Said a lot of our players were upset about firing Gus. If only there was something the players could have done this year to help save his job.

Nice try though. Who is it you think we should go after, again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnTiger4Life 2,225 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 16 minutes ago, Auburn Tiger said: Update from my source (the one who told me on Friday that Gus was definitely let go): Oregon ponied up to retain Cristobal, so he's apparently a not coming to Auburn. Our folks don't want the baggage that comes with Freeze, so they're passing on him. They were seriously considering Chip Lindsey, but he's apparently going through some personal issues, so they are passing on him. Our folks were also considering Steve Sarkisian, but they're apparently passing on him as well. Lane Kiffin is under consideration and so is Mike Gundy. Long story short, my source says that there is no real direction, and there isn't anyone already in place. Source says that this is shaping up to possibly be a bit of a mess. Side note, my source also said that Gouge and Greene both wanted to keep Gus, but the donors flat out told them they would not contribute another dime until Gus was gone. Basically ham-stringed the president and AD to get rid of Gus. Source also said a coach from ND is going to Vandy, so Gus is not. Said Gus is now considering Arizona State. Bro no offense but you said Gus was getting fired after Ellitor had already broke the news lol. And players probably entering the portal is an easy guess if you look at social media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go look at our OL recruiting, and the number of players we put in the NFL early in Gus's tenure. When he came back, he was kind of a different person. He shouldn't have hired him back, and at a minimum should've let him go a year earlier. But this wasn't what my comment was about. My comment was about recruiting. The person I was responding to said Gus is a poor recruiter, specifically calling out 3 positions. I was showing that we had recruited 2 of those pretty well, and that Gus had made a move to improve the recruiting of the third one. This goes back to what I've said several times on here. Recruiting was not the main issue. To some extent, we had a development problem. But mostly, it was game preparation. Our guys showed up too many times unprepared to play, and our game plans going into games were often questionable. Recruiting was a bigger problem than most think. Grimes didn’t like recruiting and Gus knew this and rehired him none of the good OL coaches would give Gus the time of day. Gus signed good classes on the whole but did a poor job of filling his needs. As the head man it’s all on Gus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could care less. People are using FIU as an indicator that Mario was a winner. He was not. The team got worse the longer he was there and he was fired. I am not saying Cristobal can't or wobe a good coach. I am however saying that nothing he did at FIU including the greatest indicator of getting fired shows that he would be. Hell Butch Davis has a significantly better record there. Maybe we should hire him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagle2423 357 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I’m wanting Mario to be the next HC, and I see that he follows some AU players on Twitter. My only question is, “how do we know that he just followed them? Couldn’t he have followed them before during their recruitment?” Twitter doesn’t have a way to see when someone follows somebody else that I know of.

The person I was debating with kept saying we recruited poorly as a whole. My argument was that the poor recruiting was largely just on the OL.
