Gus is probably the most “stable” coach we’ve had since Dye. No losing seasons in 7 years. Bowl game all 7. He’s consistent. Its just an 8-4 type consistency. And as i’ve said elsewhere, maybe thats ok. Some of us just have to lower our expectations of the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us just have to lower our expectations of the program. He is consistency 8-4 , correct, but we want consistency beating the big dogs and that is not been the case. I can say this, I do believe Gus would do very well at the lower level as a HC. LK seems to be trending down at this level. Not sure why we would want to reward that. Not to mention, he wasn't particularly great at USC. I think some people just want a fancy offensive guy sometimes. Not me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, and its a big IF, Gus does beat say uga and bama and finishes 10-2...he will then be 3-4 against both which isn’t terrible. 2-5 against lsu wouldn’t be good and he still wouldn’t own a road win against any of them...I don’t even know what my point is except Gus is the ultimate middle of the road guy lol. I don’t know what to do with him!? 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aucanucktiger 1,794 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Fun looking back on threads like this since Gus' honeymoon ended in (fill in the blank). Especially posts that go something like "you know nothing about football if you disagree ____ should be our HC" and seeing how those candidates are doing now. Chad Morris and Purdue's HC were fairly recent demands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win4AU 4,054 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Gus is your Atypical Auburn Head Coach. Wins just enough big games to give you hope of getting over the hump but loses games they shouldn’t which leaves us wondering. Chizik May be the exception but Tubs, Bowden, and Dye all did the same things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't exclude Kiffin's first year in the percentages, why would I exclude Gus's? Here, I'll repeat the information just for you: All years, both coaches Kiffin win percentage .625 Malzahn win percentage: .684 Read 'em and weep.

The Freak 2,528 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Lane Kiffin is 20-13 (0.606) at a school that had a .376 winning percentage before he got there. Shameful that FAU wanted to improve and hired another coach. I mean, they could have done worse and become another Tn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
