Gus gone

[War Eagle!!!]

We still don't know what kind of coach we have, so the narrative remains what it always has been, wait and see with him.

Well, we have 7 years to wait it out now and find out, so there is that.

We'll get nothing and like it.

Why do I feel like the football gods are just laughing at us.

I want to have a meange with Kaos and Snaggle in this thread.

I like Jarhead's idea I wish we would have said to him we will give you a bump to 5.5 million base salary and every win above 8 you get another 500k.

We just paid a guy top coaching figures!?!?!! The same guy who was close to being fired mid-October...dafucq? I'm not saying he didn't deserve some monies but it wasn't worth that.  We still don't know what kind of coach we have, so the narrative remains what it always has been, wait and see with him.

See, I agreed with Kaos and even Snaggle on this issue but you don't include me in your post.

Honestly, I don't give a shit. It does not bother me, in the least. I only mention...well, because...screw you GF.

All of this and especially the ménage part.  Group hug in the showers.  No?

247 has us currently ranked 9th in the country in recruiting with 18 commitments, four of which are 4-star recruits.  We only signed ten 4-star kids last year. 

13 of which are 4* recruits

FTFY

At a minimum, we should enter Amen Corner knowing that we are in position to make the college football playoffs should we take care of business.

Was that not what happened this season?

We knew if we won out, we were in. It was along shot. But we almost hit it!

Yep, it absolutely happened this year, but not one of us expected it.  I thought 8-4, like usual, with loses to Clemson, LSU, UGA, Bama. 

I'm just worried we're going to fall into a 7-5/8-4 as the mean, with 2013/2017 as the exceptions.

Well. As others have shown, the only thing that matters is if the committee likes you at the end of the season!

So you're saying we need a mullet on our AU logo?

Funny...and no I would never even photoshop that, so y'all will just have to visualize and throw up in your mouth on your own.

If that is the mean, than what is the mode? What about median? Are these questions for Chizad?Thx

I was told there would be no math.

Yeah. If I sit at the slot machine and keep stubbornly  hitting the fucking button at some point I’m going to hit a jackpot or two.  Might even hit two in a row.  Guess that makes me one of the top slot players in the country.

So Chip is responsible for Gus getting $7M/year for the next 7 years?

Ok.

Thats not what I am saying or meant to imply. I guess I am more looking at whats ahead with Gus staying and keeping his staff intact. There is plenty of talent to build on a pretty decent year.

[Buzz Killington]

I'm just going to pretend that Gus has turned the corner since the LSU game.
I am also going to pretend that Jacobs is gone.
Also, that I am married to Jennifer Aniston.

Look, I realize that you’re brand new to the board but if you’re going to make it around here, you’ve got to learn how to be negative.

I knew I shouldn't have dropped that hit of acid this morning.

His last contract stated that he would make $100,000 for 11 wins, $150,000 for 12, $200,000 for 13 etc...
followed by bonuses for making and winning SECCG, making playoffs and winning NCG.

That said, as Auburn fans should we not EXPECT a minimum of 10 wins per season from a top 5 head coach?
His requirements were met.
