We just beat LSU 84-80 IN Baton Rouge....does this mean we have some life? Ha...hell no, we suck.  It means LSU REALLY REALLY sucks. They suck worse.

Not really. This may have bought Lebo an extra week or two. With a loss we could have fired his ass tonight.

Just like finishing strong last year was probably the worst thing that could have happened because it prolonged this dead end bound train another year on the tracks.

exactly.  Worst thing that could happen is to go on some conference winning streak.  It's like most Cowboy fans....kinda sucks that they won that playoff game....another year of coach yuk, yuk in Big D.

Don't look now...

It's time for the annual "Does Lebo need another year?" debate from 50% of Auburn fans. 

Proposition- Jeff Lebo should be retained for one more year.

Premise 1 - He was up by 20 against Tennessee.
Premise 2 - He almost beat Kentucky. 
Premise 3 - He just needs one more year to get his recruits in.
Premise 4 - He doesn't have the fan support.  He will next year with the new arena.
Premise 5 - His facilities suck, and the arena is awesome for football recruiting basketball practice.
Premise 6 - Jay Jacobs probably couldn't hire anyone better anyway. 

Any questions?  I think not!

You are correct, but I am not in that 50%...just happy to see a victory, no matter the opponent.  Lebo should have been gone before last season, but the late push to the NIT saved his job for at least this year.
There is some talent on this team, but none of them are schooled in the fundamentals.  That is ALL coaching, or lack thereof.

I agree. Knowing when the right time to become an angry lynch mob is a tricky thing.

Last year was poised to be that time, but then he had a great run at the end of the season. Can't fire a man after a run like that, no matter how bad he fucked the pooch before. Doesn't buy him a contract renewal or anything. Just buys him another year to see if he's gotten on the right track finally.

Coming out this year and sucking as frequently as he has, shows beyond doubt that that run was an anomaly. Now knowing this for certain, it is time for him to be shown the door.

Rod and Sonny said Lebo is absolutely and unequivocally not the problem. He's doing a great job. Doing everything that can possibly be done

Bonus. Raise. Extension. New contract. Now.

You just had to put something in there about the Boys didnt ya? LOL

But you're right. I was hoping not to make the playoffs, fire "Aww Shucks" and then Hire Gruden or Cowher. I really wanted Shanahan but Redskins snagged him up. Looks like we have Wade into 2011......Awww shucks..... :rolleyes:
