Auburn better start making some NIL connections though and fast.


Get ready! Word has it your boosters and $$ people are pissed because your NIL collective is an unorganized mess. So a new NIL collective is about to be launched with new branding and a restructured fundraising campaign under new management.

“The complaints against Harsin did not go up the chain, they were made through the formal channels.…Auburn handled it correctly…”

Lol - everyone else saw this as a shite show.

Not a shite show with how it was handled internally. Became a shite show when certain people leaked it to certain people in order for it to be made public. AU did exactly what any organization does today. People who call it a shite show by Auburn have no clue about how EEO and Sexual Harassments complaints are handled by Government and public institutions. The "everyone else" you reference in your post are clueless or just plain dumbasses.

AU has a restructured NIL organization that the AD is very pleased with. Getting everything under one umbrella.

I suspect it is because your team sucks more than NIL. Be honest



Honestly, no, it is more about so many changes occurring very quickly. AU has always been a rollercoaster and we had much worse seasons near the end of Tubbs and Chiz.

But the recent changes all seem to just reinforce that college football is now a game of mercenaries. Traditional rivalries, geographical consistency and being an actual amateur athlete all appear to be going away at a rapid pace. The "Adults" are running this sport into the ground for short term profit.

Even teams who might benefit from these changes will probably come to regret them.

Chette doesn't have the same clout he used to have. Too many of the faces have changed over the last 10 years.

Are you referring to the one that's about to launch under a new name, new branding and new head of management?

That is part of it, but it is also a consolidation of existing programs.

In Dec '21, NIL Auburn LLC the original was created and run by Rick Davidson. Then in April '22 Friends of Auburn NIL launched and was run by B'ham businessman Benny LaRussa. Then in June '22 Plains NIL Club was set to launch in July run by a group of your football players.

Now a consolidated version will house all 3 under under a new name with new management person.

There’s just something about people making high 6 and 7 figures blaming people making 5 figures that feels patriotic to me.

I sure hope so. We go another cycle or two recruiting at the bottom of the SEC, it would be hard to recover even with Andy Reid coaching.

Things snowballed quickly but we all know winning is the miracle cure.

It is all about marketing to your alumni base. Smart to consolidate and placing a trusted name in charge. AU has a lot of untapped dollars that they will target under one name. Many feel that AU is a sleeping giant over the years from a money standpoint, and the Athletic Dept didn't want too many chefs in the kitchen. Greene feels differently and the President understands the use of athletics. We will see.
