It’s really exciting news. Should help make the defense a very good unit next year.

Meh

Yep getting invited to a bowl game used to be a big deal to players and fans. The playoff has killed bowl games.

After a team loses 2 games should all players just quit for the season since their playoff chances are pretty much over?

I don’t seek out to watch them or any other team unless it’s the Auburn Tigers.

Meh

I’d rather have a guy who has coached in three SEC Championship games, 2 National Title games and has beaten Saban numerous times (assuming Saban can’t be my coach). I probably hate losing worse than BH, that doesn’t necessarily mean I should be head coach but if the money is right ya never know.

TJ is the answer… to get 5 to 7 wins. If we are wanting more we need to find someone else.

In 2017? We were not elite but a respectable OL. Braden Smith Golson Tega Darius James All these guys got some NFL playing time, some may still be in the NFL.

We had a patchwork SEC line, not a top caliber SEC line.

Cause we are trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. Gus recruited gadget players and Harsin is having them run a “pro style “ system. It’ll take a few recruiting cycles to get the players he needs. Look at Rich Rod trying to convert Michigan to a spread offense…. That didn’t work out. Then look how long it took to convert back to a good pro style offense.

Will be a 1-3 round draft pick eventually. Going to be a beast if he keeps healthy. The interior is going to be sured up next year and will allow him to wreak havoc. Mason assembling a nice unit. We need to have the offense on the same level.

I think Gus finally built his perfect staff his final year he was here. They didn’t get a true year to implement their system because of COVID. He finally addressed the biggest issue which was oline recruiting. He addressed it by hiring a reputable OC and OL coach. Offensive linemen didn’t want to play in a high school offense and Chad Morris’s offense, while similar, never had a problem producing NFL talent. The new OL coach hire had several years of coaching in the NFL and was becoming a solid recruiter in college (better than JB). I believe we would have had more star players return like Seth and track star. I don’t think the two DTs leave for Florida which would have gave us quality depth in the interior of the D line. With the SEC down this year it would have been a great opportunity for the team. All that said I think Gus would have had a very solid chance of getting to the SEC championship and even possibly the playoff.

Not a chance we lose 5 in a row under Gus.

Another game Auburn would typically pull out. We are not the same Auburn, lost that edge.
