I vaguely remember reading a little about it back when it happened, but I had other things going on in life so I wasn't really paying as much attention to it as I typically would. I don't recall any of the details now, though. When he was at FSU, he stopped to insulting Auburn to get recruits. After he came to Auburn, he threw some hissy fit about not being listened to enough and and left. I honestly didn’t love that we hired him the first time given the recruiting tactics he was using. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know for a fact, like heard it ourselves, he was insulting Auburn? Some people twist words and “insulting” could be one of those words. I didn’t here him say it so I don’t necessarily believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our coaches and some high school coaches claimed he was doing a lot of "dissin" Auburn. Did I hear it? No. Do I believe them? Yes. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we as a fan base are mad at a guy for negatively recruiting against his competition? Not one person has given a legitimate reason why he shouldn’t be allowed to be on an Auburn staff. Not one. The same folks who whine and b*tch about Gus are mad that Dameyune whined and b*tched about Gus. Please, someone in the know, enlighten us on what he did that was so bad. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I doubt it's unique to us of course but we can be kind of petty sometimes. Especially when burying the hatchet, in this case, could land us a game-changing commitment. If FSU (speaking of hatchets) hires CDC and Coleman follows him, will anyone still be glad we chose that hill to die on?

Oh you know they will try to spin it. “Coleman had behavior issues and we are better off” That above line sound familiar? It should because we had people advocating for not taking Keon Coleman who btw had 0 drops this season. Zero! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't always agree with Jake Crain (especially on non-sports matters) but he nails it here: I hope we can find a landing spot for Monty of course.

Pretty on brand for you… Elko coached with D Craig for 4 years at ATM. In one of his first actions after getting hired, Elko announced Craig would not remain on staff. To my knowledge he has not addressed any of the other current coaches. Maybe Craig stole his lunch out of the fridge one day, who knows? But, if I am a new head coach and I have a guy already on staff who is a great coach, I will find a place for them. I would tend to trust the evaluation of the guy who has $10MM in incentives to win. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hell of a recruiter but does not get the most out of the talent he coaches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodford 3,677 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 All blame should be placed on Jimbo. He had all that talent and did nothing with it. He is Gus+. He has a title and recruits better but they’re the same coach to an extent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they (like our receivers) don't even run the proper routes. If play calls for a 10 yard and out route, they run 7 or 8 yards or even 12.
