DAG 34,036 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 1 minute ago, AuCivilEng1 said: I’m just wondering. This morning you were alluding the the fact that you thought that maybe the Harsin firing wasn’t as eminent as we all though 3 days ago. I was just wondering if you were back to thinking it was more likely. I don’t think it is imminent the longer this pause keeps happening. Yesterday I for sure thought it would happen soon with PTB saying freeze then I heard other speculation from a few trusted posters haha. So it seems like it is all contradictory information. That’s why I was like hold up on celebrating freeze lol. I think this buy out is much bigger than people thought would be an issue even for people who can’t stand CBH (supposedly). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am giving them the benefit of a doubt that they have a plan but there is some serious concern about the buy out. I believe they want Freeze, but calling his agent and asking if there if interest is different than saying "Freeze is getting hired". Most agents worth their salt will say "Sure, so and so has interest" just to leverage a raise or contract extension. The issue is the people who we put in charge of hiring a new HC doesn't understand this. Common sense says that you're right...the longer this was drug out, the higher the chances Harsin stays for at least '22. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the silence is because there are currently negotiations/Auburn setting up the coaching structure going forward (because we will have an interim IMO, even if just briefly) with them trying to determine what happens to this staff. Can we leave the Boise guys in place? What power structure keeps the most guys out of the portal? Lots of things to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcware 1,365 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 9 minutes ago, DAG said: yep. I think the hold up is this buy out and if they can get him to drive it down he is gone but I don’t see why CBH would ever do that. If that is the case , it probably won’t be any type of firing this year. I am passed the idea of cause to fire. Do you think it’s possible that Harsin has massive support from current players? With players having so much freedom to leave at anytime and play elsewhere, what if a majority of the team said we are out if you fire Harsin. I know we have lost a ton of guys already but we really couldn’t afford to lose a lot more. I don’t know, I thought he was gone for sure yesterday but if he survives today, I think we play 2022 with CBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a call from a friend in the President's office saying it was done but didn't say when it would be announced. I was just walking out the door for a doctor's app't when I got the call. I rushed to make the post so I wouldn't be late for the app't. In retrospect I should have waited until I got back home. Lesson learned and I won't say any more about it until we see an announcement.
