A Message to the Auburn Family about Auburn Football
The Auburn spirit is part of everything we do – in the classroom and beyond. It includes the spirit we show when we support those who represent us on the playing field.
Later today, Auburn students and the local community will gather to cheer on the football team as they practice. I encourage others to follow their example by coming together and getting behind the young men who wear the orange and blue each fall Saturday.
In the past few weeks, many of you have contacted me, and I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to share your thoughts about the football program. I know your concerns are sincere and heartfelt, and I share many of them. As we do every year, the football program will be evaluated in an objective, thorough and professional process.
For everything there is a time, and now is the time to support. The young men and women – our students – who make up Auburn University are grateful for the dedication of their extended Auburn Family. So am I.
War Eagle!

Well said, Dr. Gogue!
Thank You Dr. Gogue!
Your message is very positive and very true!
Those of us that truly love Auburn bleed Orange & Blue all the year through … regardless of the score on a score board!
Despite the rough season the AU team is experiencing ~ the important issue is that we all stand behind our students, faculty, staff and other AU Families ~ and remember what is truly important ~ keeping the AU Spirit Alive!
War Eagle!
I’d just like to win a game for a change.
This statement is very good and has some dept and wholesomeness to it. As we do every year, the football program will be evaluated in an objective, thorough and professional process.
