Harsinsquandered the losses away with poor coaching, and he continued to squander a ton of talent to the portal, that he never replenished. So many people (prior to the Penn State disaster at home) were so quick to point out: oh, oh, oh if Bo didn’t get hurt, Harsin would have only lost like three games last year. Really? Well I thought Gus didn’t leave him the talent to do that? Facts are Gus's abysmal record on the road in the SEC, which seems to be looked over in your posts. Also, games against equivalent national programs over his time at Auburn. His "Offensive" magic had disappeared. UCF will find out soon enough. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funniest part is you continuing to try and pivot the conversation back to CBH when it had nothing to do with him in the first place. Let's recap... Thurston said that Gus's team could consistently line up and run the ball. I commented that we haven't been able to since 2017, when the OL recruiting started to suffer. You, then take offense to me stating a verifiable fact and spend multiple post trying to twist my words into some sort of attack against Gus as if it had anything to do with the conversation. Fact is you're so hung up on trying to get the bulge on me that you end up looking sad and petty. Good luck with that. I haven’t been around long but as a newbie its easy to see this 24 guy and his buddy Mike are just stuck in Gus’s unending, weird psychological hold he had on half our fan base. God bless you for continuing to fight the good fight with those two but you may as well speak to your living room wall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus isn’t Daboo or Kirby but he finished well (After losing his starting quarterback and running back do to injuries) then beat UF in their bowl game. Also finished with the highest rated recruiting class in the history of Central Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we still had an experienced QB, an elite running back, and a deep, talented tight end room (which has still been underutilized despite promises). The line was and still is a disaster. The receivers were too. But if CBH had plugged a few holes with the portal OL, we might could have had a *decent* offense by year 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it was something of a rebuild. But you're exactly right that Harsin whiffed at every opportunity to improve the talent. The right coach would have had the O in better shape in year 2. Despite personnel, what's most baffling to me is the usage of the few good players he does have. Tank had 9 carries against Penn State! That's criminal. Seriously, a child would know to give the ball to your best player. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 0fer in February really hurt both perception and reality 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
