Everything seems to be so reactive with our group. How do we know he turned down aTm? May have never got an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care who it is. I liked that aggressiveness. If Mason wasn't the architect for that then let him go to Okie State. I've never heard the rumor that Mason wasn't the DC for the Iron Bowl. That seems like some revisionist history spin to make everyone feel better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The national media hits Auburn so much who knows? Just saw a report from a Tulsa newspaper that Mason was on Stillwater last week. He is as good as gone. If he was all AU, he should be on the road recruiting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laughed it off until I watched the IB. Still probably not true, but has had me thinking since then Dumb stuff like this is why if he does leave we get what we deserve 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw schemes in the IB we hadn't seen all year All I know that was hands down best defensive performance all year & I agree.

I don’t remember him being mentioned a lot on the recruiting front. Not saying he didn’t have a big impact, I just don’t remember hearing his specific impact as much as I expected. I was under the assumption that most of the defensive players came because of him, but could be wrong. Got some great Juco players and built depth with transfers. Also he was all over the country recruiting according to photos by Auburn's social media. Maybe he wasn't a factor, I just assumed he was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aucanucktiger 1,791 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 We want to attract upwardly mobile assistants and should understand when they leave AU for BETTER situations, but Ok State aint that. Part of Harsins job is to convince key players to stay (like he did with Tank) and keep coaches he wants from jumping ship for lateral (at best) moves.

DyeCampAlum 335 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I think lots of people don't get how defense has changed. What Georgia did this year is just off the map. A few years back I got to talk with a G5 defensive coordinator. You basically don't try to shut down teams anymore. You have to disrupt them: sacks, turnovers, penalties, and so on. And you know you're gonna give up points. 40 total PPG was average in 2000. That would have been 58 or 60 last year, based on what teams scored. That number is consistent with the past few years. The other thing is, Auburn's offense has had trouble against good defenses for several years largely due to marginal OL and sketchy QB play. That puts enormous pressure on a defense, which will break down. The A&M game would be a prime example, but you could add State, Carolina, and Alabama to the list. I think Mason is doing a terrific job, and that's why he's desirable. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course the one game he doesn’t coach is our best defensive game, yet other schools have rumored to show interest in him.
