nixtosanders94 2,180 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I usually advocate for more time for a coach but this feels like it had to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sevenlee36 1,654 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Well if Gus doesn’t win 2 of the remaining 3 he might be finally going home to Arky. I think they will work something out on that buyout. Not that I want that, because they will have to drag me off the Gus Bus when Auburn repos it.

Dude had to revamp the entire roster from the Big 10 team Brett tried to build...IMO he should have been given more time..never got his type of players in there.

TigerTale 357 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Well...beating UGA and UAT is now inevitable so Gus can use the Arkansas vacancy to take advantage of us again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t disagree. I think a coach generally needs at least three years but this seemed an especially bad fit from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were not just putting a bad team on the field they were putting an embarrassing team on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They fired Jack Crow ON THE FILED after the first game of the year (1992). USC fired Lame in the airport and he had to find his own way home I understand. But I did not see this as #2 but then again, that game was so bad I guess they figured there was anything to lose by doing it now. Problem I see for Arky and FSU is that unless you hire an unemployed coach or someone's coordinator, you have to wait until the end of the season to get an experienced coach with any kind of resume'.

But if he were smart he would jump at it if coaching in the SEC is in his best interest. I suspect the money outweighs that. My assumption is he will eventually get fired, take his pay day and become an analyst for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win4AU 4,052 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 As if Auburn didn’t need any distractions this week. Arkansas would definitely offer Gus again. Who can they realistically get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
