AUatHeart 624 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I just need to know what Tank thinks about him. That’s one player I don’t want to see leave us early, unless it’s to the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next 2 years will probably be a little rough. Perhaps not, defense should still be good, offense has potential that was not used. Scoring TDs more often often while in the red zone will help tremendously, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsin is a guy with clearly NO ties to our program, and not beholden to any booster. Know what other hire fit that bill? Bruce Pearl. I genuinely do believe this is a good hire. A SNEAKY good hire. But even if you don't agree, you can at least take solace in the fact that our voices were heard, and the ptb appear to have been humbled. Maybe things are changing for the better in the power circles. Is that.... is that really how it's seen by others? My first thought was, this dude is obviously confident in his abilities and willing to bet on himself to get an SEC gig. So if he had to agree to ridiculous PTB terms X, Y, and Z he will, because he believes he can overcome the hamstringing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewzums343 76 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 To all of you on here, I genuinely want to know. Why do.you think he's a good hire? He's coming from the mountain west. That does not equal SEC success. What makes you think he's any better than malzahn was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodagetta 3 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Just my impression of Harsin: He is an alpha. He may keep a few on the staff, but will bring in some of his own choices as well. And most importantly, will not take $#!+ from the PTB's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely will give him a wake up call just looking at his schedule next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potatooooooes!! 1,375 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I’m not super excited about him, but cautiously optimistic. If he can bring in who he wants that will help. I’ll definitely give him a chance. He’s definitely better than Steele, and a 69-19 record or whatever is not too shabby, I don’t care what conference you’re in. It could have been waaaay worse. And no matter what, firing Gus was definitely the right thing to do. Even if he fails miserably, taking a risk for success is always better than settling for mediocrity because you fear the unknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsin will weed them out through retirement and/or attrition (they find a job elsewhere). Otherwise, it is clear as sunshine this guy is an alpha male. He is energetic, outspoken. Several situations happened this fall that got him in the mode to seek greener pastures and a bigger challenge. I agree. There are advantages to keeping some. Steele may be damaged goods whether the rumors are true or not. and I am not saying I want steele. BUT ... Imagine you very good at your job but you are accused of a "crime" you did not commit. Twitter and the media ran with the story that you are guilty. The whole world thinks you are guilty except for the very few who know the truth. Your new boss steps in, researches the situation and learns that you are innocent of that crime. He takes a chance on you. How loyal would you be?

To me that is more important than recruiting number of stars. Win and the recruits will come. Exactly. We have been whipped (at least once per year) under Gus by teams that had far less talent. And we've had a ton of talented guys used for blocking dummies and bench warmers. Forget the stars and give me a dadgum football coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURealist 2,185 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Not a splash hire, but I'm gonna give the man 5 years to see what he can do. Welcome to the team, Coach Harsin, and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgrogan21 6,198 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Well, this has been a fun night but I have to be up at 5 AM so it's time for me to unwind from social media/internet. The last thing I'll say before I leave for the night is: THIS IS THE MOST EXCITED I'VE BEEN FOR AUBURN FOOTBALL IN ABOUT 4 YEARS!!!!!!! WAR EAGLE!

I suppose Tank could have been a big BSU fan and followed them closely. Like most of us, he has probably just saw a BSU game here and there.
