Zeek 16,656 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hell of a recruiter. I doubt Harsin would let us have a bad offense. I'm going to try and be positive about it. Don't know much about Friend though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if Bobo can develop Bo Nix and bring in Gunner Stockton in 2022. I think Bryan Harsin will still control the offense. My only concern now is if Bobo is calling the plays...

It was friend leaving him because of all the uncertainty in Knoxville now. He paid them to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also at the end of his tenure there GA’s offense looked archaic. I’m not for this hire at all personally. I can accept that Harsin knows a lot more than me about building a competitive football program, so I can accept that if he hired Mike Bobo, he did it for a reason.

You hire a coach for coaching, development and recruiting first and foremost not because of who he can bring with him. If he's a sorry coach based on those aspects above then he does not all of a sudden become a good coach because a couple of guys follow him.

AUcivE09 582 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 At the very least he was able to develop a QB or 2 at UGA. Just think of who he coached - Stafford/Greene/Murray. Those are about as a diverse group of QBs as you could imagine as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems he can get a lot of out of Dual Threats as well. Interesting hire. My ill-informed opinion is that he'll come in for a few years and beef up the talent with his recruiting skills, but will probably be replaced eventually by someone with a more modern system. I hope I'm wrong about the latter and am definitely willing to buy in until I'm given a reason to cash out. War Eagle Coach Bobo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUGoo 2,664 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Wife's a Gamecock. What little USCe FB i watched this year, I thought the Gamecock O looked Gustratingly familiar. Hoping it was due to being in Columbia, where head coaches go to end their careers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotsAU 1,336 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Not a fan of this hire, but we’ll see how Harsin uses him. I haven’t paid much attention to him since he left UGA, but his offenses at UGA were VERY bland. Frustration with Bobo’s offense is ultimately what got Richt fired. In the day of spread offenses, he’s going to have to show more versatility than he did at UGA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcrosson 203 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Super lukewarm on this hire. It feels like we took a decade-sized step back. Hope I’m wrong, but I was also lukewarm on Steele and that worked out to Auburn’s favor. Truly hope this plays out in a similar fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
