It could be worse UT fans

We could be fans of Alabama Polytechnical Institute (Auburn).</p>

Think about what the next candidate for the head coaching position at the "Lovliest Villiage on the Plains" must consider:</p>

1. Impending NCAA investigation.</p>

2. Having Alabama in your division.</p>

3. Having HUGE expectations to beat Alabama every year.</p>

4. Recruiting the best players in your state against Saban.</p>

The Lord High King of SEC football is going nowhere soon. Saban is only 61. He has tried the NFL and didn't care for it. Look for him to remain on his throne for years to come. Suddenly, that head coaching job at Upper Podunk University you're presently in, doesn't look half bad.</p>

... but just you watch Jerry. The "Powers" down at the Barn will commit to write a check in a heart beat! Lowder, Raines and McGregor simply don't care to spend money. They are still paying for the church, several home mortgages's, past contracts and other hush monies to Dye, Hall, Oliver, Bowden, Tuberville, and yet untold other players! If only they could just write a check to the NCAA! I may be wrong, but I think that the Barn is the most or one of the most, penalized schools in the NCAA. But ain't it gonna be fun watching and speculating as the coaching merry go round begins?

I don't know much about the university but I have a customer near Auburn and its a great town.

Yep! In a past life, my company was owned by Bobby Lowder. He sits on {and controls} the Board of Regents and is the single largest contributor to Auburn. I heard plenty those years form his office. Lowder's daughter is the one who got Terry Bowden the HC job in the first place. She was his very "Private Secretary" while he was at Samford. Then she went off to California for a year and came back with a bouncing baby boy! Bowden still has a Gag Order on him or he has to pay back the buy out ... plus the other hush money. While he was doing his TV commentator thingy, several times he was asked questions about Auburn and he answered no commit!? Can't say that I would blame him though!
