Somewhere buried in my computer I have a hilarious screen shot of Auburn's wikipedia page after the '13 Iron Bowl. Someone was quite salty.

I'll see if I can dig it up.

Not much of a track record but a cheap option relatively speaking.

JBoy show talking about it

We don't want Saban. He lost to UAB while at LSU 

Awesome! Post of the day!

Freeze. Checking the thuga and turd sec rant page about our vacancy, comments from both team pages are that Freeze would scare them the most to be AU’s HC. Cristobal, Nappier, and Fickel wouldn’t bother them too much although any would be an improvement.

Please, NO.

Freeze is the easy answer. If we’re playing the squeaky clean card, then it has to be Napier or Campbell. People saying Stoops, Sark, or Meyer are idiots.

What if that Stoops is Mark? He's too expensive, but you can't deny he's overachieved at Kentucky...

Not a bad coach but wouldn’t bring the type of excitement that would justify making this move at this time.

Mark Stoops has a LOSING record as a head coach.

Steele’s record at Baylor if interested..

Sounds like Yella Fella wants Freeze but  pearl clutching fan reaction has made them second guess

Cristobal is option 1A for the other PTB

One has to think Yella Fella likely increases the budget for the Football Facility if he's happy with the choice

Rane deserves to have the facility named after him for probably paying the buyout.

They already tried to hire him, but the SEC wasn't having it. All the other coaches threatened to resign (out of fear of having to face HCWC), and the SEC didn't want the league to implode.

no head coach experience?  What in the world is this writer talking about.

 

And Mario Cristobal has had success wherever he went? Tell that to FIU. Hardly accurate. He has been mediocre at best

 

 

 

Very mediocre. He can't close out games. Like his OL though.

Well I apologize sir I have only been on this Earth for a certain amount of time. I honestly didn't remember him. I do remember hearing about him after you said that. 

I’m probably younger than you are my guy, I was just saying he was one of our better OL in the modern AU era. 5x pro bowler and 3x All Pro IIRC
