boisnumber1 2,819 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Yeah, its obvious K Briles is a hot commodity. FAU is a football powerhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeslider 6 269 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I believe this is not a bad thing, look at it like this. Briles goes to FAU, a place that can give him a broader experience under another offensive minded coach. Then next year, when Lashlee leaves for another job, Briles is a year away from all the Baylor mess and he comes to AU a year smarter and with a substantial pay raise. Not to mention we know more about whether he can succeed at AU. I think the move is a good one, for everybody involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abw0004 10,125 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 With all of the offensive coordinator vacancies open for 2017, and FAU is the only one to offer him (pretty sure FAU wasn't his dream school), that tells you right there schools are keeping their distance for a reason. Remember Lashlee is the reason we have Stidham, so don't hate on him too much. Especially if you are one of the people who thinks SW is not a good QB.

I have no clue why this could possibly be the case http://sportsday.dallasnews.com/college-sports/collegesports/2016/12/21/baylor-fined-ncaa-ruled-committed-recruiting-violations Quote The NCAA ruled Wednesday that it will accept Baylor's self-imposed sanctions for violations involving offensive coordinator Kendal Briles and assistant coaches Tate Wallis and Jeff Lebby.

The rest was a link showing a possible connection showing reasoning behind why he is only getting the FAU job, sans the whole thing with his dad remember apples don't fall far, however they may end up far away from the tree, this is only if the tree is on a hill and the apple can roll away, something about newtons second law... ha just messing with you get some sleep and enough life.

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 It's funny, after watching Rhett as AU's OC go against Kiffin, Lane sure didn't won't Lashlee on his staff. Lane's play calling jumped all over Rhett's play calling the last 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 If the NCAA allows teams to have 10 assist coaches starting in 2017, hopefully Jacobs and Malzahn will hire Art Briles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not the savior, per se, but the going thought is that Gus needs new blood in there, and Briles' offense translates very well to what we run. In addition, I've heard mention that he was more the mastermind behind Baylor's offense than his father, not to mention that Malzahn and the elder Briles are friends, making the match sensible.

bg5 536 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I'm not sure how bad we really wanted him. What we wanted JS. We have him. If we replace RL I would like to get someone who is a little more proven. Briles may be that guy but I want to see what he can do on his own. One year is a small sample size without Dad.

Is it new blood or does Gus just need a Qb that can execute at an efficient rate. His offense has only struggled when their has been inexperience or lack of talent at QB. I like KB, and the passing offense they ran, maybe after some time at FAU he comes here, especially if Lashlee moves up and on to another place....
