We'll still own KY regardless. 31 out of the last 33... how can that be?

Excellent. Leach to the SEC. We almost never have to play him. We get to see him go up against Saban every year. Make it happen.

Make it so! I wanted him after Fulmer.

Leach was a jerk as a person, but was an excellent coach. Texas Tech was nothing before he got there, was a real force while he was there, and has been nothing again since he left. He might be a great hire, if not for Tennessee, then for somebody. Just don’t give him the keys to any storage sheds.

Besides, Bear Bryant did worse things to all his players in a little town called Junction, Texas.

DS and Rickart:

Please continue to suck it.

That is all.

Carry on.

If UT lands Leach, Currie might have saved his job (probably not though). Leach will have the fans excited, and if they aren't about his hiring, they are stupid. At this point I'd give that man everything short of the ability to lock players up in an equipment shed

They fired Currie this morning.

LOL!

who is A&M going to hire anyways?

We can fire like nobody's business.

Still working on this whole hiring thing though.

A&M is hiring Jimbo Fisher after FSU's game Saturday.

Ole Miss just received an additional bowl ban and further scholarship reductions. The extra year of bowl ban means players can transfer to other programs without sitting out the usual penalties.

I would assume A&M is happy about that. Given my opinion on Stoops, I am not a Fisher fan.

Mostly happy, its a great hire. Comparable to when Alabama hired Saban (although no hire we could make is ever going to be likely work out as well as it ended up for them).

There is some sniveling, mostly because our fanbase rooted harder than most against Jameis Winston for the 2013 Heisman trophy (because of Manziel). So there is a contingent that are going to have to work around some issues of thinking that Jimbo Fisher is the debil and a rape enabler for not suspending Winston back then, or whatever.

Lord willing, they have a decent quarterback who wants to come to UNC...

Hands off! Recruiting players kicked off other teams, and turning them into stars, is what WE do at Auburn!

Do you want to win in the SEC or not?

Someone (an FSU fan probably) posted on Twitter a couple of days ago that Jimbo leaving FSU for TAM would be like leaving Britney Spears for a sugar mamma. The money might be good but you're going to have perform every morning before she puts her makeup on. Although in truth, that might apply to Britney now...

When you beat Saban twice in a row, this is what you can expect. We have all been warned.

Does Ole Miss have any players with behavior issues we can poach?
