Simply put. He believed in his way. 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.

That's a good point about his roots. 

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.

He was TOLD what it implied and was TOLD to walk it back.

Exactly why I don’t believe in all of this nonsense. I truly believe Gus was/is completely amazed he got fired after last season.

It's what made the last little while even more frustrating. The basic, most common concept/adjustment/utilization were just non-existent.

3 of them starred in NFL, and the most productive never saw the field lol.  Crazy that we had Brandon Jacobs and no room for him.
