It would follow Gus’ trend for offensive coaching hires. It’s sad that we think this and I hope Gus will hire someone else, but he hasn’t spend a whole lot of time finding offensive coaches. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearing or reading where? But hoping AU does not even give serous thought to this. We don't need a guy with his baggage....JMO. Plus, if we make some offensive changes I'm hoping we don't get another guy who is an old friend of Gus. Need a little diversity and freshness to the offense and not just a recycled version of what we are running now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnEagle79 2,163 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 The PTB need to dictate that we hire a new OC. They also need to dictate that Freeze is that OC. They then need to dictate that he runs his own offense. Gus can try his hand at rehabbing coaches too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburn Kev 1,653 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Kendall Briles is who Auburn needs as OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caleb1633 1,418 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 It doesn't matter who our OC is. If Gus won't give them full control of the offense, we're gonna be scratching our heads much the same every year wondering why the offense looks the exact same.

tbone4jc 2,238 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 My take on CGM and who he hires. CGM hires young, inexperienced OC's and other coaches because someone gave him a chance. He did this with the DC until he hired Will Muschamp, and now Kevin Steele. He has a heart for giving people a hand up, see Rhette Lashlee, Kodi Burns, Chip Lindsey and Travis Williams. I believe he will hire a experienced OC this summer. The main reason why I havent given up on CGM is because the players still believe on him, that speaks volumes over and any fan, insider or not. Persecute me, but I am a grown man and have my own perspective, so I may see things other than the cup being half empty all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker 2,457 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I will say this....we would be wise to hire an upcoming OC who could survive a regime change vs. someone like Freeze who would be let go during a regime change. That way we could have stability with recruiting and who knows, maybe be retained by a new coach. Just thinking long term. Briles would be ideal. Maybe Litrell from UNT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,781 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 The SEC wouldn’t even let Freeze be an analyst at Bammer. I don’t think they would Gus hire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
provibe 261 Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 The point of my question was that we probably shouldn't even be discussing getting HF when the SEC will most likely not even allow that to happen. I do have another question for those in the know. Who actually called the offensive plays in the 4th quarter of this game, some have said that Gus took over the play calling, but I am wondering if he finally turned it over to Chip?

Bringing him in would be a horrible decision and not one thing would change. People need to realize that changing the OC in this program isn't going to change anything. Until Malzahn is gone, this offense is going to look just like what we have seen the last 3 years regardless of who the OC is. I hope the SEC says no and I hope Auburn is smart enough to say NO and stay away from that. I don't want Freeze anywhere near Auburn. He's in Auburn often........he daughter goes to Auburn.....

WarDamnEagleWDE 12,737 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 If Gus is back next year Freeze will be the OC. Unless there is some silly bidding war for Freeze. Freeze can be a assistant or coordinator in the SEC next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMO but it was probably Chip all the way.. Just about every HC who calls his own plays has a play card with plays and situations......which is pretty complicated stuff I understand. ..never saw Gus look at a play sheet and don't think he is able to do that from memory.

That first run heavy drive against UT had Gus written all over it. UT wasn’t a lack of offense as much as the defense getting exposed. There have been certain tell tell play calling that weren’t present in the first half of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
