GOD HELP US.

Auburn.rivals.com

Anyone interested in having an NFL get together next year? I'm done. With the BCS shit, the Bama shit, the Auburn shit, I'm done.

Good thing I've got my Saints.

FUCK!

I'm not trying to use hyperbole, but does anyone else realize how bad this is?

Seriously. We've lost on all accounts.

I need someone else to respond right now. I can't get the words out. There is TOO MUCH to say about this. We got rid of Tuberville for a coach who couldn't win more than 5 games in his entire tenure at a Big 12 school.

At least ya'll are only paying him $3 million a year, though. There is that.

You guys got pwnt.

sry.

I'm...at a loss for words too....

FUCK Auburn. FUCK Jay Jacobs. FUCK Jay Gogue. FUCK that entire university. I'm mailing my diploma back.

I'm seriously thinking of driving to Auburn tonight to riot. Starting on the president's lawn.

Did they seriously just fucking fire Tommy fucking Tuberville for Gene motherfucking Chizik??? Someone who pulled off the damn near impossible task of making Iowa State WORSE?

This is the end of Auburn. The Auburn Apocalypse. Congrats, Bama. You won. We are no more.

I can't figure this out. What happened to 2008? We went from being nationally respected, top recruiting classes, tremendous SEC success, annual top 15 preseason rankings, 7-3 over our rival to a debacle in recruiting, a 5-7 season, a debacle on our coaching staff, the loss of a decent coach (with hopes for a BETTER one), and finally, the icing on the cake, the hiring of Gene Chizik.

My letter to Jay Gogue.

Quote

If he's the defensive coordinator, I commend you for an excellent hire, and I await the announce of the head coach. There's your case.

Gene Chizik is not "unproven." He has PROVEN that he cannot run a successful football program. At Auburn, we don't desire excuses hence why there was an outcry for Tuberville's position to be terminated. Why his team was 0-8 in the Big 12 North has no merit and should not be taken into consideration. The fact is that he couldn't cut it. As a high school educator, I promote the philosophy held by innovators such as Ralph Waldo Emerson that one can't expect to succeed by waiting on the perfect situation. Those who are successful fight through adversity. My students who accept that notion end the school year with grades to post on the refridgerator. Those who don't succeed often have outside reasons such as "my 9th grade English teacher didn't go over that kind of stuff" or "You gave me too much homework, which put me in a difficult situation to succeed" and etc.

Gene Chizik had the opportunity to prove himself as a head coach of a big time football program. He failed. He did not fight through adversity. Even IF he was dealt a 2-7 (worst hand in Texas Hold Em Poker), he could have salvaged something. Winning ZERO games is not what anybody wants.

If Tuberville indeed did not want to be the coach here anymore, it was YOUR responsibility to change his mind. If Tuberville indeed was fired, then it was YOUR responsibility to have someone BETTER to replace him. You've chosen a coach who has failed at an FBS school.

Sincerely,

An Auburn Alum, A former Tiger Host, A current teacher, A current and always supporter of Auburn football.

I just left a store in a mall where an Alabama fan announced the hiring in a loud and gleeful voice. Most didn't understand his happiness, but the few who did expressed shock or they laughed out loud. I had nothing to say.

I am sitting in my truck in the parking lot now on the verge of tears. Tears of anger and tears of frustration.

I love Auburn. I loved Auburn through the Barfield years. I cannot love the joke this motherfucking FOOL Jay Jacobs and this RETARD Jay Gouge are allowing Auburn to become. Even in our darkest days I've been proud to wear the colors. Not now. I am ashamed and embarrassed.

I will no longer wear my Auburn gear. I am removing the AU stickers from my vehicles. I will not replace them until Jacobs is fired. I have attended my last Auburn game until Jacobs is fired.

I won't be posting here much longer either. I simply cannot deal with this. What had Auburn done for God to punish us so?

This is the worst feeling I have ever had as an Auburn fan.

Iowa St was 0-8 in conference play WITHOUT PLAYING TEX, TEX TECH, OR OKLAHOMA.

What's his e-mail? I think he (and Jacobs) needs a flood of e-mails from the likes of which they've never seen.

Well...to say I'm shocked would be an understatement. On the plus side he was good at AU and Tex as the DC. That's about the only positive thing I can seem to say about this hire. Damn...damn...damn...
It still isn't official yet, so there may be a little hope left. Just a little though.
I'll still support AU with all my heart and soul, perhaps just not as loudly now.
