Yeah, this is gonna happen ($$)…
Multiple sources said new Auburn president Chris Roberts would prefer to hire an AD who has the autonomy and gravitas to run the athletic department and make hires in a more traditional manner, but after the Tigers’ recent public dysfunction, it remains to be seen how that would come together.
Gravitas? Tell me you haven’t been at Auburn long without saying you haven’t been at Auburn long.

Roberts better hire an AD soon because the boosters are about to fire Harsin and hire his replacement.

The ideal AD for Auburn is a fourth-grade special ed teacher with extensive experience handling kids with ADHD and/or other borderline personality disorders. That’s the skill set that’s really needed to keep Auburn’s boosters in line.
But it’ll probably just end up being some member of the good ol’ boy network who agrees to hire Kevin Steele as head coach.

There really isn’t any such thing as a celebrity athletic director, and certainly there isn’t one out there who is respected enough and famous enough to make all of the different warring factions in the Auburn Family (TM) decide to just put down their pitchforks and join together in a group hug around the head coach from Toledo or whoever Auburn’s next coach is. At Auburn, they consider the disfunction to be a feature and not a bug at this point.

The boosters will hire the AD, and he’s going to come from a a venture capital background to help them structure their NIL program. Bruce Pearl said as much in the Senator’s previous post. When he asks for a copy of the NCAA rule book, they’ll say, “No son…you won’t be needing that. Just ask us if you have a question.”

AU boosters have fired coaches, athletic directors, and presidents every way possible except a strong limb on a tall tree and a short road. I’m sure they tarred and feathered someone in the early years. I’m waiting.

The next Auburn AD needs to be a ventriloquist dummy they order off Amazon (Jeff Dunham’s Walter would fit the bill). That way old Yellow Wood and friends can take turns sticking their hands up his backside and making him spout out whatever they deem appropriate. Kind of like they have done for years, but they save the money by not having a LIVE ventriloquist dummy for the AD.
