I'm just curious what makes him so. What has he done to get the reputation?

He's a bold hire IMO, whether or not he's a good one remains to be seen. His CV isn't very deep, but what depth there is happens to be well respected by his peers. Let's see how he does on the big stage.

He and White were the ones in charge at Ole Miss when #thenetwork was being built. The building and maintaining of the ramps for involving boosters in the recruiting process were started under their watch. That is not a wild theory. If building that kind of operation doesn't catch Lowder's eye, nothing will.

Put “is it possible” before every sentence and a question mark afterward and we have a History channel special.

Inside Auburn’s Secret Effort to Advance an Athlete-Friendly Curriculum


More evidence of Auburn's commitment to education--if by "commitment to education" you mean "commitment to keeping athletes eligible."

The new batch of data was unambiguous. Half of the students in one major were athletes. One in three black players on Auburn’s football team was enrolled in the program.

Rather than question how this might have happened, the university’s provost instead offered a plan: Create more programs like it.

The way they handled the end of their 2010 footaball season tells you all you need to know...

And anyone who tells you it stopped with the end of Lowder's tenure on the board of trustees is just disingenuous.


There’s a war between Auburn whistleblower’s dept & dean who tried to shut him up. 1 prof posted photos of Dean & AD (Just below Jared) alongside Stalin & Kim Jong-un. http://

What you want to bet the dean's wife ends up as the director of some state affiliated non-profit making about $500k/yr?

I seriously doubt that the barn ever wins another one in Lowder's lifetime. (One every 53 years, so 45 more to go?)

How is this for irony. Three of the four teams in the CFP played Auburn. Auburn beat two of those. Guess who go left out. :cool2: Sweet.:biggrin2: Bama beat two of the teams who beat Auburn.

Auburn had a good team this year but kinda caught UGA and Bama at the right time. UGA hadn't really been forced to put the game in Fromm's hands for most of the season. This was kinda like our 2011 LSU game. UGA got forced into winning the game with a first year starter and the plan was not well conceived to do so. They just flat out caught Alabama limping to the finish line. I don't think they'd beat either team on the road despite those issues. Perfect storm for Auburn: had great run game and DL...good combo to pair with a loud crowd.

You won the national championship. The loss to Auburn probably helped get you there. Sometimes a loss is a lot more than a loss. Auburn has to live with the fact that they actually helped you win a championship.
