Nice letter too bad his resignation wasn't stapled to it.

Sullivan and Bo = FAP

Ever since Tubs walked into Bryant Denny holding up seven fingers, I've been totally unable to feel any sympathy for AU. I didn't like him, but it made no sense to fire a a coach who had beaten your cross-state rival six years in a row and hire a coach with a losing record. As long as Pat Dye has any influence on the Plains they're going to have problems.

You know, I know eventually AU will take objections from Bama fans about Petrino as being "afraid" of him. He'd coach some good ball down there, and if we had our druthers we'd like you to keep Chizik from a football standpoint.

Yes, he'd win some ballgames. And he would be a big upgrade.

We aren't "afraid". He didn't beat Saban at all, and that was when he didn't even have to recruit against him. That's not the point.

The point is it will look pathetic and--as hard as it is to say--we will be embarrassed for you.

Surely there's a winner out there without so much baggage. Make a run at the Vandy coach. Or Patterson. Or the Boise guy.

Jesus H Christ have some dignity.

I am pleased to announce that we have put together an outstanding search committee to find our next head coach. The committee consists of several great Auburn leaders who share our commitment to competing at the highest level and who understand what it takes to succeed at Auburn. I am honored that Mac Crawford, Bo Jackson and Pat Sullivan have agreed to join our efforts to find the best coach possible for our student-athletes, the students of Auburn University and the Auburn Family. I'm proud to be part of this distinguished group.


This is a joke, right?

Hiring a coach by committee has never worked. If they already don't know who they are going after then AU is really in bad shape. That is what you have an AD for.

I love how gumps are still upset by Patrick Fain Dye. Still all up in their head 20 years later!

I'm sure they do. They're just going through the motions now. Someone will be announced soon.

At least we got some wins off of him, unlike that bastard Tubby. 1 Crack at him and poof, he's gone.
