(Updated): Al Pogue - new DB coach

[Auburn2Eugene 2,317]

Also pretty sure I saw someone say on here that Joe Witt Jr was offered the DC job or was considered for the DC position at some point and he wasnt interested. 

But sure he will come be a DB coach here...

 

I mean while we are at it why dont we swing for the fences and go after Nick Saban, Jeremy Pruitt, or Kirby Smart? I heard they were pretty good secondary coaches.

Or we could go out on a limb and go after

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tommy Thigpen. I dont think he has been suggested

Though he may not won't to come back to Auburn, Dell McGee is my top pick.

I've been wrong before, but I surely thought Gus would have named a new DB coach by this time.

Here's my top 4 to pick from. Tommy Thigpen, Dell McGee, Gene Chizik and Joe Whitt Jr.

I don't think Gene Chizik will ever coach for Auburn again.

How old is he?

Barry Gibbs is about 60 right?   Maybe 65.

 

 

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I was being a little sarcastic. But the guy can coach and evaluate talent.

It's not for lack of trying. Looks like he's holding a job fair.

I figured. JB could coach good to idk how good he was at evaluating talent because he didn’t seem to land any recruits.

We are saving the Nick Saban hire for when our kicking coach position opens up.

Lolley is an old school beast. One of the best talent evaluators Auburn has ever had. He's been up in the CFL. I don't know how rusty his SEC skills are or not. 

[aubiefifty 16,737]

does anyone know why the new db hire is taking so long? thanx

[auburntiger1987 759]

Bet its taking so long because we're going after an NFL Coach.....
