But he needs more time as a head coach to make the jump to Power 5 football and navigate the dumpster fire this program has become over the last seven months. I've hated him since then and always will. No matter what size his chain is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the other candidates have the two years you are asking for and they have not done squat but work under someone else or get fired. Why are people scared of Prime Time? Its like taboo or something No one is scared. You're talking about handing the keys to a substantial business to a guy with no experience running one who has just the kind of ego that won't listen to people who could help him. He's also a guy who is on a mission for HBCU's, ever occur to anyone that his mission might trump any money we could throw at him, especially with his net worth? ALL D1 HC jobs are every bit as much politics as they are X's and O's, and that takes more than just personal polish and ability. Been there and lived that movie. They also require business sense. No evidence that he has those abilities, not because of who he is, but because of where he hasn't been to learn. He hasn't been so much as a GA at a D1 program has he? Smart people in roles where they have no experience or background fail at a very high rate. Last of all, how many superstar players in any major sport became great coaches? I've heard many times over the years that star players almost never make great coaches because they never had to worry about that last 0.01% of technique, whereas guys who could barely play at Worthless State NAIA (looking at you, CNS) make great ones because they had to sweat those details to even sniff the field. Journeymen starters down to 4th stringers are the ones who grow into coaches. Deion would make a recruiting splash. Maybe. The odds are immensely against him being a lasting success. The we're right back where we started from. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The we're right back where we started from. Jim Tressel was a D1-AA coach at Youngstown State and had never been a head coach in Division 1 when Ohio State hired him. He came into Ohio State and won a Natty and had a perfect record both in his 2nd season there. Everybody knows how good he was at OSU. So just because Deion hasn't coached at a D1 program doesn't mean he wouldn't be successful here. WDE 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, the Big 10 was rather weak at that time. If Deion comes to Auburn he is going to have to out coach not out talent teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamZero77 1,784 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 With this Auburn/Harsin fiasco on every sports channel, sports radio, sites, etc, you would think Harsin would be in Auburn fighting to keep his job and trying to show everyone why he should still be the coach. Instead, he stayed tucked away on a Mexican vacation during all of this stuff. That is VERY telling because he told ESPN and Chris Low thursday night that he is the right man and will fight for his job and still has the right vision for our program. Then why in the hell wasn't he here fighting?? Why wasn't he joining the 24 fans that protested at Toomers Corner for him to keep his job? Him staying on vacation in Mexico, rather than being at Auburn trying to keep his job, showed me everything I needed to know. The decision was made and he knows he won't be Auburn's coach after tomorrow. Harsin also has Russ Campbell representing him out of Birmingham. Russ represented Bobby Petrino in the past and he is good at what he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because he’s got a set of hangers and refuses to be pushed around by some broke back boosters (or anybody else for that matter) when he knows who he is and knows what he has and hasn’t done. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his replacement will be announced no later than sunday. If Auburn thinks their new hire will be popular amongst the fanbase, then I think its announced sunday because the entire country will be around their TV's getting ready for the Super Bowl and that's the perfect timing for everyone to see our new guy.

If he feels like there's nothing on him and that it's all bs, as he said in his interview, then he's probably enjoying his margaritas with his family. Win/win for him if that's what he thinks.
