I wouldn’t want any coach dumb enough to sign a contract like that.

Who cares, if he were the best man for the job?

Willis left Auburn to work for the best coach out there today. Hard to argue with a man trying to move up in his career. 

It was a long time ago, I don’t recall if he burned bridges or anything, and don’t know how his recruiting was against Auburn.

But if it’s just a case if having left Auburn for  the Gumps 14 years ago, I’d say it’s time to get over it.

I didn't know Luke Skywalker (on the left) and TedDibiase (on the right) were in Aba?  Pretty sweet, though!

He was, but he usually paid Virgil to go on stage and sing for him.

I thought this was going to be the official Rhett Lashlee thread....

He’ll obviously be the head coach….

Support the site.  For real, there's no better time.  You think the convo is good hear ... ask anyone who's a Platinum or Gold Donor and been over on the Eagles Nest these last few weeks.  Join them!

 

It's all champagne wishes and caviar dreams in the Nest. Red even sends you a gold-plated computer mouse once you join. Worth the money.

He is not Eddie Robinson from Grambling son

My bad, I just assumed, didn't bother to confirm.

It would be interesting to see what Robinson would do in the roles were reversed?

Considering who his Father was, I would have to think it's less likely he'll leave SWAC. I could see him being a lifer, but who knows.

Why would he be considered a candidate for AU if he's never beaten a ranked team?  That doesn't make any sense.

I'm not pushing for Rhule, but I believe this is short-sided.

He coached four years at Temple and managed to win 10 games twice, get them ranked in both 10-win seasons, and make it to a bowl game. AT TEMPLE.

Inherited a mess at Baylor and went from 1 win in year 1 to 7 wins and a bowl in year 2 to 11 wins and the Sugar Bowl in year 3.

I know nothing about his personal life or any issues, but based on his college experience, I'd say he's worth consideration.

Per Al.com auburn just hired a “senior athletics director for compliance”. 

Not being familiar with the inner workings of an athletic department, it seems like this is the type of position an AD would want input in, or am I wrong?

Robby's passing seems to be more accurate when he's running for his life instead of standing in the pocket.

I'm hoping Harsin is fired tonight, don't even let him in the locker room after game. 

Ever been a sideline firing?

These guys on here hate Harsin so much they'll blame the Kennedy assassination on him before the night is over. 

No one “hates” Harsin. At least I doubt.

but hardly anyone here thinks he’s a good enough coach to be at Auburn.

Fire a coach after an LSU win? Hmm🤔. It’s never been done, but it would be a great story for the rivalry.

First time for everything.

Even if we win, Harsin needs to go. Play calling is horrible. Even if I wasn’t bourbonfied, I would say the same. This is painful.

Use Theme in Footer and toggle to AUFAMILY PRO.  You'll then have Light/Dark buttons in the top navi.

Thank you for making that an option, the dark was giving me a headache. 

I'm back to normal now, or at least as normal as I get.

Game plan - Tell Mizzou the game has been moved to 6pm.

We show up ready to play at 11am. They no show and forfeit, we win!

To answer the OP, the only correct answer is "to the liquor store"

Unfortunately, he was not

At least it would save us from a buyout...

If he has a bad year and gets fired, there's a buyout and the press will skewer us for only giving him two years and bungling the entire process, which apparently we did.

If he wins and leaves on his own accord, it saves us from a buyout and the press will skewer us for being such a toxic place to work that we ran off a winning coach.

If he has a mediocre-to-decent year and he stays, it's just a matter of time before the inevitable firing happens, and the press will skewer us because that's what they do.

In the meantime, I'm well-stocked on bourbon for what will be an interesting season, and thankfully basketball season is just around the corner.

 

I don’t know why we can’t just go back to BOOM!

Softball had to use the Kinesiology building for data tracking while baseball got its own stuff for that. I know because while doing research with the Kinesiology building, we worked with the softball team many times, but the baseball team would never do so.

If any of you have daughters who play softball it's well worth having them go to the Kinesiology building and have them go through strength/agility/hitting testing with them. They are always looking for girls for testing. They do throwing as well, but we didn't have time for that. They'll send them a Rapsodo report with the exit velocities and all that stuff, plus a write up that includes recommended stretches and things of that nature. We did it earlier this year, my daughter enjoyed it. Worth the drive back and forth from Atlanta.

They paid 25 players an average of $120k each and he says they didn't buy anyone?
