We need some cooler heads. This all makes no sense.

We spent $18 million in NIL this season.

Kelly’s buyout is $54 million. 54/18=3

Take the anger out of this. I’d rather keep BK and Baker and get a new offensive staff and re-up the roster plus some offensive lineman studs.

It’s not like we’re going to win anything for a few years if we burn it down. We can always burn it down next year (for less than $54 million).

Ask Auburn how this mentality worked out.

How much is coming out of your pocket besides tickets and concessions? You putting anything on buyout?

What do you care how other people choose to spend their money?

WTF? Coaching is horrendous. It's not going to matter. He needs to go today.

Its starting to feel like with NIL, coaching is a young man's game now. Guys over 50 just can't relate to kids now.

Do you think Auburn will be relevant for the next 5 years? And Freeze’s buyout is less than half of BK’s.

Spending $54 million to get rid of a coach is ridiculous. We won’t be able to fill the roster with SEC talent.

I’m telling you every SEC team wants us to do this so we’re fricked for a decade.

BK is asleep at the wheel counting his millions. He’s not putting in the work and his offensive staff is arse.

The money for NIL will decline as long as Kelly is the coach

The thing is coaches don’t have to relate to kids. The GM and NIL people do. The coaches have to mainly coach now and guys like BK who were better CEO type coaches are struggling. Hire coaches who are great coaches. Like the GM manage the roster.

I just think at this point that is WAY too big a risk to bring Kelly back next year, invest again in NIL and new coaches when he clearly isn’t the answer. If Kelly didn’t win it with the roster he had this year, he never will. Time to cut bait.

The problem is the offensive coordinator. Kelly has proven that he can 1. Hire a good OC (Denbrock), 2. Portal QB (JD), 3. DC (Baker).

Just put it all together in one season.

There is no leadership. Did you watch last night? BK is a manager who relies on his coaches to coach. He is not involved. Keeping Sloan was insane. Calling out the fans was insane. Every year he runs his mouth and embarrasses us. Too many issues to list.

Bruh, who is coming here? You realize with as big of a shite show as BK is you'd have to pay players and coaches even more to want to deal with this? It's over, whether anyone wants it to be or not. Hands are tied and BK has to go because the outlook is worse if he stays in all scenarios.
