AUpocalypse 12 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 If we could get Jimbo Fisher and his staff (primarily Mark Stoops), I would be fine with that as well. wde They would NEVER come to Auburn. Why go down? Why wouldn't they? wde Jimbo is already at a school with as much prestige (if not more) than what Auburn has, he has better athletes already, and he is in a much easier conference. He has the good life over there right now. +1 and I'll raise you location and quality of life which comes with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icanthearyou 4,464 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Give Petrino the keys yesterday. I believe that sometimes good people do bad things but I just don't see him as a good person. I want to win, but not that badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigertill 0 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Has anyone thought about Jim Levitte as head coach. The man can coach. And he has a serious resume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,114 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I'd take Butch Davis over Petrino, but I wouldn't mind either one. I just want a HC that has a clue. So you want a guy that has had 2 NCAA investigations over the guy who has none? Makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,114 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Anyway we can get both Sumlin & Kingsbury from TAMU? No. The jobs are essentually the same because Sumlin has Texas to recruit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,114 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 How bad must JJ feel knowing that when he hired Chizik coaches like Garry Patterson, Kevin Sumlin, and Brian Kelly were available. Does JJ even realize how stupid his choice was? He should. He turned Patterson away for a guy that was 5-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He turned Patterson away for a guy that was 5-19 For the 8th time he did not per say turn Patterson away he cared more about giving his boy Jackson a job then getting a head coach.

Patterson walked out of the interivew. That is still in essence turning him away because Patterson rightly saw work conditions that were unreasonable. If JJ put Auburn and business first Patterson would have gotten the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbone4jc 2,241 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Being from Charlotte I believe I can answer the Butch Davis situation at Chapel Hill. He was caught red handed cheating. He knew what was happening, lied about it and it has been proven and documented for all to see. Why do you think his name no longer appears as a viable candidate for a Head Coaching job anywhere?We don't need that kind of baggage here at Auburn with all of the rumors from 2010 still in circulation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SphyNxXx 96 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I agree with Ellitor....no way on Davis. Petrino's initial PR nightmare would fade away quickly after he lit some teams up. Davis would make things worse by getting us on probation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since my list is: Peterson, Schiano, then everyone else, it doesn't really matter to me. I just want a HC that has a clue about football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither one possible And $aban wasn't possible for uat. I keep hearing this, but a good AD could make it happen. Schiano is doing well at Tampa, so you're right about him. I'd make Peterson have to file a restraining order on me before I stopped trying to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChattAU 0 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I just really hope that we can hire a coach of Petrino's caliber, without actually hiring that man. I can overlook some character flaws, but he just seems like a human disaster sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
