I see maybe 4 more wins at the most unfortunately.

Just so disappointed in our energy and how we played tonight on our home court.

I think its his HS coach.
Yes, Easley is his high school coach.

Yah I agree. I am also disappointed after that showing against Memphis. Broome looked a little intimidated to me last night. Honestly my main concern is the freshmen. Westry and Traore haven’t improved a bit. I expected much more from them. Donaldson needs to play more in my opinion. Not sure why these highly touted freshmen are playing scared. But just my opinions, I trust that BP will fix it!!

Vizzina has to be first - we need an elite QB.
Smith & Russaw are definitely next in line! I believe they are just looking for the right reason to choose AU!
Hughley is 3rd - we HAVE to start getting elite OL

No to Vizzina. I’m glad he doesn’t have interest. He is not an elite QB as I have watched him the past two years in high school. I think we dodged a bullet with that.

Praying for Bobby!

Well said AUtrack

Thank you LP for posting that. I’ve been saying he’s not the answer. He might give you one good year and then a bunch of average years like we can get from other coaches.

Have you bothered to check into his background? According to his own book (How Power, Money and Sex Almost Ruined My Life) Sanders has been involved in many illegal, immoral and unethical activities. That's a pretty good clue as to why the AU administration isn't interested. Is he a changed man now? That's possible.
I will point out that at JSU all Sanders has to do is recruit a handful of P5 type players and turn them loose against inferior competition. When he's faced with recruiting a 25 man class in competition against the Big Boys, how will he react? If the loses three games in his first four, how will he react? Will he revert to some form of cheating when his back is against the wall? Nobody knows and that includes Sanders himself.
Auburn doesn't need a splash hire. Some fans want a splash hire but that's not what AU needs. AU needs a qualified coach who will build the program with a steady and strong hand and at the same time stay out of major controversy. Who that may be I'll leave to the people whose job it is to know such things but clearly, Sanders doesn't fit that description.
Mikey, yes I have read all your posts and know you are adamant about not wanting Deion. I respect your opinion because my dad is also dead set in his ways. But we will have to respectfully agree to disagree.
Yes I have Deions book, I have his CD (lol), I have his Dallas jersey, and I have a signed helmet. I know a lot about him. Every coach we talk about has things in their past, most have things not brought to the light yet. But yes I am all for believing he has changed.
As far as him only recruiting a handful of players at Jackson St. Again this is true, but that’s all he has do do to win. If at Auburn he will be able to recruit as much as he needs with the resources and name of Auburn. We are comparing two different things in what JSU needs and what Auburn needs. Fact is he can get it done.
I agree with you that we need a coach that will build a championship program, but I also think it needs to be one that is a splash hire as well. This Auburn program needs something special now and not have to wait 3-5 years for results. Auburn has been through enough. But yes, I too will leave it up to the admin and do solidly think Deion fits what we need.

If we do pass on Deion, imo a friggin misfire.
Man, I completely agree with you. Deion is the only coach even being talked about that can do what we need at Auburn. And it blows my mind that he’s not even being considered by administration. Auburn is as low as I have even seen it in my 48 years and we need a jolt. He is the one that can give us that jolt we need. Yes the downside that everyone keeps bringing up is worth the risk at this point, because the upside is so large.
IMO every other coach mentioned is going to be a rinse, cycle, repeat of all of our hires . We will have some 8-4 seasons, if the coach stays long enough to build. Kiffin is not the answer. We need different, we need that “it” factor. Who know, maybe there is a name out there we haven’t heard that can be that. Just hope this hire will be different.
This is just my opinion and I needed to get it off my chest because I’m so ready for my Auburn Tigers to get what they deserve. I just think Deion is that. Auburn has been through enough crap, things they shouldn’t have to go through, and it’s time for the silver lining! I know everyone’s opinion seems to get flamed, so if you feel that need then go ahead lol. -

I guess Auburn board and Prez really wanted Lane and so that’s why they hired Cohen?
I hope he does well and I’ll gladly eat crow but I’m just that excited for this hire. I wanted a grand slam hire that would put UGA and Bama on notice. We just hired a very popular coach who has a lot of potential but we will see if he can clean up a mess like this.
Completely agree.

I would take Sanders over all and Kiffin over Dabo but that is just me.
No, that is me as well. Would take him by a wide margin.

Not pushing him for hc, but damn he needs to stay. Owe him a lot. Imagining him and Sanders combined. Dear lord
Yes. This! We gotta have this!!!

Completely agree WarEagleHunter1221! No doubt Kiffin and Freeze are great coaching minds. We just need more than that right now. Things I don’t think they can provide that Deion can! Bring on Coach Prime

If it’s freeze or grimes. it’s more likely that we’ll need to borrow money from him to afford another buy out in 2 years.
Amen to that!

Down would not only be able to recruit and use the portal immediately but he would bring in the emotion and intensity that Cadillac showed last night. He has the ability to promote Auburn University Nationally and no doubt can get some great Assistant Coaches which I hope is Cadillac to keep our players playing hard. I am ok with Kiffin and Freeze if we go that way but the sky is the limit and a fast turn around immediately with Dieon. Again just my opinion I respect the other opinions on this board.
Agree with you, it’s got to be Deion! Those other two I could get behind, but Deion is the homerun hire!

I agree! I was happy with those adjustments. The D did a good job! M’ba will be a great one.

I could definitely get on board with that. Good grief at the recruiting prowess a staff led by Deion and Carnell would have...
Amen to that. Saturday’s would be exciting again!!!

Yes, I agree with these assessments. I really hope that Deion gets this job and knowing what Caddy means to the school and his leadership gives him the Associate Head Coach position. Deion would definitely not feel threatened by that.

Man, y’all aren’t lying. That’s the worst line I have ever seen. There was one play that State’s entire Dline got through untouched and all you can see is 5 AU lineman jogging behind them watching Robby run for his life. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a play where not one lineman got a block. It’s extremely embarrassing.

They need to sit all of the power brokers at Auburn down and have them watch this one clip.
Then have them listen to the audio from Tony Franklin yesterday.
Auburn could be a freaking powerhouse and be relevant instantly if they hired one of these two guys.
Yes, definitely!! We got to get Deion to change things around here!
