Tubs did too for many. To quote Tom Cruise's Cocktail character, "everything ends badly or else it wouldn't end". We have a knack for football ending badly it seems.

AuCivilEng1 11,045 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Only Auburn can turn a guy who has failed and set us back even further than we would have been had we just paused football for a year into some kind of hero. Jesus. I’m just trying to keep in the back of my mind that if they can him for whatever reason, chances are we will find someone who is at least as successful. Maybe the next coach won’t lose 3 coordinators and 20 players to the portal. Maybe even one day we will be able to have a few Oline recruits sign with us in one class. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all I know, this has been something that's been in a slow burn and got outed by a media guy looking to get hits, a PTB looking to make headlines, or someone in the Harsin camp looking to have it play out in the public. I legit don't know but, like I said, if it's a real investigation that's only recently become public I'd rather it be done right vs fast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this doesn’t drag out too much longer I don’t think we look bad in this. Harsin looks bad. Auburn is asking questions about why people are leaving in droves, including coordinators. All Harsin is doing is saying he’s on vacation and calling Thamel to bitch about us. We kinda look proactive in handling a situation that could get a lot worse if left alone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnfaithful72 125 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Harsin is out of the country on a previously scheduled vacation and slated to return Wednesday. SEC head coaches are slated to meet in person in Birmingham, Alabama, on Thursday, which would potentially be Harsin's first formal public appearance upon return from his vacation.

I would imagine it started as soon as Mason looked for another job. Davis not even showing up only exacerbated it. And the guy wonders why he can’t get an OC contract numbers. He probably knew why all along. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

provibe 261 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 1 hour ago, rockfordpi said: It has not for UT, and apparently many fanatics and boosters will not be happy until they get us on the UT plan. But, wait, the next hire is going to be a blockbuster, the next Saban, and all this will end. Wait, the AD fell short, he was weak and incompetent because he could not get the big name coach the fanatics just knew was itching to jump into this dumpster fire (ignore for the moment all the lesser coaches that said no to AU) and the AD should have hired him. Now we have to fire the AD because he failed to deliver. So, now we have to go to the boosters to raise money to buyout ANOTHER 20 million contract. Now, the boosters, getting tired of having to shell out millions to replace coaches, shamelessly want some input into who the new coach will be. Can you imagine the GAUL of that? Just because they are constantly asked to contribute millions to buy out bad coaches, they think they should have some say as to who the next coach will be. Don't they know they are supposed to sit down, shut up, and write the checks and let the fans, the AD, and other experts hire and fire coaches. Now, take a trip back to the good old days when the head coach (namely Pat Dye) was hired by and reported not to the president, but directly to the BOT. Not sure how we come out worse, letting the Boosters hire the coach or the AD. At this point, I think our best shot would just be to throw a dart (well, I mean other than letting the fanatics on the boards hire and fire coaches based on a poll in the forum) PLEASEEEEE don’t let any one on this forum have ANY say in who our next coach will be!!!!! . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
