In football at least, we're still on the SEC schedule rotation that was set in 2014 and was intended to go through 2025 (but probably won't because of Texas and Oklahoma).

I just think his goal is to move to Alabama and run for Senate as a Progressive to counter Tubberville. 😂😂😂😂😂

He got mad that the Drag Show was cancelled for his ?Daughterson?

Ole miss next year is at Ga, at Bama at MSU, has LSU, Arkansas and tamu at home. They have 4-5 losses there. If they were on the road UK and LSU instead of drawing Vanderbilt, they have our schedule this year.

They gave us a nice soft slate next year though.

That may totally be what’s happening, but I just don’t understand that.

We are talking about Auburn. There hires rarely make sense.

To idiots claiming it?s expected to beat Alabama and LSU on the road. We aren?t a blue blood , we are the exact opposite of a blue blood.

It was an awful hire for the EXACT reason you said. We aren?t a blue blood. We aren?t sexy. We CANNOT hire a reitrement aged coach. It?s not about beating Bama and those guys. It?s about staying in the fight. And Leach isn?t that.

Number one how is a 59 year old coach retirement age ?

Number two if it was viewed as an awful hire within the upper echelons of the sec, why was Cohen able to upgrade jobs based on that signature hire ?

The only thing you typed that has any truth in it is we are not a blue blood, far from it.

I won?t delegate good decisions to auburns athletic department- they?ve handled that perception themselves lately.

As far as Leach- have you seen one single interview, conversation, pitch, ANYTHING, that screams ?this is going to appeal to 17 year olds from Alabama Mississippi and Louisiana?? I haven?t. That?s what matters now.

Hot take

His interviews don’t appeal to 17 year olds

I'd say most 17-year-olds like candy, so that viral one probably did.

Lol

And again athletic directors don’t get promotions to bigger programs based on “disastrous terrible hires” for football in the sec. The Leach hire is Cohens signature hire and led to a better job. Football people think Leach was a good hire,

Morons on the internet don’t factor into reality.

Guess the candy corn is why we are so successful recruiting under leach.

My man- we are winning less, and as you say, recruiting the same. With a 60 year old who DOES NOT RELATE to kids. You just wanna keep rolling along? I think we can improve on the recruiting front, and I?d like to have an AD and coach with some energy and growth potential, but maybe my glasses are too maroon.

No, I think it completely changes your point. We are matching our peak and rising anyway.
