This was the best post on here. :bow:

None of that will happen. Regardless, people act like they don't know what's going on behind-the-scenes when they meet with the university's president on a regular basis. Their governor (and the booster class) is meddling in the affairs of the university, and it's extremely obvious that there's a lack of institutional control. This isn't about Kiffin or Wade, etc., it's about the clown in their governor's mansion.

Auburn is due for a voodoo year.

Everyone's missing the funniest part of this: Kiffin graduated from Fresno State, so if they're involved, it's likely that he dropped the goods as a form of payback.

Honestly, after sleeping on it, I think their presser will involve them announcing a lawsuit against the CFP and ESPN/FOX, or more than likely, it'll just be a routine event.

That has been debunked multiple times. He left over the contract differences between us and Florida, because the BoT placed several limits on what the AD could offer this go around (mainly in relation to the guaranteed portions of the buyout, etc.). Additionally, while his wife wanted to go to Auburn, most people believe Sumrall's first choice was always Florida.

Using this list (and not including whomever Kentucky hires):

1. Jon Sumrall - The fans hate the hire, so if he struggles, he won't survive beyond the next AD being hired (or 2-4 seasons). If anything, he'll be the first one to hit the ejection seat for greener pastures
2. Lane Kiffin - Has the best circumstances but the shortest leash. It's win or get tarmacked
3. Ryan Silverfield - General apathy from the Arkansas faithful
4. Alex Golesh - Due to the current perception surrounding our program, Auburn can't afford to re-enter the coaching carousel again for some time. However, out of the five hires, I think this one is the best one out of the bunch (excluding Kiffin). The worst case for Golesh is that he'll end up in Arkansas in a few years (like Sumrall will for Kentucky)
5. Pete Golding - Due to the circumstances surrounding his hiring, he'll have a long leash to make improvements

Give me a break: With his wife's connections to the university and the City of Gainesville, he was always taking the Florida job.

Your fifth rule is completely irrelevant.

Made up nonsense is just that... made up.

Why can’t Missou break through???

Because the Big 6 (soon to be the Big 8) runs the conference. When you're going up against half of the Top 15 (and arguably, half of the Top 25) best programs in the sport on an annual basis, you're not 'breaking' through as a program.
