SCTiger2011 1,289 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 CWM has always been an antsy coordinator. I was shocked to remember earlier this season that his first stint with us was just 2 seasons. He's just a rambling man. If SCar does offer him the head coaching job, which is still a bit on the unlikely spectrum, I would not blame him one bit. If I see a promotion, I take it. He should too.

IronMan70 3,277 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I have to agree with Titan Tiger here. Muschamp doesn't have any margin for error when he does become a HC again so he has to be very careful where he goes. It takes time and it's not easy to turn another program around and SC isn't the best situation for him to do that. The wrong decision by him now would be devastating for his HC career progression. As far as other DC jobs, I don't see it. He is getting $1.6 mill from AU, the AU community loves the guy, he has complete autonomy with his defense and the opportunity to really increase his cache' over the next year or two. Having said all that, he might have already taken the SC job for all I know. :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theory I agree with you- it doesn't "feel" right- but I won't single Muschamp out for playing the game by the rules that others set. He's got to do his due diligence before making a decision, and there's no way to avoid doing that on Auburn's dime. And fwiw, that's what he's doing- seeing if he could build a staff that would be suitable there. Due diligence. Might only be a semantic distinction, but I felt it worth pointing out. Kirby Smart's doing the exact same thing on bama's dime. It's how business is conducted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnGrad97 37 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I've always believed in the motto "it's easier to find a job when you already have one, than it is to be unemployed and find a job". CWM might be concerned that, if Gus doesn't turn the offense around and start winning some conference games, changes may be coming in the next year or two, and Coach Boom might not have some of the interest he is getting now. Pure speculation, of course. I truly don't see Gus just failing to turn things around, but stranger things have happened. I'm hoping for a complete 180 starting next season, but for that to happen, it is IMPERATIVE that SW, JF III, or Woody Barrett come on like gangbusters and lead this team. I do not think JJ will be in the mix next year, even if he stays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gus were to falter next year, unless the defense was crap, Muschamp would have an excellent chance at being our next head coach. If he's not, there are a dozen good schools out there that would fight like morons at a Walmart Black Friday sale to get him as their DC and probably 3-5 schools that would offer him their head coaching job.

homersapien 11,440 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I agree with your post - if Muschamp wants to coach in the SEC, then he should take the USCe job if it's offered because it will be a couple of years before another SEC job comes open unless he wants to coach at Vandy or Kentucky, and USCe is better than both of those programs. I think CWM has to consider more than just "open SEC jobs other than Vandy or UK." He has to feel confident that whatever job he takes has the building blocks and tools needed to be successful in the next couple of years. Is SC that kind of job? I think the answer is fuzzy on that given their offensive woes, the lack of recruiting the last few years and the fact that Tennessee, Florida and Georgia seem to be trending upward while Clemson is hitting on all cylinders. He can't afford to have a second straight HC job not work out because of things that he can't control. SC's position in the college football universe is one of those things. Their current offensive woes reeks of the same issues he had at Florida. Maybe he has a plan to address that stuff. Maybe there's more raw material at SC to work with than I think. But it's not a clear cut easy decision in my eyes. Good points. Also, there's a lot of risk for South Carolina in hiring him as HC. I just don't see it happening.

Potatooooooes!! 1,375 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 Being reported that UGA has hired Smart and that Smart has targeted CWM as his DC. This is interesting. CWM went to UGA, doubt they can outpay us and CWM has a lot of power at AU now. Not sure Smart will give him this. Hmmm, take a pay cut AND get mircro managed? Seems like a good trade off.

"Auburn's Will Muschamp will reportedly interview at South Carolina today." I am SO tired of the defensive coaching musical chairs. Doesn't mean he is leaving, even if he interviews. I've interviewed for jobs before, knowing full well I'm not going to take it if offered. Sometimes, it's to jockey for more money at my current gig. Sometimes, it's for experience at interviewing. Sometimes, it's because I was approached with the opportunity, and I don't want to burn any bridges I might need to cross in the future. Not saying that any of these apply to CWM, but just because he interviews doesn't mean he is gone. Besides, Auburn knew this might happen. This would be an excellent time for Gus to show that he is, indeed, capable of being a head coach. You can't implode when an assistant gets a better offer. Any suggestions on who we would look at to replace CWM??? Please don't say Garner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
