I'm not "pro Harsin" or "anti Harsin" or an apologist or anything. I'm as dumbfounded and fed up with this BS as everyone else.  But if it really ends up being the case that Davis couldn't hike his skirt up and was scared of doing what he was hired to do, I'm not totally sure Harsin is to blame for that. Hard to say Harsin didn't adequately prepare him for what was to come, Davis went through the process as a player, he should know enough about what recruiting entails to realize the grind that was coming his way. If he wasn't man enough for it then he never should have accepted the job. Screw him.

That said, I wonder who we will hire as our HC for 2023?

Harsin hired Davis in December.  His nfl coach and star QB gave him rave reviews. 
 

this is on Davis. Over 1 month later after he starts to work in his new job he realizes for whatever reasons he doesn’t want to go this direction. 
 

that’s just a young coach still not knowing where he is headed. That’s all. 
 

im just glad it didn’t come after spring practice. 
 

this is manageable.

It might be. Just have to find an OC now. This is all so bizarre.

Cool looks like a nice layout

It’s beautiful. Fairways are friendly for the most part and the greens are really challenging. Have to be on the right level of the green to have any chance of holing a putt. Can’t really be above the hole with any pin location.

This embarrassment for our football program has got to stop.  It is to the point where we are desensitized right now when we see another player is transferring or assistant coach quitting.

Not true, we have been embarrassing ourselves for years.

That’s freeze’s fault not Auburns. 
 

his transgressions made it harder to go to him.

Right? I begged for Freeze before this hire. I got laughed at and facepalmed. I really wanted Freeze or Kiffin. I felt like they were about as good of a coach as we were capable of hiring. We needed a hire that fired people and recruits up. We did not get that.

Oh whatever. So sick of that. Go after the best option. Same crap happen with CKS.

Ok friend. If you’re going to come at me directly with generalized assumptions about where my head is then please understand that I’m going to respond. In this case my response was mature and honest with the situation and contained no personal attack directed toward you.
I responded with a open ended question and also identified that IF or when the facts unfold neither would reflect positively on the situation. There is no browbeating happening in this exchange and sorry if you felt as such. 

This is a message board.  I would expect a response.  Glad you're doing that vs some on here who just give a negative reaction and too scared to post an opinion.

It's already a done deal tho.  It's happened.  Mental Health related issues are the only thing that could absolve Harsin and I hope that not the case.  He's hired 2 guys who quit on him in weeks (Rocker/Davis).  He's hired another that he had to fire mid season, then 2 more top Coaches that he had to fire & one quit on him (Bobo/Mason).

There is a really really really bad pattern of Harsin making bad personnel decisions.

It's funny on the recruiting board ppl are lamenting why Auburn is never a dream school for kids.

I mean, just look at us?  Look at how bad we fumble, implode, destroy ourselves.  In the last 20 years we have just as many "top" years as any school no named Bama.  04, 05-07 "good run", 2010 then 2013.  2017 was good too.

But the problem we have is the other 15 years are horrendous embarrassment that wipes away any good done.

Freeze is just a really really really really really really horrible person.  It goes way behind him cheating on his wife.  Bruce compared lying to the NCAA over a cookout vs Freeze is a wide gap.

I get your point, but no one is touching him outside Liberty

We really are our worst enemy in terms of football the last decade or so. NCAAB team seems to be turning the corner.

Well the last couple of coaches seemingly are genuine people. Let's keep that going.

Is Freeze really that great of an option? His highlights were one 9 win season and one 10 win season at Ole Miss but he never reached an SEC championship. He won 5 games in his last season. He was then fired for calling escort services from his school phone and for having major NCAA violations.  

If he had Urban Meyer's win history then maybe but for one 10 win season in five years and that was because he bought several top 5 star players? Not worth it to me. 

Bruce Pearl had kids over to a cookout and lied about it. That should not have been a violation in the first place.

No doubt.  Board destroyed any and all motivation Tubs had.  He quit when Saban came in.  Gene turned into a frantic lunatic scared of his own shadow and destroyed the program after winning a Natty.  Gus took the most good will anyone could build in year 1, never changed his offense, wouldn't listen to anyone, but was BFFs with the big money they couldn't hold back their money boners after he beat Bama & UGA during a 5 loss season and ultimately cost us 20-30 million in buyouts.

And now we have rumors that the PTB hates Harsin and will not give him any of their money for NIL.  Great work everyone.  Well played Auburn.

Well Harsin is apparently a complete a**hole, so maybe we tried something different this time.  🤣

SEC wasn't letting us hire Freeze at that time regardless.
