It just talks about Jeff Whitehead as Senior Associate Athletic Director for Compliance. https://www.al.com/auburn/2022/10/auburn-hires-jeff-whitehead-as-senior-associate-athletic-director-for-compliance.html 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know too much about McGlynn, but it seems he may not be the best person for the job, which means if he is made the new AD, isn’t that par for AU? Hard to expect much better from this University anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aucom96 1,652 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 That would certainly indicate certain boosters are holding sway…and we can prepare for (ironically) a waste like Freeze to soon be brought in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think Freeze would really come in if this dude is the freaking AD? That literally makes no sense. He is the anti-freeze. If anything it will be Grimes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThurstontheWelshCorgi 576 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 If theres one thing i know it is that no matter whom the ad at auburn is, he will be met with immediate disapproval and distain. They could hire jesus christ himself and people would say it is terrible. Perhaps thats a bad analogy but still.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr82b4au 5,576 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Sigh. Nowhere in this does it say Rich is the permanent AD. again- it may happen, but also the new guy they hired today worked for the current Utah State AD back in the day. And he is #1 on the list for New AD. Step away from your jump to conclusions mat for a little while hahaha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's all about love and forgiveness and that mushy stuff. It's not a good look for a football game to have guys turning the other cheek. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoALtiger 3,963 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Does not say Rich is to be AD at all. Now that may end up being true but is not the case right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyehardfanAU 2,117 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Hopefully this means McGlynn is gone after the new AD is hired but then I realize this is probably JABA. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aucanucktiger 1,891 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 This is consistent. After the media's Auburn-bashing media blather when Pearl was hired, the BOT apparently embarked on a worthy mission to change Auburn's unfair reputation (based on lazy media research) as a cheating institution. (The last time AU football ran afoul of the NCAA was 1992 - EXTRAORDINARY for a top tier program). BOT hired squeeky clean Harsin when nobody had HEARD of NIL so he unfortunately spent Fall of '21 rejecting NIL's counterintuitive "buying players is legal now" premise (exit his depth players and up & commer Mason). McGlyn apparently believes compliance & winning formulas are mutually exclusive and his, er, promotion is just a continuation of the BOT's uphill "Auburn reputation" crusade against the Thalmels, Fordes & ESPNs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
