TitanTiger 20,509 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Guys, I don't think it's going to be within 12 hours. It could be the end of the week before the hire is complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caleb1633 1,418 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Knowing Gus, he's already got the 99% solution. This will be taken care of before we know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerrules 517 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Muschamp will not be our next DC. JJ doesn't like him. Maybe so, but JJ is also a practical man. I think he swallows his pride and follows Gus on this one. But it's not over till it's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wareagleguy 1,393 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Well, I have had enough fun hanging out on this thread for one night. And while I could post several more posts laced with sarcasm and dabbed with touches of factitious wit (okay, maybe I'm exaggerating!) I think I will head to bed and leave the rest with you fine men and women. Good night and WDE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToomersRevenge 284 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Jay Jacobs won't stand in the way of Gus' hire, and here's why I think that. Jay's job was very much on the line after the Chizik hire. So much so that there was a committee formed to do his job for him. In comes Gus, Pearl, and a slew of other "home run" hires. Gus does great his first year, Jacobs looks like he's in the clear. However, Gus' success or failure is closely tied to Jacobs. Even if Jacobs doesn't like Muschamp, if Gus doesn't succeed and hires someone less than stellar and is gone after a few years, Jacobs is too. It's job security for him to make sure Gus gets who he needs to make this thing work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fricking Ray 47 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Probably a dumb statement but I don't think an assistant coach from Memphis fits the bill when there is so much riding on this hire and there are others more qualified. Then again that assumes Auburn can attract who they want. He played, coached and recruited at Missouri prior to the Memphis job. He was a winning high school coach before his time at Missouri. He's been successful at every level. I agree he is an excellent defensive coordinator. The problem is hiring him doesn't shore up the underwhelming defensive prospects for NSD. Muschamp has a much better chance of puliing a few big names that haven't even given us a look. I don't like his foul mouth and on field antics either. You know the saying about that guy is a jackwagon but its different when he's your jackwagon. I believe both can fix our broken defense but it speeds up the process by signing an improved defensive class this NSD. The downside with Muschamp is he will be looking to get another head coaching job in two or three years. The problem with Coach Odom is that he isn't well known enough to improve this years signing class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeriderga 134 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I heard Bruce Pearl was considering the job. His defenses do very well! < LOL -- just to interject some humor /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerrules 517 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 We also have to remember there are a LOT of details to iron out with this transaction. Contracts etc.. But there is also the remaining and future defensive staff. The juggling of existing staff that Auburn may keep, with staff that the New coordinator(to remain nameless) wants to bring. As well as staff we may want to bring back home. Could be quite the hat trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caleb1633 1,418 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 IMO Will Muschamp is too good to pass up. JJ can get over his sissy feelings toward him for the sake of the football program. No one cares he didn't like your wife's cooking at Thanksgiving JJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_The_Pariah 0 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I hope we can get muschamp, but if we cant pull off the home run hire i wouldnt be opposed to bringing chizik back. I know i know, he will not bring any excitement but he was a heck of a DC and he still lives in Auburn. It would also help AU from paying him around 5mil a year not to coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
