An idiot with an internet connection. ESPN actually quoted him back in 2010 about the Cam stuff. He didn't know anything back then, and he doesn't know anything now.

And for the record, I don't want Bob Stoops despite the fact that I know he's good. I would prefer a younger coach with more than 5 years left in the tank.

superbooster Jimmy Rane may tap former Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops as the new leader of the program, according to Brooks Melchior and Sports By Brooks.


so boosters run things at Auburn. Terry Bowden was certainly right.

"Three current Board of Trustees members gave cash to players – Rane, Spina and McWhorter.

Jimmy is a wannabe, a jock sniffer, a loose cannon. He wants to be involved in everything. After I fired Wayne , (athletic director David) Housel came on. I don’t dislike David, but David would get his feelings hurt if I called Lowder.

I told David what Wayne was doing. Lowder said (of Housel) “He’s not a good AD, but he’s my AD.” David Dideon compliance guy, Jay Jacobs parking passes, Tim Jackson tickets. All are GAF members. Gerald Leschuck was keeping Lowder informed.

By my last year I’m having my house checked for bugs. Danny Rane (son of Jimmy Rane and a walk-on Auburn player) was giving our practice tapes to Mississippi State , our opponent. Tommy Tuberville had been promised the job if we lost to Alabama in the game when we kicked the field goal here to win."

It’s not news. It’s a clickbait subscription hook. They literally said the exact rumor last year. They’re not even trying anymore.

Smokescreen.

He’s going after Saban with Urban Meyer as OC.

Didn't some fool ask Stoops publicly if he'd communicated with AU people?

Like I said, someone was going to post the fricking story so I figured to go ahead and get it out of the fricking way.

So AU has rogue boosters running around trying to hire someone with authority they do not have for a position that isn't even open? Sounds like business as usual on the plains.

Holy Crap...I must have been under a rock...but I didn't realize Stoops was going to be a HC in the XFL...and that he hired Hal Mumme as his OC.

We saw this rumor last year too, doubt anything comes from it but doesn't hurt to ask Stoops I guess.

More interestingly, perhaps, this rumor did prompt this juicy TAKE ...

And I'll repeat the analogy I used the last time Bob Stoops-to-Auburn came up: It would be the same as Nick Saban retiring from Alabama and then taking the Oklahoma State job in three years.

Great timing on this rumor


The current AP poll has Alabama #2, UGA #3 and LSU #4.
The 2019 recruiting rankings - Alabama #1, UGA #2, Texas A&M #4 and LSU #5.

He could have gone to Florida and owned the East 8 years ago. Big Game Bob wants no part of the SEC West.

Stoops wouldn't touch Auburn with a thousand-mile pole. He doesn't want to live in a trailer!

247 is not reporting. Brooks is. 247 did respond to Brooks.

Question: Is there any truth to the report by “SportsbyBrooks” that Auburn booster Jimmy Rane plans to go after Bob Stoops if Gus Malzahn doesn’t beat Alabama?

My answer: Anyone who followed the Cam Newton saga should know that SportsbyBrooks, whose name is actually Brooks Melchior, has no credibility. He doesn’t know anything about what’s going on at Auburn if he knows anything about what is going on anywhere. Here is what I know: Neither Rane nor anyone else has a plan to go after Bob Stoops. Malzahn’s future will not be based on whether he wins a single game against Alabama. If there were to be a change, none of the money to pay off departing coaches would come from Abbeville, Ala. The myth of Rane buying out coaches and paying coaches is just that. It’s a myth. Rane has not reached out to Stoops. He does not have a personal realtionship with Stoops. He has not discussed with Stoops the possibility of being Auburn's coach and he certainly is not the source of this latest ridculousness. If any national reporters or, for that matter, fans are gullible enough to let this become a real story when Auburn is 3-0 and headed for a huge game, that’s on them and they are playing right into Melchior’s hands.
