OT: AUBURN BASKETBALL

I'm such a loser! I'm taking 3 hours of leave to go watch Auburn play Indiana State basketball at 10:30 in the morning. FML

I’ve got extra vacation days I’m not using because I’m not traveling for the holidays this year, so I just took 2 full vacation days for today and tomorrow - partly to watch BRUCE and the boogs...

if that makes you feel any better

Nice!
 
You gonna spill what you may or may not know or just continue to your passive aggressive disparagement of our beloved Bruce??
I'm not going to say much because I hope Bruce stays. And because I don't really know much. I just think everyone is wrapped up in this story line of the admin is trying to fire Bruce no matter what, and I think that is completely wrong.

So what your saying. Pressure being applied does not necessary equal a witch hunt?

I keep looking at this and keep going back to why can't they gather around a table for an impromptu lunch and go, "Hey Bruce hypothetically what if so and so? and hypothetically can you see this and this?" With Bruce going, "I can see how hypothetically in your scenario this and this did that and that." With a AD officials going, Wow I hope in that scenario no AU coach would ever have done x,y,z or tried to hide e,f,g cause we might have to fire them if it could ever be proven by the NCAA. Glad we are on the up and up Bruce keep dog cussing them youngins and bring us home a ship.

Seems like some winks, some nods, and some plausible deniable language could put everyone at ease.

Auburn fvcked everything up (like always) when they got lawyers involved...
 
@AUNaughty7

Hearing anything on Wiley/Purifoy and Pearl?

Im just ready for something to be said publically and we can move on with the season. This stuff just hanging out there has to be such a struggle for this team
I'm ready for BRUCE to be full endorsed publicly by AU admins and for Austin and Danjel to get on the hardwood ASAP. Anything short of that is a failure and disgrace to boog U.

Unfortunately the rumblings aren't stopping. Would be real smooth to can the best coach AU has ever had in any meaningful sport the week of a huge IB and honoring Sir Charles.

This x a zillion. It’s way past time for this to have been handled and addressed. Never ceases to amaze me!

Not really, I'm disgusted at the whole thing. At this point I feel like no news is good news in that Bruce is still our coach. Some people that may or may not know anything but are close to the program think Bruce could be gone any day now. Danjel is in New York right now. I don't know what that means or what for. So I have no clue when we get our guys back. At this point I'm just tired of the circus we have created ourselves.
 
Anybody know what the post says that Tate put up about Frankie and Jordan? I can't read but would like to see what was said. Those two guys were the only two on staff to cooperate with Auburn so part of me thinks they are being protected. In my mind that's bad news for Bruce and the rest of the staff.

Pretty much that Frankie and his attorney are not happy right now because Auburn will not tell them why Frankie has been placed on leave.

And that Auburn confirmed this to JGT with their answer to his question about Frankie.

I don't understand how the Admin can take both of these positions

- You have to sit down with us and tell us 100% of everything and answer every question, on the record, even though on the record could be a terrible idea with an FBI investigation looming.

- We're suspending your staff but we can't tell them why or what for and we won't talk to them about it

That's....uhhhhh....not consistent. A bit authoritative and while probably not illegal it's an absolutely terrible look. If that was some company in my industry I'd mark them down as someone to never even interview with.

It's a free article:
https://auburn.rivals.com/news/sullivan-still-searching-for-answers-regarding-suspension

Basically Frankie has no idea why he was suspended and AU won't tell him.

yeah, this and that they deny all the insinuations made in the ESPN piece last week.

Auburn ****ed everything up when they hired Rich McGlynn and Dave Didion back and asked them to treat the office of compliance like an annex office of the NCAA and an extension of its enforcement arm instead of acting in the capacity of protectorate for Auburn University athletics.
 
Hopefully this is a good sign (from PM moments ago):

"All I can tell you is that I have talked to three people today very close to Bruce and the basketball program. They say he has not been fired and they don't expect him to be. Take it for what it's worth."
Let's go!!

Who are you disgusted at the most? I can’t believe this basically boils down to a Dick measuring contest but that seems to be the only reason Wiley isn’t playing. Who’s side do you think leath is on?

I wouldn't know enough to tell you about Leath but as far as I can tell everyone in the AD is trying to help Bruce. I'm disgusted at how the whole thing has been handled. Not one person associated has handled this the right way and we look like clueless idiots. If this happened at literally any other P5 school in the nation Austin and Danjel are playing right now, Bruce isn't getting abused, people aren't leaking pointless info and the two members on staff that are on leave are with the team where they should be. Auburn is truly one of a kind

If they are trying to all help Bruce where is the animosity coming from?
 
And he seems to have a big ego. That's what that airplane fiasco tells me about him. "I'm the president I own the school and everything in it".
Yeah I don’t like this dude. Of course I’d have no idea who he is if not for this Bruce fiasco. Guy goes around buying planes on the school dime so he can fly around and crash into shit. Not cool.
