Finebaum Leaving JOX

I glossed over the part where Ryan Haney is joining 97.3 as the new program director there.

Sucks for everyone. I think we can pretty well kiss Eyes on Auburn goodbye. Scarbinsky doesn't have a chance to stay on air.

And what exactly is this acheiving? Who is Finebaum giving the "Fuck You" to if he's bringing Haney with him? I'm guessing the parent corporation that owns JOX is who he had the problem with? Cumulus?

Anyway, Haney starts today.

I thought Haney was an Auburn fan.

If true, he's got a funny way of showing it. Particularly by sending a crew of people to three out of the last four national championships, conspicuously leaving every one at home for the 2010 championship in Phoenix...

EYES ON AUBURN will begin a brief hiatus effective immediately. A message from myself, @JHokanson & @robpate: http://theplaymaker.tumblr.com/post/42950625586/a-message-about-eyes-on-auburn

A message about EYES ON AUBURN.

Beginning tonight, Eyes on Auburn will take a brief hiatus as Justin Hokanson, Rob Pate and I evaluate the show’s best possible future. Recent changes at the show’s home studio, 97.3 The Zone, have initiated conversation amongst ourselves, the station and other potential outlets as to what situation can provide the listener with the best possible product. We’re working through that now.

We will be back. For the three of us, this is a hobby that we all enjoy because of its ability to allow the Auburn family an outlet as the state’s only syndicated call-in show exclusively dedicated to Auburn athletics.

If you have further questions about this decision today, please direct them to John.olsen@coxinc.com. While we want to answer all of you, we currently can’t provide you with the certainty you want or deserve.

A solution is inevitable. We just don’t have it yet. The moment we do, we will let you know.

Thanks for the immeasurable support you’ve given our show over the last three years. War Damn Eagle.

These clowns on @WJOX945 are poo-pooing AU recruits because their highlight film doesn't blow them away. "No Jadeveon Clowney." Who is???

So 97.3 started out as a balanced approach to Alabama (the state) athletics but is now drifting towards being a typical bammer-lovefest?

Can't say I'm surprised.  And honestly, I don't blame Alabama fans solely for this.  Way too many Auburn fans tune in to the Finebaum shows.  Way too many listen to the OD and think Del Greco is a good representative of Auburn.  Way too few tuned in to Eyes on Auburn. 

I feel like there should be some kind of movement to convince Auburn fans to not listen and call in or support shows that are detrimental or at least attempt to be detrimental to the overall well-being of Auburn University.

I feel like Eyes on Auburn had to have pulled in numbers. Everyone I know listened to it, if not live then in podcast form.

Fucking 2 hours a week of no anti-Auburn bias is apparently asking too much.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Fuck those clowns.  I hope lawsuits and contract disputes keep Finebaum and his posse tied up in court for the next 15 years.
