Just a plain weird hire to me, but maybe I’m missing something. 

Why is deboer considered a good hire for them? Serious question… his background suggests a deluxe model of Bryan harsin .. not a cultural fit whatsoever.

There’s not a single game on an Auburn schedule that Cadillac wouldn’t have done everything in his power to win

It bothers me that have so many on this team that visibly do not feel this way. And I mean players, not just coaches. Receivers running lazy routes and failing to block and a number of defensive players just watching others make plays blows my mind. We just don’t have a lot of guys who got the dog in them. The overhaul needs to continue to turn these guys over … All of these guys seem to want to be wheels but not all of them want to do what’s necessary to roll.

It is nice to know that they both could be going to the same playoff game we are…

This. When they play each other I wish both could lose. There is a very solid chance yesterday they both did. 

Maybe it’s talent, maybe some coaching.. but even though we lost by 7, if felt like we were down by 4 scores.  Outside a couple of big plays ole miss gave up, we weren’t in that game at any point. On either side of the ball. Thats two games in a row. That’s what has sapped my enthusiasm. At least for this season.

Dye and Tuberville’s first years at AU were 5 win seasons. Saban’s first year at Bama he brought 10 years of Power 5 experience, 5 years in the SEC, a National Championship, and 2 years of NFL HC experience. He started 6-2, then lost his last four games. (Sound familiar?) Pete Carroll’s first year at USC he was 6-6. Dabo’s second year at Clemson he was 5-7. Go read his Wiki page and note the comments about the calls for his firing. Kiffin was 6-6 his first year at UT and 5-5 his first year at Ole Miss. No AU fan should be happy about the last few weeks, but history shows some patience and grace usually pays off with new coaches off to slow starts. 

I dont have the memory for what hand cpd was Dealt talent-wise but Tubs got those 5 wins playing a receiver at rb iirc.. At no point ever in the history of Auburn football while I’ve been alive do I remember a team with less talent than xCTT’s  first squad. Harsin is not dealing with 1993 or even 2012-level talent, but the cupboard is not totally bare either.

Please stop complaining about the last overturned call! Nobody on this thread legitimately thought we  were capable of marching down the field 80 yards in two minutes and winning the game

Funny enough this is 100% accurate for me. Amd I’m still mad just cuz I got to be mad at something.
