johnjacob 44 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Dont know if its true but been hearing from Bama fans that Au is interested in Kirby Smart.. And the rumer is he is interested in AU... Of course they are saying this. Its strokes the bammer superiority complex. Well the last time we hired a former UGA player that coached at bama we dominated the SEC for a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gAUlf 1 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Someone please explain how keeping CGC around for this long has been good for Auburn? for Auburn there is no explanation. However keeping him this long should dissuade any smaller school from higher a coach with a gift NC ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Franklin from Vandy. Tell me, how high does the character of the coach rank in terms of reasons recruits commit to a school? Most would agree that Kiffin isnt a paragon of morality, but he isnt having much difficulty assembly the #1 ranked recruiting class. And this is at a school that is under sanctions.

war eagle6 0 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 AU fans that want to win now wants Petrino, the moral police fans want an Honest, High character, Never lies, good Christian man for a coach! Unless I'm horribly wrong, I don't think JESUS is coming back from heaven to coach AU football!! If its not BP, it had better be someone that can coach a football team, defensive or offensive!!

Gr8t2baub 0 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Bluevue, your insight that "we can't hire Petrino because he will leave in the middle of the night like he's done before" will apply to whomever takes this job, except Petrino. I hope you will come out with your righteous indignation guns a-blazin since they will also be quitters by your definition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the success then? Kiffin's obv sketchy however as far as I know he hasn't committed infidelity, hired his mistress, and then lied to his employer about it. They aren't in the same ballpark. The coach doesn't have to be Beaver Cleaver but I'd like for him to at least be a decent guy. It's impossible to predict how Petrino's problems will impact his recruiting moving forward. Given how high profile they were I think they are going to have in impact although I am not positive as to the extent. I think and hope we can do better.

It's all about the dollar bills y'all. Saban did what society has to some extent come to expect as coming w/ the territory w/ high profile coaching jobs moving from one to another. His situation was uglier b/c he failed to be as vague as he should have been and got caught red handed. That is easily explained away. Petrino's situation isn't.

excelsiortiger 0 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I am not promising you Petrino won't overcome all of this and be successful in the future. Perhaps he will. This is Auburn. Auburn is a power. Petrino is a risk we don't need to take at this point. Risks are for the Kentucky's and Vanderbilt's of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr8t2baub 0 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I want the best coach possible. That is all I care about. Period. His record is 75-26 at crappy schools with no tradition of winning. He wants the job and he can start tomorrow. I'm tired of hiring good men and then sitting through what I just witnessed. Since the good men obviously suck at coaching football can we try a jerk for once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really dude....just cause someone does not want BP does not mean they want some pansy... well the ptb need to make a splash hire, and I hope he is at least near BP level or above! Although the way we have been hiring lately I wouldn't be shocked of it is a pansy coach. Rite now we r worried what people will have to say about us as a whole if we do indeed hire BP!! That's what's wrong with AU rite now! I say screw that, they have already done a pretty good job of that already, 2010 was incredible with all the garbage being spewed our way,I have to ask how did we get thru that fiasco? When u r more concerned about what people say then, no wonder fear seems to be stronger than love to some people! Not me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
