Definitive word on football attrition

Hey everyone. Just got off the phone with trusted Auburn spokesman Kirk Sampson.

DE JoMarcus Savage is off the team.

LB Christian Thompson is off the team.

S Marcus Jemison is off the team.

DE Cameron Henderson is ON the team and, as far as I can tell, is in good standing. The same goes for WR Philip Pierre-Louis.

TO CLARIFY: PPL and Henderson are on the team.

No explanation has been given about why the three players were booted off the roster.

This happened back when Coach Muschamp was with Saban at MIami.

They were having their christmas party at Coach Sabans house. Everyone was there. A worker came up to Muschamps wife and said Coach Saban would like to see you in the bedroom. Not knowing what it was about Muschamp said get in there to his wife. She entered thge bedroom and there was Coach Saban. He told her he liked to give the Christmas bonuses to all the wives because they have to work hard at home with the kids, etc. So Muschamps wife took the card with the bonus. Saban leaned into kiss her on the cheek(which she didnt know). So she kissed him on the lips.

She said Sabans eyes went big and he left the room.

The next year, same party, a workers said to Mrs. Muschamp you can go to the back bedroom now. She knew it was for the bonus. She entered the bedroom and their was Mrs. Saban handing out the bonuses. Ha, I guess she didnt like Mrs. Muschamp smooching her husband, innocently of course.

So what happens when two coaches in the SEC have it in their contract to be the highest paid?

PDWT, after seeing pictures of Mrs Muschamp and Mrs Saban, I can see why Mrs Saban decided to hand out the checks.

PDWT, that's a funny story, but I wouldn't want anything from Saban.

I called those books "Twilight Crack" because of my wife's voracious consumption.

I'm happy.

I have no earthly idea what y'all are talking about. MrsTHT is also a voracious reader, but unless it involves maps or Auburn, she doesn't tell me what she's reading.

I now see whay Tuberville left (err...was canned).

Twenty something people from his last two classes never made it and are long gone.

I don't think my wife has ever heard of the Twlight books, so thankfully I've only heard of it from hearing people at work talk about it.

Snow- that's an interesting statistic. But we all know Tubs was about to turn it around ;-)

I am a day trader. Most of the time during the day I have CNBC on to keep up with what is going on in the stock market. Even on CNBC the hosts seem to be getting paid based upon the number of times they can say Michael Jackson per hour. I think I am going to go insane.

10:07 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

I have no doubt that last season was a fluke due to a bad coaching fit. There really isn't much to turn around. Yea, there are some depth issues and we lost more players after Tuberville left, but I have no doubt we would have contended in the west had he remained.

Blogger Aeronaut said...

aarghh.. We are back to 'we lost players due to coaching change'.

11:09 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Not trying to rile anyone up. It is just going by history. Other than his first and last season, we contended for the west every year. During that span we averaged over 9 wins a season. It is just going by the facts.

This isn't to say that Chiz and company won't do a great job. It was just a bad time for a change because of the timing. We lost a lot of recruits after Tuberville quit and the recruiting class didn't fill our needs. This cannot be blamed on Chizik. His staff had very little time to recruit.

11:09 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

By the way, I will be very surprised if we don't sign at least 5 offensive linemen this recruiting class.

11:11 AM  
Blogger Jet said...

Aeronaut ...

It happens.

I don't know if it's because they weren't good enough players, or they were bad people, or some other issue.

11:13 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Hmmm, the President is on CNBC. I will be surprised if they don't ask him for his thoughts on the death of Michael Jackson.

chip there's a joke in there about Saban talking out of his arse and kissing his arse, but I can't work it out just yet.

Steve, maybe they'll ask him what the federal penalty is for throwing away the classic Farrah Fawcett poster. My mom found mine a couple of months ago at her house and threw it out. Fortunately, she did not do the same with my baseball cards.

11:27 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Man, I wish I still had my Farrah Fawcett poster. I am also feeling very old these days.

11:31 AM  
Blogger Jet said...

As much as Farrah was a babe, Jaclyn Smith was the one that cranked my tractor.

11:33 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Yea, I really thought Farrah was hot back in the 70s. That is before I recognized the, ummm, how to be nice, hmmm, the air between her ears.

11:33 AM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Jaclyn is much more sexy in retrospect. I appreciate a babe that might be able to kick my butt and has brains to boot.

I have a low bimbo tolerance by the way. I was talking to a tech support lady at Time Warner Cable earlier. She asks me if I am running Vista. I say no. She asks me if I am running XP. I say no, I am running Fedora Linux. I am finally relieved that the questioning is over.

Then she asks if I am running internet explorer. I say no, guess again.

Love the Norm avatar by the way. Quotes from Norm are the best.

Woody: What's shaking, Mr. Peterson?
Norm: Everything from the neck down.

Woody: How's life treating you, Mr. Peterson?
Norm: Like a baby treats a diaper.

Norm Trivia: Did you know that the bar fly on Deep Space Nine's name was Morn? Yea, an alien Norm.

11:47 AM  
Blogger Scott Chocolate said...

Overall, I agree that Jaclyn was hotter, but I didn't have a poster of her for my mom to throw away. Interestingly, my mom knew the poster was important enough that she bothered telling me she threw it out, but somehow decided it was not important enough to ask if I minded if she threw it out.

I'm going to put up some stuff from Tommy Thigpen in a bit. He provided some interesting insight into Auburn's new recruiting techniques.

You'll also find out what derailed his high-school teaching career.

I have a question for you HOTTIES and expert Auburn fans.....how would I find out when Auburn Fall practice begins? If the answer is call the Athletic Department, specifically what # would I call?
Thx

12:02 PM  
Blogger Scott M. Brannan said...

800-AUB-1957 is the number for everything. they usually have Fan Day the 1st Sat of Aug.(this year that is Aug.1st). in the past they have had 1 or 2 days practice before then, right? that's my guess, but with the 1st being on a Sat., who knows.

No way is AU favored in the West this year if Tubbs is still the coach. They were favored last year and folded like a lawn chair.

The recruiting class was a mess for the last few years and he WAS NOT bringing them back anytime soon. Certainly no sooner than Chizik and Co can do.

How is that for a definitive statement?

I have a suggestion...let's stop defending and bashing the ex-coaches. That discussion causes me to want to weigh in on it....except that the issue too far in the past to regurgitate and I also hate the taste of vomit.

I told Rhodes (2 y/o son) the other night that my head hurt. He got me a Band-Aid for it. It didn't work as he'd intended but I appreciated the effort.

awww sweet Rhodes

Amelia, Dirty's 3 year old, asked if her tummy was going to crack (like an egg so the baby can come out). Then she asked if her tummy would be "broke". Then she said, "Don't worry mommy I'll tape it.
