At this point it’s about recruiting. We need an average QB and average O-line and an average staff. I’ll take anyone who can get that in. Texas and Oklahoma are coming soon and we need a stable base or we are screwed. I’d take consistent Mark Richt seasons at this point just to get us going. Hence why I have finally given in to the “just bring in Neon Deion” crowd. At this point I’d ALMOST cave to Art Briles (I wouldn’t because you have to be a terrible person). Urban Myer isn’t off my list though….The long and short of it is Harsin is tainted goods and needs to go. Recruiting will suffer unless the PTB make a move. How it all pans out I have no clue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Peterson left that program they were loaded and CBH did a great job of maintaining that. This job wasn’t the right situation for him. They overachieved when playing P5 schools, thats the point and what got everyones attention when Peterson was there. I know Harsin's resume looked good, I was completely behind him from day 1 but he's not the right fit. Sad as it is him and his assistants are not capable of even being respectable in this conference, forget about winning. Just getting to respectable is beyond their reach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marginalizing his influence doesn't make sense considering the factors involved. I am not marginalizing crap. The insiders literally came in here and said there was a panel involved in his hiring. In fact some of them literally said AG just sat there doing the interview process. People literally claimed he wasn't showing up for work and they bought in the general in house 100 percent to oversee operations. Now all of a sudden he has this huge sphere of influence. I am just tired of you guys changing narratives. Pick a narrative and freaking stick with it. This is not an AG problem. This is not even a CBH problem. This is an Auburn PROBLEM. Before AG, it was the previous ADs fault. Now we got a new guy, who supposedly sucks too. Stop pointing fingers at everyone else. Auburn needs to point their fingers at Auburn.

Brandon Marcello @bmarcello #Auburn athletics director Allen Greene said he first met Bryan Harsin five years ago. Their first conversation occurred in a pool. "Don't ask why," he jokes.

johnnyAU 3,668 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) Peterson was a helluva coach and built that program. I like Harsin's attitude, but right now the product he's putting product on the field that would struggle to take 2 out of 3 from Vanderbilt. They have no offensive identity, can't protect the QB and can't pressure the opponent's QB. Lots of long days ahead.

They can come in and throw the bomb all day against a big team because there is nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I mean 6-3, then throw in the three gimme games and we’re 9-3? It has definitely gone downhill since Harsin was hired. Come on now. North Carolina would not have been a "gimme". AU was 6-4, and had the officials made the right call against Arkansas, AU would've been 5-5. Not mentioning the Ole Miss fumble because that could've went either way.

AUfan3333 74 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I have been reading through this thread and have stated that I am all in on Deion. I have read some of us that are not sold because of experience and other things. I agree with some of you that say it’s about the recruiting. I want to expand on what I think makes Deion a great choice. We, Auburn, need a culture change!!! That is what Deion can do. Auburn, and even some of us on this board, have been stagnant for a while now and have just accepted mediocrity. We need life breathed into the program and something exciting to look forward to! This is what Deion can do. Not only being a great recruiter, he can bring in a great staff. You know they say you want to bring in great people to make you look better. That’s what he can do. Change culture and bring excitement to our incredible university, we definitely deserve it at this point!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And while you are at it, play into the hands of those who crave power at the expense of Auburn Football, Harsin has touted discipline and culture change since he got here, and discipline is not what I saw on that field from our Auburn men today. We looked out of position a ton, and we took cheap shots. I ain’t got time for that, and I won’t spend Saturdays watching that crap. I supported Bo Nix all the way up until I saw him chewing the refs’ ears and ESPECIALLY his teammates ears. When I saw him do that stuff, I lost all respect. Now I see our team acting foolish on the field the way they were today? Nope. I can’t support that nonsense. I’ll take a pass on that mess. Auburn Creed means nothing when our guys are getting personal fouls and getting chippy. That’s a discipline issue, which makes it a coaching issue. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
