What about Ron Robert’s?

I hear it’s going to be a game-time decision.

Would Derek Mason come back? 

If we wait much longer Ellis may not be available…

I think if we act fast and move swiftly there is still a chance to land Ellis. 

Is Ellis Johnson available to coach the defense?

So he and Kelly will be co-DC?

Kelly will not be DC

Thank goodness 

We don’t want Kelly as the main DC

Where is Chad Morris these days?

If he's just going to promote Kent Austin, would he have done it today?

I was thinking of this. I do think a quick hire after a fire doesn’t look good. I think even if they know who it’ll be already they probably will wait atleast a day or so until they announce the new hire. 

Brennan Marion from UNLV was a name floating on the internet. Seems he’d be a great choice.

Gus was a great OC. Above average HC.

Please hire Gus!!! (Kidding, kidding)

Since Cadillac was hired we have signed *Tank (I put an asterisk because Garner was listed as his primary recruiter), Hunter, Alston and Cobb. Those are all good backs, but one would assume a legend like Cadillac Williams could get the best backs in Alabama possibly Georgia. 

Production wise I'll cut him some slack since he was dealt an immediate bad hand with Gus not recruiting O-linemen and Harsin not recruiting period, but he's only had 1 year with a 1000 yard rusher since he's been here and even the pathetic offense in 2012 created a 1000 yard rusher.

Yeah to be fair the oline has range from garbage to average over the last several years. I think we have 3 very talented backs right now. Just my opine.

IN MY UNPOPULAR OPINION...

I love Cadillac and appreciate everything he has done for Auburn University as a player, running back coach, interim head coach and ambassador, but he may the most underwhelming running backs coach since the 80's. Eddie Gran was a better running backs coach. Curtis Luper is a better running backs coach. Tim Horton was arguably a better running backs coach than Caddy.

If Caddy stays, I'll be okay with it. If he goes, I genuinely wish him the very best.

I’m not really sure how you judge a RB coach? I just think of recruiting and the players performance. The RBs seem to be doing well to me but 🤷‍♂️

That kind of thinking is why we havnt had a passing game in over a decade

No, the reason was because Gus ran a high school offense with a basic passing game. I think it’s better to be balanced with a run lean. I don’t want to be all run like the triple option or all air raid (which Hugh would likely prefer to lean more to).

Dang wish we got LJ

The rumor on Twitter is that Caddy is being pushed out. Will land someplace like UAB and it will be sold as a mutual parting. 

No clue if this is true or not. 

Makes sense. Hugh likely doesn’t plan on using RBs in his eventual offense anyways, which I hate. Auburn should always be a run oriented offense.

Need about 5+ more 4/5 star olinemen

I felt like Michigan dominated the LOS and specifically Bama’s oline all day.  Its was a physical game that went down to the wire, the better team won.

Yes there were time when Michigan dominated but there were times when the Bama talent decided they wanted to win and got a leg up at times. Michigan wanted it more, I believe. BTW I would not bet on Milroe or a Kevin Steele defense and feel comfortable that I’d win.

Hugh is recruiting not coaching 

I was hoping maybe he could gets us some dawgzzz for the oline and dline while he is recruiting and not coaching. I think he’s already landed a WR for the 2031 class though.

Both teams had a chance because of their physicality in the trenches. I hope Hugh took notice.

I wouldn’t cry if it were 1. Alston and 2. Cobb. Eventually it should be Cobb at #1.

Yep after Alston graduates
