Hey everyone. My friend Charles Goldberg, he of immense Internet fame at The Gold Mine, is reporting that Gus Malzahn has told Louisiana Tech intermediaries that he's not interested in that job.I didn't pay much attention to this after he reportedly was in Ruston, La., last weekend ... while I saw him at the AU-UK basketball game. That generally means he isn't interviewing.
Anyway, here's what Malzahn had to say:
``My family and I love Auburn and being part of the Auburn Family. Coach Chizik is an outstanding coach to work for and Auburn is a great place to be both professionally and personally. I’m excited about the future of this program and helping Auburn build on the foundation that Coach Chizik has established during the last 13 months.”
So that's one less rumor to worry about. Right?

Who wouldn't like Auburn?!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE AUBURN TOO! 3 cheers for sweet productive offense!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to see Malzahn didn't really leave any wiggle room. He is definitely coming back.
ReplyDeleteWAR EAGLE CGM!!!
ReplyDeleteI think he is a pretty straight shooter. I like what he said.
ReplyDeleteThe Gus Bus is getting ready to ROLL!!!!
ReplyDeletenever envisioned him leaving for La Tech, but confirmation is good!
ReplyDeleteHuzah! One less rumor indeed.
ReplyDeleteNow let's wrap up this recruiting class and get crack-a-lackin' on the 2010 season.
HECK YES this is one less thing to worry about.
ReplyDeleteBig day for us Auburn fans.
All the bammers can EAT IT (that includes my Dad who called me in near glee that Malzahn was reported leaving).
I was so peeved last night, but I remember he was a bammer and can't hear well.
bammers=walmartians
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have blamed Gus if he had left for a high profile job like Tennessee, but LaTech would have been a poor career decision. Just win and he will be able to pick his spot.
ReplyDelete16 under par and none blabbing!!!
ReplyDeleteG, what are you thoughts and where we may or may not start the season rankings wise? If we do indeed finsih in the top 3/5 in recruiting and filled some holes I think we should start somewhere around 20.
ReplyDelete"I don't care what you're doing, DO IT FULL SPEED! If you are opening a candy bar, RIP THE MOTHER F$%@ER OFF"
ReplyDeleteJust read that quote from Hugh Nall during his Auburn days... kinda like it.
This generally means that he generally plans on returning next season, but in general, if a head coaching job presented itself, he'd generally consider it because that's generally what assistant coaches do.
ReplyDeleteI'll feel better about it in a couple of weeks.
Hey I like Auburn. That Gus must be a swell guy.
ReplyDeleteIs jet crawfishing on his 3 yr guarantee?
ReplyDeleteI have it on good authority he'll be here at least 3 years.
ReplyDeleteGus still has some play calling things he needs to work on as an OC before he is the main guy.
ReplyDeleteI have it on good authority that this ice cream I"m eating is really good.
ReplyDeleteI have it on good "authoriti" that I am going home.
ReplyDeleteAgreed RK.
ReplyDeleteI put some of that down to this being his first year and just as his players were in the middle of grasping a new offense, Gus was in the middle of finding a comfort level in play calling with the players he was working with.
The balance in that should be so much better next year.
I hope Hugh Nall doesn't preach that same message to his drivers now that he is a a trucking executives... although that would explain some things on the interstate.
ReplyDeleteMmmm, crawfish.
ReplyDeleteCH=B, I'd say in the 20-25 range.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be something we hear alot of for awhile. Kinda funny how nobody came after the former staff like they will these guys. It would be nice to hold on to these guys through the 2011 season.
ReplyDeleteAlright i've got to get this straight now. After Malzahn comes out and says he's not leaving, Evan Woodbury(Bammer) says he will be a candidate at MTSU. Because MTSU is so much better than La Tech right? Jay, send Evan an e-mail telling him the think before he writes.
ReplyDeleteDon't let the bammer reporters get you riled up. The fact that everybody wants Malzahn is a good thing. Proves we have a guy who is good at what he does.
ReplyDeleteI got 3 under par on Digger's game on my first try - 7 silenced, 2 still blabbing. That was fun!
ReplyDeleteIt's probably been posted but Jay G's great article yesterday in the MA is featured in the Bleacher Report on all the Auburn action. I got in my email today...just had to read it ....again!
ReplyDeleteScott Choc you and some of those other guys are too good for me.I stll haven't hit par yet. I got to keep trying.
ReplyDeleteOk...one more "Caption this Pic" for the road....
ReplyDeleteCoaches
I'll go first....
"Kiss it Bammers!"
Funny how many UAT fans were doggin' AU about hiring a high school coach for an OC and now every job that comes open, they want mention his name as a candidate.
ReplyDeleteBelieve or not, I never really followed recruiting that much for AU. I just sort of kept up with it. AU would get a highly rated recruit and the fans were geeked about it. Most fans always talked about rankings did not matter. AU coaches will 'coach 'em up'. Now, two classes later, AU has turned away several highly rated athletes and seem to be on the verge of a top 3 class. (I think AU ends up #2). Amazing turn around.
ReplyDeleteBefore the internet I didn't even know recruiting was going on. Now I read more and more about it.
ReplyDeleteFSJ
ReplyDeleteAAAAHHHH
CHOOO comes later
My best was 16 under with no blabbers.
ReplyDeleteKind of off topic but here goes. At church yesterday morning we sang a hymn that I have sang many many times. For the first time one line stood out differently than before and made a lot of sense.
ReplyDeleteSin had left a Crimson stain.
Explains a lot.
J/K, sort of
WTC-I was once one of those that thought rankings really didn't matter as long as you were in the top 25. I was wrong. You must be in the top 10 to sustain success. We are starting that path this year. I'm with you..top 3 fo sho. Latt, Whitaker, Jones and 3 others could push us to the top.
ReplyDeleteNot only rankings but those that qualify. We can't afford sign and place guys right now.
ReplyDeleteCHB-Even with thoe, I do nto think AU catches UF. they are loading up this year. Funny how that works. Their coach was looking to retire for a while and when he decides to come back, he grabs TOP athletes at all positions.
ReplyDeleteI'm announcing my college choice on HABOTN... and I'm doing it RIGHT NOW!
ReplyDeleteCome NSD, which I believe is the end of February for season ticket holders, I am going to sign with AUBURN!!!
I wonder how long before ITAT and the others report my commitment.
CHB you are too good for me. I may stop playing
ReplyDeletedigger here is a hint. Look for small landmarks and judge your timing off of those.
ReplyDeleteYou forget, video games became popular during my younger years and adults my age make them a billion dollar industry.
ReplyDeleteWTC, I really believe it depends on how we finish and how UF finishes. We could finish up with at least 4 5*'s.
ReplyDeleteChances are we don't catch them but it is possible. So I guess I'm with you...#2 and one of many victories against the walmartians.
ReplyDeleteAnybody here play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on the PS3?
ReplyDeleteI just got it... I need some tips, I'm getting my arse handed to me online!
It would take something big to catch UF, and Texas is probably out of reach as well. I expect Lane to work some magic and USC to finish well as well. I think if we close on some of our big recruits we could pass Bama, which would make me a little happy.
ReplyDeleteNo matter where we finish, me thinks this recruiting season is sign of good things to come.
Quit your job and devote your life to it D Miller, its your only hope.
ReplyDeleteDid you run today?
Back in the day, I ran 10K's. The advice to train up to a 3 mile per run point then go get professionally fitted was the best scenerio in the mid 90's and sounds like it still is.
ReplyDeleteI pronate and ASICs gels equipped for such were the best.
Dmiller- i've just gotten the game as well. I'll have to play with you online in the near future.
ReplyDeleteWake... I did run... shouldn't have... I have a chest cold and my lungs are hating me right now
ReplyDeleteeddie... did you get Modern Warfare or MW2?
add me, my ID is dmiller1856
Dmiller- friend request sent. I have MW, same as you.
ReplyDeleteYou boys and your video games. We don't have a game system in the Norm household. The F4* will be 3 next week and I'm kind of thinking I might like to get one for him this year, possibly Christmas since we already have his birthday stuff squared away. So, if I do get one, what's a good kid friendly system to get? I'm kind of inclined to think Wii. Thoughts?
ReplyDeleterequest accepted... I'll be back on getting my butt kicked after dinner...
ReplyDeleteNorm- just got a WIi and my 4 year old daughter is loving that. Everything else has way too many buttons.
ReplyDeleteKid friendly... wife friendly... Wii...
ReplyDeletePlaying Mario Wii now.
ReplyDeletethe new Mario game? Or MarioKart?
ReplyDeleteWe have MarioKart...
New Mario game. It's a fun family game.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the insight and validation of my thinking.
ReplyDeleteDan, I quote that hymn a lot.
ReplyDeleteConecuh sausage on the grill, Alaga syrup and biscuits.
Now that's a meal.
Was Reed always a 5* on Scout? I see where he is now.
ReplyDeleteScout moved Auburn to 5
ReplyDeleteAuburn University Jay Gogue ranked ninth in salary among survey of 185 public universities.
ReplyDeleteGogue is paid $727,000-plus per year.
He believes in Auburn and loves it.
jet, now that's a meal.
ReplyDeletesaaaaalute
I set out a few days ago to win 100 straight games of freecell (I cheat and back up when I get stuck). I have 99 straight wins and I'm stuck... I'm pretty pissed.
ReplyDeleteKAthy... he was bumped up today.. and Kenneth Carter was bumped to a 4* on Scout as well...
ReplyDeleteI never understood why Kenneth Carter was a 3* after the season he had.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry guys you can breath easy, I figured it out and made it to 100.
ReplyDeleteWake = The Red Elephant Club of Free Cell
ReplyDeleteD.Miller - LGG Bryron is Call of Duty all-star.
ReplyDeleteWake isn't troubled by ethics or fairplay. He set a goal and achieved said goal. He's a real American Hero worthy of a jingle.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize Reed was a 5 star on scouts. I do think that is something new. Scouts tends to be more conservative with their stars. Hopefully Reed will be a great one.
ReplyDeleteI'll expect Jet to have composed this Jingle and posted it here shortly.
ReplyDeleteThe REC quote was below the belt. I may have cheated, but at least I admitted I exist.
ReplyDeleteHoly Cow!
ReplyDeleteI just saw where Mobilz posted today!
THT... I'm not sure if I'm quite ready to take on any all-stars... but tell him to add me on the ps3, if he wants to...
ReplyDeleteTo the tune of "Your Cheatin' Heart"
ReplyDeleteYou're cheatin', Wake!
At a card game!
Sometimes you lose,
But won't take blame.
You'll hit undo
So you're not through
You're cheatin, Wake
We'll tell on you.
You win a game
4 out every 5.
But then you cheat
To keep a streak alive.
You think you're big,
But you're just a runt.
You're a cheating jerk,
Like a Red Elephant.
ola
ReplyDeleteHowdy jhag
ReplyDeleteCreepy Jet, I just listened to Hank Jr sing Your Cheatin Heart. Where are you hiding? The closet? Under my Bed? Surely you can't fit in one of my drawers... I better check to be safe.
ReplyDeleteWell that wasn't exactly my same train of thought but I salute the quality workmanship.
ReplyDeleteWake, I can assure you I don't want to be in your drawers.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY!
ReplyDeleteMLK? It's time for...
ReplyDeleteBEASLEY!!!
ReplyDeleteI really should be more careful when I speak of drawers.
ReplyDeleteI've read in several places that Zac Etheridge will get his neck brace off at the end week. That's terrific news.
ReplyDeleteSo the Fisher kid gets invited because his pops might be around every now and then...i like this strat
ReplyDeleteSo when is MJT day? And do all the hotties get off work for it?
ReplyDeleteMJT - give me enough notice and I'll be sure not to work on your day.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Cutcliff took the Vols discipline with him to Duke, they just released 3 players for weapons violations. Since when do Duke players carry weapons?
ReplyDeleteThis guy can't make up his mind!
ReplyDeleteUSC commitment OL Eric Mack of Calhoun County told the BigSpur.com that he will not take an unofficial visit to Auburn this weekend and is totally firm with his USC commitment.
USC is a powder keg.
ReplyDeleteBoom
You know, if Kathy wasn't so gosh darn young, I would say SHE was wtc's Mom.
ReplyDeleteNever misses a beat with recruiting.
Thanks for the compliment E-Bro! I am young at heart!
ReplyDeleteKornblut again?
ReplyDeleteHas this guy got a single shred of credibility?
TheBigSpur.com Miller. Is that the same guy?
ReplyDeleteI think this guy definitely looks through crimson-colored glasses:
ReplyDeletehttp://bleacherreport.com/articles/328440-looking-ahead-to-2010-in-the-sec-west-in-football-buy-hold-or-sell
I would have to say they did slightly better than expected, though, and by slightly I mean they won eight games instead of six or seven.
Auburn does lose many of the players who made winning eight games in 2009 possible.
Auburn has a good recruiting class coming that some experts rate as high as top 10
Auburn will still get pushed around in 2010.
Never mind, I read his bio. Definitely doesn't know what he is talking about.
ReplyDeleteYeah that is a pretty laughable article. Someone who is as obviously biased as him has no business trying to pass off his writing as legit journalism... even if it is only on the bleacher report.
ReplyDeleteI think he is someone who probably knows football, and his writing isn't too bad. It would probably be an ok read if he was writing about the Pac 10 where he could view things objectively.
Jay/HABOTN folks...
ReplyDeleteI'm an Atlanta resident and Falcons season ticket holder I saw the Keith Brooking thing getting national air time. He's not an overly popular figure around here.
Just curious about your thoughts.
side question:
Jay vs. Conan...
http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/6d1caacad1/jay-s-2004-announcement?rel=player
Jay's video from 04.
Wow, the guy from the bleachreport is either really biased or really uniformed. Probably both.
ReplyDeleteWe lose some key players, but not alot, We only had, what, like 12 seniors or something?
Also loved how he mentioned Auburn loses its 'best' tigh end.
Tommy Trott is an Auburn man and I appreciate all he's given to the program the last few years, but I don't think any Auburn fans are going to be lamenting his departure as a contributor to the football team.
Boy I'm glad Jay cleared that up years ago. Can you imagine what a mess it would be if Conan and him went to war over who should have the Tonight Show?
ReplyDeleteThis is not Brookings first cry-baby episode, guess that's who he is.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed www.peopleofbammer.com, and I love pointing out "typical" Bama fans to my brother-in-law who, like most, didn't go there. But I hate going to other college sites and reading Auburn fans who make stupid, biased comments. As my mother taught me, "Don't let anyone out-gentleman you."
ReplyDeleteI'm happy about our class, but I'm nervous about D linemen. I think that because so many of our recruits have gained *'s late in the recruiting process and after the HS all star games our coaches must be good at evaluating talent and getting sleepers.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, Hotties.
ReplyDeleteHappy R. E. Lee Birthday!
I get to spend it in prison.
Good morning, Hotties!
ReplyDeleteMorning hotties!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning! THT, some refer to my place of business as a prison, but it's not that bad! Hope everyone has a wonderful day and remember, keep hate alive!
ReplyDeletePlease forgive me if I refuse to acknowledge or celebrate Robert E. Lee Day. I'm glad the south didn't win and I hate the mentality that some believe that day stands for. As far as Robert E. Lee, I enjoy his significance in the history of this country and admire the tough decisions he had to make. E-Bro is a civil war buff and has drug the family to many Civil War battlefields, so I understand that. I just hate the stigmatization and the way some use this previous holiday in the wrong context. I'm very glad that the Holiday was changed to honor MLK.
ReplyDeleteSorry, had to get that off my chest.
I'd bet MLK and REL were both righteous dudes.
ReplyDeleteehyou- I have no doubts about that. I just see R.E. Lee day used in a bad way, just like the confederate flag. That flag has a lot of history too it, but it is now used in inappropriate ways. Sorry, just my 2 cents and I may get hammered for it.
ReplyDeleteYou know I won't hammer you, Eddie! I completely agree!
ReplyDeleteKathy- That post about buy or sell was ridiculously biased. The dude sleeps in bama underwear and a wife beater. Arkansas..a buy? Really? They are doing so well in recruiting. Anyways, anyone can post on bleacherreport, so that is the kind of trash you will find.
ReplyDeleteThanks Luv...glad I'm not the only one.
ReplyDeleteI understand exactly where you're coming from. Both of those guys are used in ways today that would appall them if they were around to see.
ReplyDeleteI hate the Saints. I hope they get smoked this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe there was controversy over whether to make MLKjr's birthday a national holiday.
ReplyDeleteehyou, why have you developed this hatred toward the Saints?
ReplyDelete1. As a Falcons fan, they're my main rival.
ReplyDelete2. I got sick of hearing "this team means so much to this city" after Katrina. They're still saying it.
3. New Orleans is a nasty city. Been there twice and felt dirty the whole time.
I didn't realize Cam Newton was 6-6/247. What a hoss!
ReplyDeleteEhyou- I hate Favre, and I hope he gets smacked next week.
ReplyDeleteehyou, very good points!
ReplyDeleteI don't hate Favre, but like I said this weekend, I am so over him. So, therefore, I will rooting for the Saints.
ReplyDeleteTommy Trott - the best Auburn pass catching tight end since Lorenzo Diamond ...
ReplyDeleteThat's not really fair API.....to Mr. Diamond.
ReplyDeleteI love that Fisher's kid will be attending Auburn. That's got to be some sort of stamp of approval for the AU staff, to pay for his kid to play football at AU.
ReplyDeleteJet Streams ...
ReplyDelete1. Favre, while undoubtedly a talented player, is a self-indulgent jerk. I shall not pull for him.
2. Lane Kiffin probably has recurring yeast infections.
3. Take it easy on Gump native Trott (even if he is a TPS guy). Remember, he was coached by Knox for three years.
4. The Kansas State hoops coach looks like he's gonna kill somebody during a game. He also must be a devoted son because he kept referring to his "mother" during the game.
5. I don't care about Jay. I don't care about Conan. I don't care about Dave. Go away.
(snickers @ #2)
ReplyDeleteJet- You need to complete your Top 10 List.
ReplyDeleteChan Gailey is the new Coach of the Buffalo Bills. That's good news, since Auburn doesn't play them. How that idiot had our number twice pisses me off, but hey, it was just pre-season, so why should I be upset?
ReplyDeleteAwesome move by the Bills...fire one unsuccessful head coach for another...that's how you win in The League.
ReplyDeleteConan's hair is one of the scariest things I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteYeah, those pre-season losses to GT didn't hurt us as they were pre-season, right? We still went on to win all of our SEC games after that, right?
ReplyDeleteSo I am hearng that Ole MIss can only sign 22 this year due to their API that Nutt inherited.
ReplyDeleteInteresting.
WTC- You sure it has nothing to do with the 36 he signed last year? :)
ReplyDeleteAs for Malzahn's statement, I concur with Jet's response to it.
ReplyDeleteOff topic...the other night (and last night) I was watching the UConn women's basketball team. They showed an interview with Auriemma and obviously he and Saban are from the same mold. He said many of the same the same things that Saban has said regarding streaks and championships.
As an Auburn Fan in Georgia, we have a 2 game losing streak to GT and a 4 game losing streak to Georgia. We have to change one of those this season.
ReplyDeleteEddie, I, too enjoyed Jet's list and think he should add to it.
ReplyDeleteLuv- I would say you are dead on about that assessment. The guy is all business. My old roommate and E-Bro's for a short time, used to be the head trainer at UCONN Men's Basketball team and he said that Auriemma was serious all the time and Calhoun was almost the opposite. My old roommate ended up with a nice Championship Ring while there, but always said that Women's basketball was bigger than Men's and a much tougher ticket.
ReplyDeleteAnd when he sees that you are good player, he is extremely tough on you. They were talking about Maya Moore and the fact that she wanted to leave because he is so tough. Her mom wouldn't let her because she went to UConn to become a great player and felt that she wouldn't without Auriemma.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing the success that Summit and Auriemma have had and yet they are completely different coaches in their style and demeanor.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of old coaches, I like Nell Fortner, but I miss Joe Ciampi. Do you think we could hire Joe to coach the men?
Eddie,
ReplyDeleteWe have a few streaks I'd like to see end very soon.
4 in a row to UGA
3 in a row to LSU
2 in a row to Arkansas
2 in a row to Alabama
Four teams on our regular schedule have winning streaks against us that have to stop.
This should be our football intro video this year:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2Xt2yHCgwI
Good morning Hotties.
ReplyDeleteIf we are at 5 or better after signing day I will be happy. I do not beleieve there is much difference between No. 5 through No.1.
Happy Robert E. Lee Day It should still be a holiday.
Martin Luther King had a great cause and moved it forward tremendously.
But he had the morals of an alley tom cat.
Not to start a controversy, but what did Robert E. Lee do?
ReplyDeleteI realize he was a great General, but that constitutes having a national holiday named after him?
ReplyDeleteWar's over. Sherman dropped the big one.
ReplyDeleteRobert E. Lee fought for what he thought at the time was a just cause, by the way which was not slavery, but the right of the southern states to conduct there business without the interference of the Fed. Government.
ReplyDeleteHe had high morals and ideals a southern gentleman of the first order.
Lee's birthday is not a national holiday, but is in several Southern states. In most Southern states, it's been combined with the federal MLK Day.
ReplyDeleteI believe Virginia makes the Friday before MLK Day its Lee Day, giving each their own day.
That is an expensive proposition as it raises the costs of state government by one-half for mission criitical employees such as prison guards, Troopers, mental health, etc., which run 365 days a year. They earn time and a half on holidays.
I'm with Eddie. R.E. Lee Day is something taken out of context by many and meant as an affront to racial harmony. Is this really still an official holiday in some states?
ReplyDeleteLee himself was against slavery, and in time tried to free all his slaves, though he did view slaves as sub-human.
Jet...the Kansas State b-ball coach is oh my god crazy. Guy freaks me out. Has crazy eyes galore. At the end of the game, he said they have another "crazy Big Twelve game" coming up on Saturday. I thought to myself, "Speaking of crazy..."
ReplyDeleteDigger, I mean no respect, but there have been a lot of people throughout history who have fought for just causes. Should we declare holidays for all of them too?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to declare a holiday for myself...oh wait I already have one.
ReplyDeleteThe Beastie Boys fought for their right to party, no day off work for them...yet
ReplyDeleteHarrison!
ReplyDeletehello Luv.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, I thought about you the other day and asked where you'd been, but I got no response.
ReplyDeletethanks for noticing Luv, no one else cares.
ReplyDeleteI went to Hawaii for Christmas, which was awesome. Then work was crazy for a while. Now things are pretty normal again
how many people were off work yesterday for lee or king day. I was not
ReplyDeleteHawaii is awesome. I went there for a week during my senior year in high school. We stayed on the main island of Oahu. I have been wanting to go back ever since.
ReplyDeleteOnly people that work for banks or the government, bigdaddy.
ReplyDeleteGot to love a gov. job
ReplyDeleteI just found out today that I'm actually allowed to take a vacation. But I still have to work pretty much every holiday.
ReplyDeleteCoca-Cola was off yesterday. We're neither bank nor government.
ReplyDeleteWe stayed in Oahu and Maui. Maui is the prettiest place I have ever been. I'd love to go back, but that trip ain't cheap
ReplyDeleteSeanzie, thanks for the correction! I thought it was just a government and bank - and school, forgot school- thing.
ReplyDeleteI have heard that about Maui. We lucked up. The trip was through my high school and we got the whole trip - airfare, two meals a day and all the things we did - for $650. Even though it was over 20 years ago, I still thought it was a good deal.
ReplyDeleteI think they just pick a day early in the year to give us off. The next company holiday is Memorial Day. That is a long way from today.
ReplyDeleteI've been to Maui and Oahu. More to do on Oahu, Maui is nicer...both aren't cheap.
ReplyDeleteThe wife and I ran through about 1,200 bucks in a week. This does not include airfare nor lodging.
The farthest west I've ever been is Arkansas. It wasn't beautiful at all. Hawaii sounds much nicer.
ReplyDeleteWe have a "Founder's Day", although we still have to work that day. Our next holiday is Easter. So I get to take Sunday off, just like every other Sunday this year.
ReplyDeleteLOL, mrtommyd!
ReplyDeleteBTW, how did you like The Intercontinental in Tampa?
WTC, People are saying that Mack isn't going to visit and it finished with recruting, but he hasn't said that to anyone connected to Auburn. I think he is just trying to shut up the USCe faithful. I think he is ours come signing day. Like I said yesterday we finish in the top 3 in recruiting and begin a series of wins of all kinds against the walmartians.
ReplyDeleteMy employer was closed yesterday but I still worked over 6 hours throughout the day/night. Of course, I worked some over the weekend too. But I'm just dedicated like that. Well, that and hospitals go down if I don't pull off what I have to pull off.
ReplyDeleteI've been to The Big Island of Hawaii, Oahu and Kauai (too lazy to verify spelling). The whole trip was incredible but I don't feel a need to go back to The Big Island or Oahu. We will revisit Kauai possibly within the next 12 months.
I'd like to go run down some ice dealers with my man Dogg. That would be sweet.
ReplyDeleteThornton says Auburn panicked and that turned him off. Yeah, right - Auburn will have a lousy recruiting year because we don't get him. When asked to define the "panic" it was that Auburn told him that we needed a decision now or we were going to move on. Yessir that's panic! lol
ReplyDeleteDo I want to give holidays for all that have fought in just battles, not hardly, but to take one away from Robert E. Lee to honor Martin Luther King is wrong. As stated above Lee's was never a national holiday and it probably shouldn't have been
ReplyDeletebut why change the States holiday to a national holiday for King.
I hate the way history books have been modified over the years to suit the eggheads in education.
I promise that is my last word on the this subject.
ReplyDeleteGo Chizik & Co finish BIG in recruiting.
Its nice to be in a position to tell someone you need an answer or you will move on.
ReplyDeleteI've been to the big island, Kauai, and Maui. Kauai is my fav - most natural. Maui was expensive and resort-oriented. Kaanapali is an affordable area of Maui, but the properties are older. I was at the big island on business - nuff said.
ReplyDeleteNever been to Maui or any of the i's but I have been to Jamaica and it was awesome. Plus it was all inclusive.
ReplyDeleteThe Intercontinental, LUV, was wooooonderful. Wifey and I had a fantastic time there for that long weekend!! I hope your room was just as excellent as ours.
ReplyDeleteIN THE NAME OF LOVE! WHAT MORE IN THE NAME OF LOVE?!
ReplyDeleteatta girl Bono-Jan Terri!
ReplyDeleteCH=B, hey no avatar stealing! Although, showing that one multiple times is forgivable.
ReplyDeleteOn the Hawaii front, I vote Kauai!
sorry Scott I didn't recall seeing it. I will find another.
ReplyDeleteHere is the final reason Newton Chose Auburn.
http://mrsec.com/story/msu-recruiting-weekend-includes-visit-to-strip-club
Georgia state employees get a Confederate Memorial holiday. Those civil war dead folk are many generations old and only a few folks I know have any idea who or if any of their relatives died in that war. I say it is time to stop that holiday.
ReplyDeleteMy Virginia ancestors go back to pre-civil war times. I know of land/monies lost because of that war, but I don't know names, who died or much of anything else that happened. I'm told that there is some cool stuff to be proud of, but I don't care. I didn't do any of that stuff and never knew anyone that even knew those ancestors. Those are just names on a family tree. I care about today and the ancestors I've known personally.
National Memorial Day is certainly worth honoring and I've known several that died for our country.
Oh my gosh. Somebody give me some eye bleach, quick.
ReplyDeleteThat was just wrong man.
Norm needs to show up and flip this thing, we are close.
ReplyDeleteehyou,
ReplyDeleteI opened it here at work and was blinded and thankful nobody else saw it.
In the interest of time
ReplyDeleteSince I'm about to get on another concall
ReplyDeleteIf you'll please allow me
ReplyDeleteI'd like to go on and get this finished
ReplyDeleteSo with that said
ReplyDelete
