If the Prez is going to make the calls for him then I would think he might not be long to Auburn. President is only making calls on Gus because Gus is the Prez's mess. ADAG has control over everything else in the AD. If Gus stays through next season & has another subpar SEC season I think that will be enough time for Leath to then say, "ok ADAG. You make the call on him." Don't forget. ADAG has made an impact in other areas. Leath would have fired Pearl before last season ended had ADAG not interjected.

He needs to bring in a proven QB developer and not interfere with him. 2. He needs to understand that a football field is 53 1/3 yards wide and it really is okay to use ALL of it. 3. He needs to understand that defenses aren't static and he can adjust his plays and play calling accordingly. 4. He needs to understand that audibles are there to help get out if bad situations. 5. He needs to remember, it's okay to stay aggressive, it's okay to run up the score a little, and it's okay to try and score going into half. In other words, he'd need to re-learn how to call plays. He's starting to remind me of Charlie Weis. Except less interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc4aday 1,887 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 didn't think we had a chance with him anyway. (Kingsbury) If Chip leaves I wonder who will come aboard? I think Freeze is off the table now. Larry Fedora would be a nice choice. He would likely cost a cool million though. Never a dull moment here.

It doesn’t matter who would be the Auburn OC anyway because Gus Will be controlling and running the offense no matter who the OC is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarDamnEagleWDE 12,737 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Kingsberry to USC as OC is good news for AU on this. Mac Brown has crapped the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuBob 12 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Adding to the “to do” list for Gus if he stays: how about actually getting our boys ready and fired up to play a bowl game? That would be pretty nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwillMac6 20,680 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I rather have Khalil Tate. He would actually be a game changer and would give us real reason for optimism next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly Bryant as a "runner" is way way overblown. He is a better runner than stidham sure but people overrate his ability to scramble. Tate is a much better player and a lot more talented.

GwillMac6 20,680 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/khalil-tate-1.html Tate had 1.4k rushing yards and 12 touchdowns last season. He was nursing a bum wheel all season long. That is why his rushing numbers are down this season. BUT his passing stats skyrocked he threw for over 2.5k yards and 26 touchdowns.

Also heard his running stats were down because of Sumlin coming in to coach. If we miss on KB there will be a thread on KT almost immediately.

Maybe the Good Lord will come to Gus in a vision and tell him he must let his OC call the game without any interference! This might be our only chance to make it happen!

I have loved AU football through every coach we have had dating back to when I was just learning about the game (Barfield to Dye). I love the team and the spirit of AU, and that will not change.
