If he truly believes that, that's why he would stay. I want him gone, but I'll be first to admit that if he stays and wins 11+ games next year, I might think differently. Gus knows that winning will fix everything and I guess he still thinks he can. He will have to win a SEC championship and get us into the playoffs for feelings to be nixed IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJCrawford 1,568 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I’m not sure how he is “taking us down”. The university still has the option to just fire him. THEY are the ones who have handled this the way they have from the start. I don’t want to keep Malzahn but the PTB are the indecisive jerks here. My anger is more with them.

I agree, but they made the offer because any other coach would decline, but gus’ ego supersedes that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll certainly soften my stance with a SECC but he'll have to back it up with 2-3 losses, or less, (including bowl) for me to POSSIBLY trust him. That said, unfortunately, I don't think there's any danger of either. His actions and this stupid renegotiation HAS to have neutered his recruiting power, you'd think.... right?

If he manages to stay and catch lightning in a bottle next year, he will probably get the chance to show us if he can have consecutive 10 win seasons before finally being shown the door.

Sad thing is, if got got a 10+ win season the following year, he’d get an extension and follow it up with 7-6.

GwillMac6 20,692 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Recruiting is officially dead now. D E A D. If you thought OL crutin was bad it will be like that across the board for next years class at every position group. We already have made it easy for our rivals to negative recruit us. It is a frickin layup now. It will set us back years. Having even 1 bad recruiting back takes years to recover from. Just look at the OL mess we are in now. How it played out was the absolute worst thing that could of happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwillMac6 20,692 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 LOL He is not winning more than 7 games next year. There is 5 losses automatically at the jump next year in Lsu, Florida, Tamu. Georgia and Bama. Knowing Gus he will lose ` or 2 more he should not lose like usual.

BJCrawford 1,568 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 See I still think if he had a great season next year, he would take the first offer that came along and flip us off on the way out the door. 😬THATS what a person with a really big ego would do.

DAG 33,998 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Of course we are assuming that we will be better next year. I hate to say it but I think we stay the same or get worse. Love to be proven wrong. I feel like all the other teams with the exception of Ole Miss and Pathetic Arkansas will still be bottom dwellers. I think if we lose to all 3 of our rivals then it is bye bye Gus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think worse just due to same OL new QB, losing RD at WR, plus what we lose on D. If injuries happen as well, geez, we’re in a rough spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUwent 3,756 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Even with the reduction in buyout, we still gave him a pretty sweet one at that, and he still gets it after a season that warrants a firing. So maybe we won't be hurt (too badly, anyway) when we're looking next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
