Cheap arse boosters have made this a black hole program. There is no chance of that changing.
Is the problem that they're cheap, or is the problem that they want to run the program?

A President and AD that gets their boosters in line. Basically say “follow us or get the frick out”.

That’s literally what happened at Ole Miss when it was time to hire Kiffin. Boosters said no, Keith “9 inch” Carter and our Chancellor told them they could get on board or hit the door. They fell in line

Cheap. They wouldn’t pay for Freeze’s 2026 recruiting class. I’m pretty sure we were dead last in the SEC in recruiting.

Our boosters will pay for 1-2 good classes and then throw in the towel because of how cheap they are.

Unless the boosters show a sustained year by year commitment our program will remain dead and football revenue and attendance will spiral.

LSU and Ole Miss have proven that you can get that commitment. Can Auburn? I doubt it.

What will it take for them to be good again



An offensive coordinator because what they got now with that high school offense they run is terrible

Didn't Auburn beat Georgia a week ago?


No. They lost to LSU by 21 at home a week ago.
