I know this season , things have regressed due to the loss of personnel. That stuff happens. But he consistently has put up gaudy #s offensively from what I can tell. I also want to say HF has been winning with 2nd and 3rd string QBs at Liberty this year. I know he got crap for only winning 8 games with an NFL QB last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butthead 525 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 IMO, Grimes would be a very solid hire. Same ilk as Cristobol last cycle (he is the guy I really wanted last time). I just think Prime has so much more upside. Potentially another BP. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icanthearyou 4,465 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 If you can get Primetime and, you don't hire him,,, it is a colossal mistake. Evaluating/recruiting is everything in today's game. Good coaching can make you competitive but, without the best talent, you cannot get to the playoffs, not from the SEC. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that injuries happen, I honestly do, but I believe outside of 2020 and parts of 2021, his offenses struggled against many of the teams who had a defense.I mean, the last 6 games of last Baylor won not because of their offense but because of their defense. I know his offense is good but I also have a hard time not to think many of his offenses look because they play against no defenses. Also, like I’ve said, he reminds me of Gus where he’s a good offensive coordinator but does it translate to being a head coach and it’s a red flag that he’s been in the coaching business this long and has no head coaching experience. As for Hugh, that’s a non starter for me. On the field, he’s no better than Gus and then off the field, don’t even get me started… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I want to be when I grow up You can be an insider. Go to Auburn right now and start hiding in the bushes at the athletic complex...peek into windows...see who comes in and out. See if you can get in the building behind someone who badges you in and roam the halls listening in on conversations. Report back here with your findings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technique #1. Technique 2 is to see if the money guys have any ex’s on Tinder who’ve got the real AU scoop. Being an insider also means making …sacrifices for the greater good.

So that’s why some feel it’s a bit reminiscent of a JABA hire, and does not move the needle like a Deion Sanders. BINGO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAG 34,050 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 None of the main three, realistically are bad hires on potential alone: HF, JG, DS. However, for each of these coaches , we should stop making them out to be mouth more than their resume says or much worse for that matter. None of these three have proven that they can consistently , sustain a high degree of winning at this level of competition. enticing by DS: polarizing, resources enticing about HF: experience, winner at every level enticing about JG: offensive line guru, coaching acumen, familiarized with Auburn. All have potential to fail majorly or succeed hugely. I would support all of these men 100 % but I am not going to make them out to be more than what they are currently. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbomb 193 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 With the early signing period why wait to remove Harsin. Rumors are that he is no longer on the recruiting trail already, Seems like he has already been soft fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDUBB4AU 5,138 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Prime gets my vote. 100% Grimes would be a typical AU hire. Nothing exciting. Prime gets the people going 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A process we desperately need to create unity among the admin, AD, rest of the PTB, etc. Therefore, he has a plan that he is implementing, at his pace, step by step to get us there. First step is getting the right AD in place, which is supposedly Hartwell, this week. I hope to GOD most of this is right. I'm choosing to believe it is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
