AUBourne 425 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Who said Auburn has sent him multiple offers? We just fired Gus yesterday. 1 minute ago, DAG said: Disagreement is fine. Like I said, I don't think this guy is worth a bidding war. Do your due diligence , but if I am Auburn, I am sticking to my guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to believe him. A very Raymond Harbert thing to do. Why does he hate Auburn so much? lmao. But seriously. HE IS SO BAD AT THIS like others have said. @GwillMac6name please. I hate sifting through all the mud that's over there right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOU HAVE to be able to be a lights out recruiter. Look at Kirby. meh coach. One of the best recruiters. Cristobal is in that class. He is a top 5 recruiting head coach. This! Kirby isn't having success at GA because of X's, and o's. It's recruiting. End of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take it ahhhh Talk me off the edge. Won't talk you down just yet. If it turns out to be Steele, you're in just the right spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wow ... this process pretty much guarantees Steele because none of our coaching targets would want to change after signing day either. Puts a bad light on them to sign these guys and leave. Plus they may want to try to bring them with them to the new destination. Maybe Napier would still come because of the big jump in class, but you can kiss MC goodbye. Interim President just stuck in his ways, keeps Auburn from not sucking. Look, I love KS. I was extremely excited when he was hired as DC. I know the family. I respect Steele to do the best he can but I do not want him as HC for this hire. We need a big name. We have the pick of the litter. Just can't believe we can't get out of our own way, and had no viable plan. Crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would lose zero sleep if he chose not to come here and I would have the same amount of Joy if he or CBN were named coach. I am sorry you choose not to see that.

Win4AU 4,054 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I'm going with @Beaker. No way Auburn fired Gus and is ready to pay him 21 mill without having someone lined up. Maybe there's other circumstances keeping Auburn from formally announcing whoever it is but I got to believe you don't make this move if you don't have your next guy ready. Things weren't going so bad that Auburn couldn't have held Gus another season and made a move then when you'd have to do something with his contract. Now you've potentially torpedo'd the 6-7 high quality recruits that Auburn was projected to sign this week and maybe losing some of the few guys Auburn had locked up. It hasn't been 24hrs yet since Gus was canned so still early to panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came here to see if any info, and all I find is a bunch of total loons going off the deep end with no real information to warrant anything.

EagleEye67 1,944 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Interesting angle from Outkick: If I were Auburn president Jay Gogue, I’d hop on a plane for Bloomington, Ind., right now and beg Tom Allen to take the job. He’s exactly – and I can’t stress this enough, exactly – what Auburn wants from its football coach. Auburn loves to speak about it its family atmosphere, and how being part of that family is the most important thing (and winning — or lose and get $21.4 million to go away). Allen, who was an assistant on Freeze’s Ole Miss staff for 3 seasons, took over at Indiana and has transformed a basketball school into a legitimate threat in the Big Ten. His mantra LEO – Love Each Other – is about as Auburn as it gets. He preaches the idea of players and coaches and staff loving each other, and moving that love into the passion of playing for and with each other. Yeah, it’s hokey. But you know what? It worked at IU. He recruits furiously in the state of Florida (where he was a high school coach), and he has built his team on fast defenses and a dangerous dual-threat quarterback. Why make any other choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
