Should everyone have crapped on him too? Didn urban beat abalama in a bowl the year he left? Pretty big difference vs losing a las Vegas bowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgrogan21 6,198 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I'll reserve judgement until we figure out the coaches. If he is allowed to hire his own staff then I'm liking it a lot more. If he's just another "yes" man then it's gonna be a long couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what else is new. We are destined to lose to them recruiting forever. So let’s just keep on being Auburn. my thoughts exactly. Do we have the worst/least heavy hitting coach in the SEC now?

im4aual 486 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 My last year at Auburn, we were hiring a new coach and we were certain that we were getting Vince Dooley, then it was going to be Jackie Sherrill from Pitt, then Dan Reeves from the Dallas Cowboys. We ended up with a coach who had just gone 6-5 at Wyoming. Worked out pretty well, the field is named after him. Give this guy a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auskip07 930 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Can't fault him for not knowing him. Auburn doesn't do splash hires well so this was expected. He is a proven HC and winner based on his coaching past. Let's see what he can do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muxi87 148 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 My list was Kiffin, Mario, Napier. After that I'm game with this dude. Gotta see who he surrounds himself with to recruit though. Zero ties to the area usually doesn't get it done recruiting in the SEC. He needs to make a "Dell McGee type hire" ASAP. And by ASAP, I'm talking in the next 24 hours. I have this feeling we have some fragile current players in addition to the pretty decent number of open spots we have in this year’s recruiting class.
