Yeah, I think the question is, “will he change/adjust ENOUGH to actually be successful?”    And to that question, I would answer no, I don’t think so.  

Only fell to #2.  Still quite impressive!!!

Good to see Arky and one other unnamed SEC school climb into the top 25 this week. We’ve got 2 top 5 teams and 5 top 25 teams in our league!

How long do you think it will be before we can afford to do the deed? If AG's contract isn't renewed I'm guessing we make the change after 2023.

Unfortunately, this seems like the most likely timeline.  Play on the field and recruiting will suck for 2 more years.   Hopefully, we’ll hire a top level AD who will then hire a top level HC, then 2-3 years after that we’ll see a competitive product on the field.  (that means we are currently looking forward to the 2025 or 2026 season😭🤦‍♂️).   That’s actually a positive scenario.   The negative scenario would be we hire a poor AD, he hires a poor HC, the PTB continues to try and control everything, and we sink deeper into obscurity and irrelevance.  
Let’s hope for the positive scenario.  Or if you’re a real sunshine pumper, hope that CBH turns this thing around and we have a great team this year.  

The most baffling thing about our staff is that Friend is still here!  What is that about?!?!?

How could UNC not play this dude???

I have no idea, but it’s gonna be tough for them to win a recruiting battle against us for a 5 for a good while!

Atta boy Kessler!!!

2 trips in a row….HORRIBLE FOULS NOT CALLED!!!!!😡

Cardwell having a good game today too.   The 5 spot is 7/9 shooting, 17 points, and a ton of blocks and altered shots!!!!

KD is hilarious!   Such an emotional ball of energy!!!

What the heck was that call?!?!?!😡

Kessler is such a huge advantage for us!   It absolutely sucks big time when they call stupid fouls on him like that!!!!!!😡.  I think he has 3 fouls and 2 of them were total bs!!!

We’re getting killed on the boards and we’ve been very sloppy at times offensively, but defense has been nasty!

This may be the first basketball game these refs have ever been to.  

What an embarrassment for every referee everywhere!!!

Cambridge can fly!!!

HARSIN is in the building!!

Several jokes came to mind, but instead I’m just going to say I hope that maybe that’s a positive sign.   🤷‍♂️

KD with an assist!!!

So that’s over the back when AU does it, but it’s perfectly cool when they do it.   Ok. 

Man this is ugly!

Very sloppy so far!!!   We look a little sluggish.   We’ve gotten beat to the ball a lot already.   The neat thing is every time we have hustled to the ball they’ve called it a foul.  Nice!

So, this thread should be a lot of fun for the next 11 months.  😁

In order to make it to 20 pages we’re gonna need cheerleader pics, a gif showdown, and knock knock jokes.  🤣🤣🤣

Because he was just absolutely crushing it until this last week.

Right!?!?   See my post right above yours.   I think he sucked anyway, but now we’re going to see a level of suckyness that has only ever been conceived in our deepest darkest worst nightmares.

Yes I am. 

You know half of our receivers have never caught a ball in a college football game?  HALF  

I used the phrase "dead man walking" earlier.   And every coach in the south will easily win every worthy recruiting battle against Auburn.  So yeah, I am hoping we hit mediocrity. 

 

 

There isn’t a “I fully agree with this post even though I don’t like it one bit” reaction, so I had to quote you.  🤷‍♂️

Given every opportunity available to be successful at Auburn, I don’t think Harsin could reach and maintain a high level of success.     Now that he has been given multiple huge disadvantages, I see absolutely no way whatsoever that we can field even a halfway decent team in 2022, with the prospects for each year afterwards that he stays getting worse and worse.   

Well, our beloved university didn’t ruin a man’s life and family any further today.   So that part is good.  We did put him in a position to make absolutely certain that he will fail!  He is going to have a hard time finding good coaches willing to fill the vacancies on staff.   And we’ve certainly hindered his recruiting ability, which already sucked!  In short, we’re doomed!   People are talking about mediocrity.   I’m afraid we will be hoping for mediocrity.
