I'm more giddy about not having Gus than I am of having BGB. Fingers crossed gang.
OT: Gang, we have entered everyone's favorite part of being a boog - coaching fire/hire rumor mill
- Thread starter WDE_Tarp
- Start date
Tommy T is so butthurt after not even getting a whiff at either the governor’s job or the Boog AD gig. Being bitter is no way to go through life
Oh now this would be quite a smokescreen by Tubs. Maybe he’s the mystery man. Bring him back along with fellow Boogtonian Gene Chizik as DC. See if we can’t rekindle that 2004 magic.
Devastating news - it appears Gus is going to allow his contract to be amended to a reduced buyout to stay another year at AU. Basically means we get to fire him cheaper next year, but I'm stuck another year of hating boog football. Oh well.

Yeah this is weird AF TBH. Says he’s not allowed to get rid of Chip unless he voluntarily leaves (he probably will). Just don’t understand this at all but then again this is AU so who fuggin knows what’s going through their pea brains
Just laughable. I hope we go 0-12 next year and they sell about 30,000 season tickets in 2020.
Gang this may be for the best in establishing ourselves as the premiere basketball school in the SE. Another fall to enjoy on the links or some other lesser outdoor activity isn’t a bad thing either.
It’s as if the man knows everyone hates him and he just keeps trying to find new ways for us to hate him more
I really try not to care anymore but **** everyone with any kind of leadership at that school. gat damnit it pisses me off
Just picture the man on the sideline this year. Now imagine that same person with thicker glasses, bigger tits an even more fugged up hat and worse W/L record.
OMG apologies gang but it ain’t pretty.
I just want to get an alert that says Leath has been fired
It’s just a fuggin miracle that we have Bruce.
Thank you Allen Greene for prevailing over Leath's stupidity
The most read story put out by PAM this year and it goes out from "UBURN, Alabama". Lulz.
You are quite the low IQ individual.Yeah I knew that guy was trash when I saw this
I mean - so many emotions I don’t know where to start
it’s equally as impressive as it is infuriating that Leath, Harbert, and Gus were able to take a worst case scenario and somehow make it even less tenable for all involved
the schadenfreude part of me is giddy at the possibility of this continuing to get worse and ultimately ending with the entire program - on field and off - burning to the ground and leaving no survivors
add in the potential reallocation of resources to BRUCE and this could be a win-win-win
but my god is it infuriating to watch justice for incompetence continually delayed with little hope that the ultimate payoff will be commensurate with the crimes committed

I was enjoying it all until I had visions of Leath firing Bruce on his way out just to piss everyone off.
This type of snowflake behavior will not be tolerated here
Gus isn’t going to agree to a lower buyout and those conditions unless he is a worse negotiator than he is a coach. In fact if he tried, I bet Sexton would drop his ass as a client. This story was leaked with a purpose. Trying to figure out what but all it does is make Gus look weak as shit. A loser cuck that went begging on his knees to keep his job. What stud would sign for that weak ass shit?
pleats and braided belt. Good lord how did someone not see this coming?Yeah I knew that guy was trash when I saw this
There’s moments where I sorta feel sorry for Gus, but then I remember the 2014-2016 recruiting classes, and I’m reminded he’s actually getting off easy.
How in fvck’s name is your QB/OL haul this over a 3 cycle period:
*Sean White
*Tyler Queen
*John Franklin III
*Braden Smith
This isn’t simply “not doing your job”. This is “sue your ass for backpay due to breach of contract” tier bullshit.
He should’ve been fired at the end of the 2016 season. How he wasn’t, I’ll never know.

I'm so heart broken I can't even begin to respond to this. I love my school so much but hate these fvcking imbeciles to the point that it's unhealthy.
This mother fugger is just a cockroach survivor. He’s gonna get Kelly Bryant, go back to the 2013 offense we all craved, go 10-2, then go back to this bullshit with Bo Nix and repeat the whole thing all over again.
Indeed. Silver lining of all of this is definitely the realignment of our fan base towards basketball.
My source with connections who was feeling confident we had a shot at Stoops this AM now says we effed it up with all of these shenanigans. Holy shit if we blew a realistic shot at Stoops over idiotic maneuvering with Gus over his contract. We should have shit canned his ass Sunday and gone full bore at Stoops.

I really think some bozo blew the whole thing up by leaking that shit to the media. Stoops wanted him fired before he was publicly interested. Now it just blew up. I think the dingus who leaked it wanted to show the bot/and everyone else how much public disdain there was for Gus and how much people supported Stoops. Instead, it just led to Stoops getting all upset that it looked like he was backstabbing another coach before he was fired.
That very well may be the case. From what I heard, 10 years/$80 million was discusssd and Stoops was legitimately interested. Getting him for $8 mil/year would have been the deal of the century after paying Gus $7/year.
You're quite the stinky queef juice at the bottom of a whorehouse dumpster in Calcutta- the really poor part.
Gang, Bob Stoops was never coming to AU. Josh Moon got trolled by some boosters, who were trying to make Gus mad. Stoops likely has never been contacted, or if he was, he quickly shut it down. Gus was always staying, and TPTB get to keep their precious access to the program so they can eff it up.
i don't think it was all bullshit. if it was, then Gus wouldn't have renegotiated. I also don't think dude's are just in the business of trolling reporters. If they get caught lying too much, then they lose influence in the media. Something was definitely up
The whole Stoops story originated with two boosters, who, without any authority from AU or any trustees, tried to contact Stoops on on their own. He said no. The boosters, not happy, decided to leak the story to try and force Gus' hand. That's basically where we are now. As far as I know, there has been no renegotiation.
ADAG has vetoed Freeze for 2 reasons:
1. Gus lobbied HARD for Chip, and his contract. He has an over $1 million buyout, and AU isn't going to throw good money after bad
2. The SEC will veto Freeze even if AU doesn't. Saban tried to get Freeze as ANALYST last season, and was told no. Do you really think they're gonna let us have him as an ON THE FIELD COARCH next season? No way Jose.
Edit to add: this info came from a board member
Pretty sure Freeze was under a show cause last year and from everything I’ve heard, the SEC’s reasoning for not allowing him at bama was because they didn’t want him coaching anywhere while Ole Miss was still serving a bowl ban...
Bob Stoops wasn’t coming to Auburn. Lulz
There was no show cause. He's just a pariah for what he did at ole miss.
"Hugh Freeze, the coach who resigned abruptly this summer after revelations he’d called escort services from his university-issued phone, received a two-game suspension he’ll have to serve only if he’s hired as a head coach for next season."
https://www-washingtonpost-com.cdn....ne-year-bowl-ban-hugh-freeze-with-suspension/
The show cause was only as a HC, but he most definitely had one. Regardless, many feel that the reason he wasn’t allowed at bama was because of the OM bowl ban which seems entirely plausible.
Doesn’t matter anyway as it’s obviously a moot point now.
He was given a 2 game suspension, if he was a Head Coach in 2018. There was NO show cause. I linked an article with all of the NCAA penalties listed.
