logical reasons as to why Uga improves.

If he loses, he is gone. A one year extension won't change that.

I can understand your confusion because I do know more about Bama football than most Bama fans. But that's really not hard to do considering 90% of Bama fans don't know a single coach besides Saban and can't name any players until the season starts, and even then most still can't.

But relatively, I don't follow Bama much. Might watch 1-2 Bama games all the way through a year not counting the Iron Bowl.

Funny how every fanbase on here thinks I'm obsessed with their team

-QB play can't be worse

-Bring in a ton a WR talent, and lose several pairs of butter fingers. Dropped passes are one of the biggest reasons we lost to UGA, MSU, Ole Miss, and Arkansas.

-Defense improved big time last year and by the end of the year made a 1st round QB look like a punk. Yes, Steele, but this is easily the most talent and most depth Auburn has had on defense since 2007.

-Nobody is expecting much from us. Last year we were ranked top 10 preseason and everybody was gunning for us and we got demoralized early on when JJ imploded. Could easily sneak up on people early and gain positive momentum. Typical type of preseason for Auburn to do well.



And yeah, UGA has the best chance of those teams to improve. My point of view however is: First year HC and True Freshmen QBs nearly always struggle. And to be honest Chubb has been hurt so much I forget about him sometimes.

Oh without question. But Duke was already off the team for 3/4 of the games I mentioned. He did have 4 catches against MSU tho, so you got me there.

You think Jay Jacobs is above signing an extension only to fire the coach the following year, hiring another coach, then winning the SEC the following year? He's the best worst thing to happen to Auburn. I'd compare him to a retarded wizard the views greenbacks as monopoly money.

It only added $2mil to the buyout but give stability to the program for recruiting

Does it really give stability? Everyone knows that he is getting fired if he has another .500 season, even recruits. If there's improvement this season, then you can give him the extension/raise. That actually gives the impression that things are stable and the problems are getting solved.

All Jacobs has done here is add $2m to the buyout.

Why the hell is there all this bullshite talk about Bama and their coaches in this thread? BAMA has nothing to do with the fact that Auburn is their own worst enemy.

Hell, how can an Administration justify an extension and a freaking raise for a coach that finished last in their division?

This is so Jay Jacobs, you guys. I honestly believes he lives in a bubble. Perhaps he is bubble boy from Seinfeld?

If this thing turns south, maybe this is enough to run Jacobs off as well.

Oh this one again?
You must be too young to remember that UGA was nothing more than another shitty state school before the HOPE.

Yeah, but Johnny Majors & General Neyland weren't still on the payroll in 2007.
