Agree that he shouldn’t do that, especially in that circumstance. Talking about football to people that you are pretty sure want to hear from you is what responsible leaders would do. I would go with Grimes instead if possible to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been at UGA this year and probably will interview really well. I didn't include Muschamp for various reasons, he is from my hometown in Georgia, although *cough* I'm a little older, lol. I really like his work as a DC but he really has struggled as a HC and at least for me I'm not sure the fanbase would be overjoyed with the hire. He can recruit but not sure how many times you give someone another HC opportunity, I really would prefer Grimes/Freeze over Muschamp but thats just me.

Obviously, there are outliers, but generally it's true. Grimes is Pittman at Arky with panache. He is very adept and smooth with power and money and can read and work a room beautifully. Also, he has a substantial network to pull from. Here is his Baylor profile. Pay specific attention to his offensive numbers and recruiting prowess. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw== Was very close to voting for him initially.

Who would be guaranteed to fix the D? And who would be really good at possibly doing both? Also,this is what a lot of us were saying since 2015-16 That change might not be perfect but it will be better than what we have now. Do not let perfect be the enemy of good...especially when what you have is the opposite of good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icanthearyou 4,464 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 The most compelling argument to this point is undoubtedly: Pittman with panache. (went back to see who to credit,,, Bird,,, he had to have gotten it from Golf, he could not come up with that himself) We need panache. If we had panache and, we could get a little mojo, then we would have swagger. Without panache, we're just kidding ourselves. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArTiger 37 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 You guys need to go to YouTube and watch the latest interview Deion gave. You will change your mind about him. He gives all the credit to his great NFL coaching staff! He is not a loose cannon. He’s very serious! Auburn has No identity. He would come in with tremendous excitement and recruits will flock to him. He will blow Kiffen, Hughes and Stoops out of the water!!! If we miss on him you guys will be sorry. Don’t be short sighted. He is going to a major University!!! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aucanucktiger 1,805 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Hmmm, none of the above. Maybe Harsin with an organized & funded NIL? To be clear, he's as guilty as anybody at Auburn for that just getting under way - last winter the man told everybody that would listen he didnt "believe" in the NIL. Nevertheless, he can get the job done IMO with NIL and a couple better assistants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve said it for awhile but I’ll say it again- he’s (Grimes) my number one. Would be a guy that laid a foundation and set us up for long term success. Not flashy but so much more likely to be a durable solution. He might fail miserably but I would bet otherwise Edited September 23, 2022 by fredst 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
