So if Frazier had a grasp on let's say 50% of the offense, it's safe to presume Moseley had maybe 30%. What's Wallace got? 10%? maybe 15%
I feel for the dude. Getting thrown to the wolves...err Aggies.
Every time I think there's no way we lose (MSU, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Vandy) we sink to a new low.
Even last week, when I knew for sure we'd lose, we still failed to reach my expectations and sank to yet another low.
I'd like to say that I'd be shocked if we don't cover the 23 points spread against New Mexico State, but I dunno.
Their margin of defeat is just about as ugly as ours, except against much worse competition. May end up being...
THE UGLIEST GAME IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE
Don't think it's grasping the offense that's the issue. It's total inability to act like a fucking QB, make reads, and make throws, watching the rush, and going all fetal is the problem. And not getting protection. Maybe much coaching from this staff hasn't rubbed off on Wallace yet, and he'll actually play.^This^

There is no point in allowing Chizik to finish. Keeping him around does the program no good whatsoever.
This gives the rats time to jump ship as well.
People that genuinely care about the program need to get out front and start acting like it.
Except saving $3Mil on his buyout by waiting a month. That's not chump change.
This. Why not take a few more lumps and make the university another 3 Mill?
They are going to lose that much is lost revenue this weekend. I figure only 55,000 this weekend at let’s just average each ticket at $85.00 each. That comes out almost 3m right there (ticket sales alone) add in lost concessions, etc. Can we really afford to keep him around?
My speculation is that had they fired him after the A&M game, promoted (Whomever) and then got on the ‘We need your support†for this weekend to show you care for the team (Blah-Blah). They would have more folks in the stand. Now because they are staying the course X amount of folks are going to stay away just because of how pissed they are.
This is just my two cents.
The tickets are already sold as far as the university is concerned. University has their money from that. Now if you want to talk lost concessions or hotel revenue that's something different.
Where did you guys get your business degrees?

Best education one can get....well, at least they won't forget it.

Word on the streets is the buyout goes down on a prorated basis at ~$200k/month. The $2.5M number is the difference between December 2011 and December 2012, but the difference between Nov 1st and Dec 1st is only about $200k^^^^^^This guy reads my posts.^^^^^^^^
Instead of treated, you get tricked?
It would behoove the BOTs and president not to do anything until after signing day.

It comes across as a bitch move, will piss off recruits, and puts a new coach that much farther behind. IMO, the second the clock stikes 0:00 after the Iron Bowl, kick his ass to the curb. Assuming that you guys get somebody worth a shit and that recruits will recognize, the recruiting class will probably hold. Even if you have 5 guys or so drop off, that shouldn't be difficult for a good coach to overcome and replace.
Where did you guys get your business degrees? Hotels = tax revenue (City of Auburn), concessions = deduct costs in labor, electricity and raw material. Everything has costs before the bottom line is considered, so your numbers are not conservative. Ticket sales yes, but there are costs for the stadium to open before, during and after the game. Add to that maintenance costs, labor, security, etc. It would probably take at least three home games to make up that $3 million you speak of. The the school has to pay the opposing team $400,000+.

You do realize that once we sign those kids on signing day and if we fired the entire staff, they would have free reign from the NCAA to transfer anywhere they wanted without having to set out? That Blakely kid we have, yeah, he left b/c of Meyer leaving and Muschamp getting hired.
That is exactly what we need, sign 25 kids, fire the staff after NSD and then watch 10 to 12 of them walk and we wind up 10 to 12 scholarship players short down the road. Unless you want us to suck permanently, we could do just that and claim "Auburn Tigers...Forever Young!" as our new cheer.

However they would have to sit out a year.
2) Can you imagine the media shitstorm about "AU lying to recruits"?

Blakely had to sit a year.
I understand but our team is getting butt fucked every Saturday. NCAA has provisions for these types of things.What like an Anal Plug?

Hey, don't laugh. Those things feel really good if you take....wait, I mean....they have to sit out a year.
What?
My wife is reading 50 Shades of Grey right now, she is to that part where that device has come into play. She has been talking about this book since she started reading it and telling me about it, I half way listen and pay attention when she gets to the sex parts. The mentioned 'Anal Plug" and got my full attention. I just don't know if she meant it for her or me and I am afraid to ask. :haha:

I think the "no sitting out" part comes if the school is put on probation - a la Penn State - that's how their guys all got to transfer out without penalty.
Correct. I thought Blakey sat a year b/c he was injured. I was thinking they had to already be enrolled in classes to make them sit a year.Nope the moment the ink is dry on the fax machine is a binding contract. They must sit a year no matter the circumstances, unless the NCAA grants them a waiver like they did with Penn State.
