Definitely not the “Christian Man” he’d like for people to believe. But this was also in the mid 2000s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't be on our high horse on stuff like that especially with the softball scandal we had a few years ago. Obviously, Ole Miss has no morals, as evidenced by their last hire.

aubaseball 2,633 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 This thread is hilarious. No to this coach, yes to that coach. Got to be able to beat Alabama and Georgia. Got to win the recruiting battles. Answer this? Besides the tuberville run against Bama (which was arguably their worst time in the last 50 years) when has Auburn dominated Alabama and Georgia? I know, they haven’t. And more than likely never will. As long as Bama and Georgia hire good coaches, Auburn will never become what Clemson is doing. So if you are looking to get to that level, the other two schools have to be trending down . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll never get that chance...not at AU. I’ve agreed with you on everything but this. He will be Auburn’s next head coach. Because we are Auburn and this is the kind of **** we do. I look forward to agreeing with you on the next head coach prediction thread in 5 years.

AUBourne 425 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 No I wasn't referring to you. I mean statements like, Auburn is not going to fire Gus because of Covid. Or Auburn is not going to talk to Freeze because w/e. I never know if a person is an actual insider or just a blow hard. My take is this on Hugh Freeze. The whole nation perceives Auburn as dirty because of how the media treated Cam, because of Chuck Person and the fact Bruce Pearl gets a check from AU. It would be dumb to limit ourselves to try and prove them wrong. The media and outsiders are going to hate on Auburn no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just that until the other start to fall, it really doesn’t matter who Auburn gets. My opinion though, there are 50 coaches out there that can do what our current one is doing. Not saying it’s not time for a change, I want one, it’s that Auburn is not getting to the level that Clemson is at as long as Saban is walking the other sideline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most fans understand that we're not, and simply want to see Auburn living up to its potential - which we can argue all day about what that potential is - but I think most agree that we aren't living up to it under the current staff. You have to remember that most Auburn fans don't post incessantly on message boards or Twitter, and are generally more realistic than those who do.

Arky St. 10-2 Ole Miss 7-6,8-5,9-4,10-3,5-7 Liberty. 8-5, 9-1 2-2 in bowls Notable assistants - Tom Allen and Matt Luke What is elite about anything he’s done in his coaching career. He had a 10 win season at Ole Miss when they had Chad Kelly and a butt load of talent at receiver. And he won a Sugar Bowl. He’s having a good season at Liberty where they have notable wins over such powerhouses as Virginia Tech, Western Carolina, UMass, Southern Miss, North Alabama, LA Monroe, Syracuse, FIU, and Western Kentucky. That’s it. But, but he beat bama in back to back years...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to waste at least 10 hours a week b**ching about the head coach, or you’re not a real Auburn fan. We like to call those non obsessed fans “the smart people” or “mentally healthy”.
