I'd compare it to these new Star Wars movies. As a huge fan, it was great to see them revive SW, but the new movies are totally out of touch with what made the originals great. It sorta ruins the entire franchise in a way. I still love SW, but I'm now pretty disinterested in it. If the comparison is confusing, that's okay. Just wanted to mention how baaaaaad Episode 7 and 8 are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburnfan91 1,407 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I'll repost who I'd like to get because I think he should be seriously considered. I'd like Mike MicIntyre at Colorado. Imo, he's a Dan Mullen/James Franklin type coach who hasn't had the resources or been at a program to sustain success. He inherited programs at San Jose State and Colorado that were in the dumpster. And he's managed 10 win seasons at both schools. The biggest criteria we need in terms of the next HC is: 1) HC experience at a Power 5 program 2) has some SEC experience Mike McIntyre checks off both of those boxes. He was an assistant at Ole Miss from 1999-2002 under David Cutcliffe. His HC experience has been out West but I think the fact he has some SEC experience would make it easier for him to adjust to coaching in the Southeast. In fact, McIntyre's background was in the Southeast. He went to school in Brentwood, TN and played at Vanderbilt under his father, George McIntyre who was the HC at Vanderbilt. Once his father resigned at Vandy., Mike transferred to Ga. Tech. With McIntyre's background and experience in the Southeast, I don't think it would take him long to build recruiting ties and establish connections. Look at Mark Stoops at Kentucky, he has a similar record to McIntyre's. Colorado is like Kentucky in the PAC 12. It's hard to sustain success when you don't have the resources to recruit with in order to maintain winning. McIntyre has proven he can win but sustaining that kind of success at places like Colorado and Kentucky are difficult. Dan Mullen and James Franklin weren't splash hires when they first started in the SEC. But look at them now, they're 2 of the better coaches in college football and their names are a lot bigger than they were when they first started. I think McIntyre could possibly be the next breakthrough coach if he were to come to Auburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAG 33,976 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Mike leach J/K! but really I just read a report where he sent text messages blasting a referee for missing an obvious targeting penalty. He got to the point where the pac 12 had to admit it. Guy he is definitely unique but I like his fire . Also Washington State has been killing it.

University of Colorado chancellor Phil DiStefano has been suspended 10 days without pay, and football coach Mike MacIntyre and athletic director Rick George both have been reprimanded for mishandling their responses to allegations of domestic abuse against former Buffaloes assistant coach Joe Tumpkin. http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/19618509/colorado-buffaloes-suspend-phil-distefano-reprimand-mike-macintyre-rick-george Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coached there from 2003 - 2013, winning the FCS championship his last 3 years there and Kleiman is "merely" maintaining what was already built. Though I agree with you that Kleiman is doing a great job, many would play the "he's doing it with the previous coach's players" card, etc. I don't think he'll be seriously considered for a P5 job until he keeps it going a couple more years. Heck, Bohl only was able to jump to Wyoming....where he's had 2 okay years but otherwise is struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBiGGiE 2,488 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 My vote is Dantonio. Mostly because he's a decent coach but who may have enough dirt to keep Mark Emmert at bay while we rack up 5 star recruits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't sweep it under the rug. His mistake was going to the athletic director instead of the Title IX coordinator and Office of Institutional Equity and Compliance.
