Hand Aranda a blank check for OL and QB coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've played no one yet, their best wins are Nebraska and Maryland. If they go out and beat Penn State this weekend I'll certainly be willing to reconsider that stance. My biggest concern is retaining the defensive staff. Even though we will hit a regression next year due to the talent vacuum, if we can keep fielding a strong defense, that would certainly help the offensive transition. But at the same time, the last thing I want to is handcuff a new head coach. Truly a frustrating situation we find ourselves in... Fair point about Minny, but man they look much improved from where they were in September. It's hard not to be impressed at 5-0 in the Big10 considering how irrelevant they've been for a half century. Their last Big 10 championship was in 1967!

Especially at his age with his coaching experiences (the good and the bad) I don't think he has an illusions of grandeur. I would be really fascinated to see Gus gone tomorrow and see how interim Steele would do and let young buck Dillingham call the plays however the hell he feels like it.

WalkingCarpet 1,379 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Rhule, Fleck, Fickell, Venables, Satterfield, Campbell. Surely we can get one to say yes.

mom2kid 216 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Cristobal. Saban coaching tree, knows SEC, strong recruiter, and look at the resumes of staff he has put together at Oregon. SEC is different and he understands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win4AU 4,052 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Rhuele or Clark for me. Preferably a coach that runs the same type offense except well. It’d be a shame to spend two years transitioning to pro style and waste the talent we already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanford is really struggling this year. That is all I got off the top of my head. Even Harbaugh stubborn ass has moved to more of a conventional spread the last 2 years. I do not think we have to worry about that. THANK GOD no one runs a truly similar offense as Gus. He is one of the very very few who still prefers to be extremely run heavy.

Ryan Sanders 123 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Rhett Lashlee? Seriously? I’d love to stay away from Malzahn’s formers. Bill Clark.. hard to say exactly if he’d succeed in the SEC, but he’s definitely attractive. If Malzahn wasn’t so stubborn, he could hire a great OC and probably do well. But I’m ready to see him gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude is entertaining but those Air Raid offenses tend to flounder mightily when going up against the SEC Totally agree! The UW game last year was similar to Auburn's UT debacle last year with the opposing coach saying how easy & predictable the WSU offense was to defend. Goes along with the love for Jimbo & Urban. I get that Urban is actually a great coach & recruiter but if he comes to Auburn and napoleon doesn't retire right away, once he's lost a game or two to bammer and/or GA he'll suddenly need to retire (again) due to a hang-nail. ....at least until the Notre Dame job comes open when they're finally tired of Brian Kelly. As for Jimbo? I just feel he caught lightning as the ACC was (is) nothing and he was able to ride Jameis but he left them a dumpster fire and aTm seems to be finding out about that now. I mean, since he's joined the SEC he's Oh & 2 vs Gus for Pete's sake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
