Tim Jackson has had ties in the past to Eastman & Beaudine, the executive search firm hired to assist in the AD search." It would be an interesting hire, but I'm not sure I'm a fan. He basically spent two decades around the Auburn program before getting let go in the Chizik push out. Given some of the things that happened (i.e. the possible bribing of Cam Newton) to come there, how can we be sure we can trust a guy like this?

Dangling Nutt in front of our face will only cause us to go cross-eyed with confusion. At the end of the day, dangling Nutt will only leave a bad taste in our mouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
