Believe me when I say WINNING cures everything. Does anyone bitch and complain about boosters, control issues, money problems when the team is winning?

It is in EVERY major CFB program.

As 1941 stated, when you are winning it's not an issue.

I mean the last 5 Auburn coaches before this current disaster won a natty, played for a natty, or went undefeated. I'd say that's pretty consistent relevancy over the course of four decades.

That's wrong. It's an issue because it's an issue.


But carry on.

OK, I believe you. You are spot on about everything else you post too.

In today's world the fix and turnaround can happen overnight. NIL and the transfer portal will make A&Ms turnaround happen next year if they get someone other than Jimbo in control. Same with Auburn. Money will dive CF as much as coaching in the future and some schools have a big advantage with their alumni.

But at least they have players on-campus. We don't have that luxury right now. Their turnaround will likely be much quicker if they hire the right guy.

I'm still not convinced they will fire him.

The thought of 12 teams in a playoff is driving college football. A quick look at the newly unemployed head coach list in college football is only getting started. These guys didn't even make September.

I don't think the fire him either. I do think his future is dependent of him keeping his current players away from the transfer portal come December.

Bjork didn't give any cooperation until after the Tunsil draft night. The NCAA actually cited us as non-cooperative when they handed down the punishments.

The Nutt stuff was handed over but that wasn't Bjork.

Ross Bjork isn't a good AD so I am not defending him, just laying it out. Hugh Freeze on the other hand...

We can't afford to fire Jimbo. He's our coach for the next 2-3 years at a minimum. He does need to shake up his coaching staff this off-season. Something he has never done in his career.

This feels like we are heading towards Fran 2.0. A coach who is too stubborn to change and makes himself obsolete, leaving behind a pile of ashes.

I'll be really interested to see what Jimbo does in the off-season. If he doesn't fire most of his offensive coaches including himself as OC, we are in for a long drought.

So what you are saying is the Boosters were cut out of the hiring and now they are seeking his removal and did so from the start.

Do you understand that is the exact same thing? Boosters controlling the program.


Yeah, not sure what Leto is arguing...

I'm arguing that our program has been shite since Harsin without support from the boosters. Do you disagree?

Do you think our NIL has been up to snuff?
