AuCivilEng1 11,026 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 This Steele stuff is working just how it is supposed to. I’ve heard a lot of people say “anyone but Steele”. That’s what they want you to say. That way when the trot in the dud that that undoubtedly will, we are all just relieved it wasn’t KS. Keep your eyes on the prize people. Auburn can do better than “anyone but Steele”. We need a stud who’s going to elevate the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Brent then Elliot would be my fourth Any chance Billy has an offer and other agents being advised? He would be only other guy that could have interviewed so far. Oh never mind I am sure JABA.

The sad thing is I do think these other guys hav to sway the auburn men from Steele . I am really disappointed in people like Bo (rumored) who all are like good ole boy people.

For the truthers, listen to this. Perhaps your paradigm changes. I probably missed it in the earlier pages, but do you have an idea who the coaches were that were at odds with each other and the HC? It's no wonder our defense was so bad this year if that is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeek 16,660 Posted December 19, 2020 Author Share Posted December 19, 2020 Seriously, I'd bet if it's not Steele it's Napier. Safest cheapest hire. Not saying it's right but it 100% seems like the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aubaseball 2,648 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 If what Jboy is saying is true and there is a name out there that is going to be interviewed, I’m going to go out on a limb and predict that it is Bob Stoops. If he is willing to take on the challenge of Auburn, I believe it would be impactful hire. He would be the sort of person that good everyone in line and maybe turn this into something special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aubaseball 2,648 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Not to judge a coach by one play, but if it was his decision on the play against App State at the end of the game, no thanks to Napier. That was one of the dumbest decisions I’ve ever seen in a football game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was never going to happen. It shouldn't happen. He's old. His record in the SEC would be just like Gus. A bunch of 8 wins with no championships. Please stop.

drewzums343 76 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 When was the last time we had a home run coaching hire? It's been a while. I think Tubs was a good hire even though he never won a chip. Still think the best coach in Auburn history in terms of wins is Shug Jordan followed by Pat Dye. Overall Chizik was a bad hire and most of the fans saw that coming. His non cam seasons were arguably worse than those under Gus. Gus was mediocre, its like he set the groundwork to make us into a powerhouse in 2013 and 2014 but had a huge drop off after that. Wasn't a great coach but he wasn't terrible.
