Beaker 2,457 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 You what sounds halfway plausible to me? Les Miles to Ark. I have not heard that, just sharing a thought. He knows LA and S TX and it would be much better than any other offer he has had. I am hearing Oregon St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathergeakal 283 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I said after the LSU game and before the UGA game that best case scenario was we won out and Arky hired him. But after how i saw him during the UGA game I am now back on the bus. Alabama will be the tell-all game for Gus. Is he changed or was it a one-game fluke.

Do you want an award or something? Gus saw fit for the first time in 3 yrs to put a product on the field that dominated a top ranked opponent. I gave him an "atta Boy" and an applause. Gus has still not proven that he can keep his head above water in a pool where the annual championship contenders consistently swim laps like Michael Phelps.

So really the only point of these polls is just to get people arguing again and hating on one another. So I try to interject some comedy when I can to get people to relax. Times are good for this Auburn football team! Let's keep that mindset rolling into next week like we did before the UGA game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the last time another program asked for AU's permission to interview CGM? Jimmy Sexton has hit the ground running and struck while the iron was red HOT! Throw his clients name around for an Arky job that isn't even freaking open in the wake of Gus' best win on over 3 damn years. Proceed to get the AU fan base all in an uproar, get these AU message boards buzzing like an angry bee hive and try like hell to get his client a premature contract extension & raise in pay. Sexton is the best in the business. But anyone in the AU Administration that takes his bait regardless of the outcome of this season are a bunch of fools in suits 'n ties.

Mike4AU 1,739 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 For those who may be worried about the possibility of Gus leaving, remember that Auburn was great before he got here and will be great when he is no longer at Auburn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in all seriousness, there’s just enough logic to it to discuss it but not really enough to consider it. (Noted: logic not Gus’s strong suit). Arky makes more sense for a last-stop gig for Gus though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time when a coach leaves you don't get to pick and choose which coaches stay and which ones go. With all of the job opening in the SEC this year I can almost guarantee you that we will not find a better coach than Gus so you better hope he stay's. If he leaves it will set us back three years. A new Off. and Def. will come in and we will lose some recruits. this is not a good year to be making changes. Newsflash! If Gus wants to leave that does not automatucally mean that his assisyant coaches want to follow him especially to a school who will likely he unable to pay them as much as Auburn when paying Gus' buyout along with a 4m+ yearly salary. And you seem to know a lot to be sure we will be set back especially when outside of UF Auburn would be the best opening by a long way. Lets also not forget Belima and 9m buyout.

Hard to sell Arkansas to everyone on staff other than Herb Hand and Kodi Burns (mainly because those 2 guys would probably not get picked up by top Power 5 programs) to jump ship from Auburn to goto Arky where it's harder to win and likely get paid less. Why would any of our defensive staff want to do that? I don't think it's about the money for Gus. He's taken steps down multiple times before in the name of control. That's where his heart is, IMO. And Arky may just hand over all control to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
