I'll make this quick and simple... Jon Inherited a 11-1 team and didn't screw the momentum of the program. Well Done. The Russian inherited a 1-11 shite SHOW and made them 9-3. I'll take the dude who built it from nothing.

You’re Auburn - you’ll take what you can get.

The way it was told to me over a refreshing beverage is that Auburn was dictating terms and Florida was taking requests. Auburn has cancer.

This is an old narrative. Why would Golesh take the job when he has Kodi Burns, someone who played and coached at Auburn, who could tell him exactly what it’s like to be the HC there? And KB is rising in the coaching ranks. If that trajectory holds, he’ll be a head coach soon. Why throw that away by going to a place you already know is toxic?

If Auburn simply said they preferred to retain one of the top DCs and Sumrall saw that as meddling, that’s on him. That plus the whole “I’m a winner” statement would signal ego problems.

Kodi was a grunt. Events happen way above his pay grade. He never got to smell Tim Cook's fingers.

You were a fool when you said that Auburn forced Kody Burns on him and you're a fool now.

Well good luck with your beta boy commie. He can throw an insult but walks away like a girl when called out. Have fun worshiping your troon national championships. Feel good about yourself while your school is funded by satan who uses slaves to make his products. Believe in Auburn and love it bro.

Isn’t that his job? Would you be fired for not doing your job?

I’m fine with it. At face value Sumrall seems like a country bumpkin try hard. Maybe he’ll have success but I have my doubts he will.
