A lot of coaches are stubborn and stand by their philosophy, systems, etc. I have no problem with it personally, just be prepared for what happens when your philosophy and systems get you canned. He stood by it and it cost him one of the best jobs in the country, albeit he walked away with a nice check. I am sure Gus will look back on his Auburn career and ponder what could have been if I would have done this or that. Honestly I highly doubt that. IMO , he has that much of an EGO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really read too much into that stuff, or even think about it. For me it's all about what he did to evolve and get better, which was very little. It's certainly up for debate as to whether that indicates any comfort with losing. I have my thoughts, but I'm certainly not qualified to defend them in a debate. This is one of those moments where I'm just glad we're not saying these things about our current coach anymore. Now THAT I totally agree with on your last statement.!! It was time to go, and maybe 2 years late... And as far as complacent, his comment about 'solid year' ,definitely was the wrong thing to say at a precarious time in his current tenure at Auburn. He knows what it implied and walked it back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly believe Gus was/is completely amazed he got fired after last season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
