    I'm not talking about their football program. To graduate the amount of student debt that any university graduates and pay that amount of money to buy out a football coach is at best, incongruous. As a university president, I don't see allowing that to happen in the era of twitter outrage.

    It's like you've never heard of Auburn before.  It's literally only a university so that they can have a football program.

    We’re experiencing two different realities if you think Auburn gives one fat rat’s ass about optics. They’ve made no qualms about buying players and defending it publicly. They’ve graduated players that couldn’t read. They’ve let donors pursue the hiring of the next head coach while the current head coach is fully employed, on multiple occasions. They’ve been sanctioned by the NCAA damned near as many times as any other school in history. All of this shit is documented and can be googled. There is a fuckton of ignorance about histories and behaviors with programs on the recruiting board, and it’s bizarre. 

    The university's (sic) accrediting board put them on probation because of athletics.  That's hard to top.

    Also, google "Professor Petee."

    How much of a Chance is there really of him being fired though? I know a lot don auburn fans and boosters want home gone every year, but After this season he’s still guaranteed like 36 or 30 million, I believe. 

    I know Auburn and the SEC schools don’t give a shit about anything but football, but that’s an astronomical number when you factor in the cost of acquiring a new coaching staff on top of it. 

    They nearly fired him last season.  If they go 6-6 and get blown out by Bama, there's no way they don't fire him.

    go fuck yourself. The point of this forum is to ask questions.

    The sign on the street says I could park there, and somewhere in the texas driving handbook it says I couldn't.   I was only asking the group if I had an argument with the city.  

     

    THAT'S CALLED ENTRAPMENT!

    You should put the entire system on trial!

  5. Meh.  Thought it was really disappointing.  

    The lionesses literally never changed expression.  I remember the hyenas being a lot more entertaining in the original.   Seth Rogan was the best thing about this version.

    A current player in sophomore safety Leon O'Neal Jr. has also had an impact on Alford.

    "Leon, of course. He's the biggest spokesperson up there for A&M," Alford said. "I've known him before this, so it really means a lot when he's really wanting me up there, playing back there with him."

    Hey Xavier, Leon ain't playing back there.

    Yeah that's exactly why I said succeeding 30 percent of the time is only considered successful in baseball. It can get you to Cooperstown. Nowhere else can you fail 70 percent of the time and retain your job. 

    No one who makes outs 70% of the time makes it to Cooperstown.

    HRs in the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th for the immortal Aristides Aquino of Cincy. Will get one more AB. 

    7 HRs in 10 games.  Better start than Yordan Alvarez.  28 HR in AAA this season in 323 PA.
