Sorry but I just don't agree. As you said last week - there are many things I think he should be fired for from the last ten years. This isn't one of them. There just isn't enough there with this case as far as jay goes and malice. I don't see it. Corey and Clint, sure. Not Jay.
Didn't say I agreed. Just provided it for discussion.
I know Jay to be pompous glad-handing ass. He considers himself to be the consummate Auburn Man. I consider him the anthesis. He's all about self promotion. He's smarmy as hell. He sucks up to people he thinks can benefit him and looks down on anyone he considers lesser. I also find him sanctimonious. His decisions to hire both Chizik and Malzahn were suspect and based on his faith more than performance. We overpaid both.
I don't much care for his vision for Auburn. That stupid giant TV. Corporatizing gameday.
I don't like the waves of cheese that emanate from every statement he makes or releases. I didn't like the way he treated Tuberville. Or Muschamp (the first time). Or Rocker.
I think he is massively unqualified for the position he holds.
All that in the books? I just don't see the hanging offense here.
You've got one disgruntled girl crying because she wasn't good enough to make the team. You've got super dad rushing in to defend his baby girl.
I've been there. When I started coaching high school softball I had 25 girls try out. I was only keeping 15. One of the ten I cut had her dad her dad go to the principal and the board. His baby girl was an all star in Dixie League! Demanded I do tryouts over and be "more fair" Board backed me up. She sucked. Was an all star because daddy dearest was her coach. That guy hated me.
This dad has already declared her high school coach incompetent. Demanded she be allowed to play baseball. Moved to Auburn. Had her turn down smaller offers to walk on at AU -- and then get his ass chapped when she wasn't good enough.
They are cancers.
I don't like Jay. But his future shouldn't hinge on some unverified "feels" from a spurned brat and her butthurt daddy.
