aucanucktiger 1,789 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Either Morris, McGee or Burns would be good picks that fit IMO but those guys are too solid in their own right to play the Dillingham "pretend-OC" roll. And yes I'm one if the "Malzahn 5🤣" that think Gus needs to be both HC & de facto OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I don’t know. im pretty sure he was told NO on the Freeze hire. He might get the Green light on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie 124 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Silly question(s), but how much would Gus give em the reigns to run the offense? What all would this impact pass route development wise and playcalling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad would have much more imput and freedom. His QB work and recruiting would also be an upgrade too. Gus won’t and isn’t ever going to trust anyone to run his offense at AU. If Chad comes, I have my doubts he will, this will end up like it did with Chip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You ain't going to believe what just happened..." It could also just have been a conversation had several times between friends saying they'd like to work together at some point if the opportunity arose. It does seem like someone was sitting on ready for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abw0004 10,102 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 It has been a while since everyone came together and got this excited for anything Auburn football. I saw a moment of it after the Iron Bowl. Makes my heart just as full as seeing Georgia get throttled by LSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he wasn’t. He had the green light to get Freeze. Gus has had the green light to do what he wants for 3 plus years other than hire little Briles.

Let Chad call the plays or at least have a lot of input and instill his passing concepts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think Gus will trust him for development, scheming, and game planning much more than any of the others. Chad, Hugh, and Art are the only coaches Gus would listen to.

I'll hold my opinion until I see the product on the field in 2020 (the season.... NOT the bowl game). Feels no different than the last few years.....

The one coach that Gus would truly listen to isn’t even mentioned in your post. He just took Dilly back. Why would Chad take the job with Gus for What you mentioned right now? Wait and see what comes open first before you become a Gus yes boy. Makes no sense. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad is a proven OC at a very high level. Come to work for a guy who won’t let you do your job at a high level or not even do the job, call plays?

What legit power 5 school would hire Chad as a HC ? Haha none.
