I am not in the athletic department so I don’t know what he did or did not do. Also I do not know what went down when Harsin was hired, but it probably has something to do with that and the NIL being a disaster. This is an absolute guess on my part. No idea… It's not a black eye unless you want it to be. He wasn't going to renew. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bigbird 60,941 Posted August 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2022 This is not a black eye. This has been coming for a long time and everyone involved knew what the end result was going to be. Heck his home has been on the market for a little while. This is a move that has the potential to be really good. If we can get another that is again removed from the Dye boys then we will move into this century. If not, and we hire someone like Tim Jackson, then we will be behind the Mississippi schools for a while. This is the chance we have to align everything and everyone. 21 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greene certainly hasn't been perfect, but I think he's done a pretty good job overall. I also think he has represented Auburn well. I imagine we will hire some good ole boy, and Auburn will look like Auburn. Then Harsin gets fired after this year (probably for anything less than strong contention for the SEC title), and we hire someone with 'Auburn ties' and the s*** show continues. SMH. Whether it was because of ADAG or not, we’ve had an insane amount of success in the sports that were once auxiliary before him. Best state of the men’s basketball program EVER!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s generally been a good AD. Really seemed on the same page with the students and coaches. I just hope Auburn doesn’t JABA his replacement. This wasn’t the booster’s doing. AG wasn’t fulfilling a lot of his duties to where other people were having to step in and do it for him. Towards the end of his tenure much of his duties were stripped anyways. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, who the hell would know if that's true. That could be a rumor started by someone to discredit Greene.

Yeah, but some of the other stuff he prophesized about Harsin is unsettling if it reveals itself to be true. Makes me a little edgy to say the least.

abw0004 10,332 Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 This may be too soon, but I think current NFL executive and Auburn alumni Michelle McKenna-Doyle would be a great fit. She has expressed interest in the job before and I think her mindset would align really well with Harsin. Good selling point coming from the NFL too. Here is a profile on her: https://harbert.auburn.edu/news/McKenna-Doyle.html 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RunInRed 18,479 Posted August 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2022 I was berated over a year ago for reaffirming Allen’s contract wouldn’t be renewed. I don’t post as much anymore about this kind of stuff because honestly it’s not worth the headache. But now that the news is official, I’m posting not to tell you “I told you so,” but to let you guys know I never had an agenda - I was just sharing what I knew to be solid info. You probably also ought to consider this your warning shot on what I previously posted about Harsin. 23 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy has been both right and wrong like any other insider. This time he was just right, so he is quick to say I told you so. When they are wrong, they aren't around hence the majority of people who claimed CBH would get fired earlier in the year. Show up right or wrong to garner anything from me.

texaswde 8 Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Great to see him gone! Hopefully the new hire will sweep out Marci as well. He’s another former ND athlete to exit an athletic directorship job & everybody wins! 😊🐅👏 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBH knows what he is up against and he is the guy is willing to face it. The only way to beat a good ole boy system is to have success. That is not just at Auburn that's anywhere. What did Stephen Jackson say? " I make love to pressure." Lol 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
