re: A&M offers Muschamp $1.5 million/yr for two years

What, Gus' power running game would be bad for WM? GTFO.

Gus will not have a running threat at qb next year. Along with the fact that your best receivers will probably be in the NFL next year, who will be the outside threat? Losing a center who has been a mainstay on the offensive line, AU will be in a rebuilding mode on offense next year. Not a great situation to break in a DC.

But please, don't let facts get in the way of your trolling.

Just giving my opinion, which is worth about as much as yours is. No need to get so defensive sport. What does how many plays a team runs have anything to do with it? Just shows SC ran ONE more play per game. WOW. What about TOP?

He has had some absolute studs at UF

I know he did. But being HC limits the amount of time spent with those studs. Just think about Kiffin at Bama this year. Kiffin had a ton of talent at USC also, but more duties as HC limited him. One responsibility as OC and he has shined.

I am not sure A&M has a recruiting advantage. As I said before, Auburn has recent events like winning and playing for national championships to sell. I honestly don't know what A&M has to sell except their delusions of greatness. The University of Texas has also controlled that state for the last 100 years and I expect things will return to normal before much longer

Besides their shitty coaching on the field, Ellis Johnson and his defensive staff also added little or nothing in recruiting. If Muschamp comes to Auburn, he could possibly bring Travaris Robinson with him according to rumors. The latter is a former Auburn player and has a reputation as a good recruiter

Just because A&M has gotten the best recruits in Texas the last 2 or 3 years doesn't mean it will last. Most Alabama fans are a big believer in history and it says A&M will never stay ahead of Texas for very long.

Rumors have also been circulating on Auburn message boards since early in the season that Auburn is about to invest some major money in facility improvements to the football program that would include a new football complex, weight room, players lounge, and likely some improvements to Jordan Hare. This was apparently set in motion because Malzahn believes subpar facilities have cost Auburn some recruits. The funding and planning for these things is supposedly already underway behind the scenes and it will be announced at some point during the offseason.

The fact that you consistently bring up the tsips in every conversation that involves A&M makes me question your authenticity as an Auburn poster

He is a front runner fan, one of those mouth breathers who enjoy college football more when "traditional powers are winning." He caught a whiff of how Texas fans talk down to us researching his troll posts, and he is addicted to that unbridled arrogance.

To be fair though, I don't think he is an outright Texas sympathizer. I have beaten that bush pretty hard and unlike the LSU fans around here for whom Texas is secretly their second favorite team I think he is not one given his responses. He is just an a-hole.

Auburn has had more success on the field than A&M even with Alabama at their highest point in the last 20 years and Texas at their lowest point in the last 20 years. Alabama wont always stay up and Texas wont always stay down. Just imagine how much better Auburn will be if or when the situation at those two schools reverses itself

Sure. I am not saying as an Auburn fan you don't have reason to look down on our program. It is just that most "real" Auburn fans don't care enough about us to do that, because we are as you like to say irrelevant.

You get the disconnect there right? Why do you care so much about us? That is the question you can never sufficiently answer. You say it is because we Texas A&M fans are such braggards you need to put us in our place, but only fans of programs that hate us (aka Big 12 programs) would care enough about A&M to even do that.

Hence the mystery that is auburnphan23.

If we are talking real talk then in my opinion Auburn would be worse.

I 100% believe a hotter forge makes stronger steel, and I 100% believe that one of the reasons Auburn has done so much better than A&M over time is because they use the most successful program alltime as their measuring stick while we have used the most overrated major program in the country as ours.

I think without a successful Bama, maybe Chiz isn't fired so quickly or something like that. I think the local expectations of Bama and LSU and other SEC fans rub off on each other and create an environment that breeds success.

That was the number one reason why I wanted A&M in the SEC. You keep saying we have 100 years of history against us, but the way I see it we went from playing checkers to playing chess after our SEC move. It is a completely new game, and we now have things we never had before (like all the SEC exposure).

LSU and Oklahoma were getting more 4 and 5 star recruits out of Texas than A&M was before Sumlin arrived

You mean before the SEC move that permanently changed everything.
