I'm talking money bro.  If Texas couldn't land him, we sure as hell can't.

Money ain't everything bro. If it was, I would've never left consulting in California.

I understand not announcing a replacement on Sunday out of respect for Gus, but again, if this is a formality, you announce it straight out of the gate. I do not see the wisdom in waiting, at all. 

Perhaps announcing a search committee on Sunday wouldn't quell speculation about who would be hired, but I think it would have helped quell speculation about who is making these decisions, and how that process is being handled. I think it would have helped engender confidence in the process. Fans are going to yap all day long about what coach Auburn should hire, but the leaks about fractured leadership, and power struggles between boosters are ridiculous. 

If Auburn has had a plan - and this is all a part of their plan - someone ought to be fired. I appreciate those of you trying to make all of this look reasonable. 

Basically what I was going to say. 

Again, I appreciate that you are trying to offer reasonable explanations for what's happening. I can usually see the logical side of things. I don't see it here. 

Also, @McLoofus want to say that I know you aren't defending these decisions, necessarily. Just offering some explanations. Thanks.

Re: Bill Clark--

I'm impressed with what he has managed to salvage and accomplish at UAB, but looking at his resume, it reads similar to Gus Malzahn's in 2012, without the major college experience.

Totally understand and I hope my responses reflect that.

Cheers, brother.

Some dude just called into Finebaum and said he has a buddy that is in tight with yellow man and that quietly behind the scenes they are working on Kiffin. I would LMAO if this happened. I'm down with the Lane train for the entertainment factor.

Dude, if it’s Kevin Steele then we deserve everything we got coming to us as a football program. If Auburn can look around the SEC. See Saban, Smart, Mullen, Kiffin, Leach, possibly Freeze, Jimbo....and think, yea Kevin Steele is a good hire, then that almost championship we had in 2013 was the closest we are going to get to glory until the last boomer has crossed the pearly gates. 
 

Also, I will never.....ever state that we should fire a guy like Gus Malzahn again. Because if Kevin Steele becomes our head coach, we are gonna be wishing we were back in the 7-5 era.

No, it's not everything.  But Texas flat out offers several things that Auburn doesn't:

1) More cash

2) The name brand school in the biggest recruiting territory in America

3) Better facilities

Any thought of Urban considering us over Texas is a pipe dream, especially based on his previous coaching stops.

Kiffin did quote Saban saying he wasn’t leaving the Dolphins when he was asked about the Auburn job. Just saying. If it’s Kiffin, I’m down. Let’s all be Freahwater bro’s!!
