Popular Post AUnChas 14 Posted February 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2022 War Eagle All! I don't post much but thought I could jump in with my 1 cent. Probably not worth even that, ha. I have a friend close to au athletics. I don't ask specific Qs about programs or people. I honor our friendship too much. But we do chat about general state of things. What I know that isn't reflected on this site very much is that its not accurate to say (and maybe not fair depending on your perspective) to interpret this as a recent set of events where "PTB" are creating this situation in some form. It's has a much longer window (where the mistakes have piled up) than what we are seeing in the last couple days. From my understanding, what players are saying is mostly accurate (both sides). Harsin is all about winning football games. He has respect as a coach. On flip side he doesn't manage relationships at all. There is a complete disconnect to building "men" and guiding their future in life -- literally and in context of their personal background. There is not an investment there. In addition, he has not engaged in understanding AU history or football history. Not engaged with high schools and coaches. That I know. In my opinion now, there is an arrogance on top of it all about his coaching ability. He is a good football coach, but this is the SEC. There are great coaches everywhere. Add to it the mass exodus of people, and legal has been involved for weeks (as they should when ANY person has this many people leaving AND your paying a lot of $ to some of those to leave) on top of a bad season, and this is all puts him and the University in a tough spot. This is where the BOT is evaluating all of this at this point. The best coaches I had always coached from love. They care about you first and foremost. Then, they were hard and demanded excellence. I think Harsin skips the first part and he will pay for it, because at Au, we care deeply about our place, history and people around us, with with sports as an integral part of that. There is little disagreement on that front amongst us -- Fans, BOT, players, former players and Boosters. Unfortunately for him, he didn't understand that.

Failure to go to class, hiring hookers....that will resonate with so many parents of recruits. If you can be fired for being an a**, lots of people should be dusting off their resumes. Just saying😉 If Coach Harsin is fired for a real cause then we can get someone hopefully that hasn't coached at Arkansas State, just to be different and try something new. As much as I hated Deion when he played, he would have the optics to pull us out of this before the next millennium, Freeze would not. The hypocrisy alone... It's mainly paying players. That's legal now. He was just ahead of the times 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyAU 3,643 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Lots of you guys high on Deion. I realize he'd be a big name and would bring in some big recruits, but there's no telling how good or bad of a HC he would be, and he'd likely jump to FSU as soon as humanly possible. He doesn't have much of a resume. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aublue88 145 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Okay, let's say for whatever reason Coach Harsin takes the buyout and who could blame him, how is everyone going to react to Kevin Steele as our new coach IF he is the one brought in immediately?
