I for one could care a less about Dabo and would love for him to NOT be the coach at Auburn

Well I certainly hope we play Alabama every year as the final game of the year. Some traditions should be untouchable.

Luke Fickell and James Franklin are the only names I can think of that haven't really been talked about much who could conceivably be in the mix.

Is sean payton like our version of Tennessee's Gruden but w even less connections to the program? I would imagine they would vote for carnell if a team vote came up.

Maybe he would be the perfectcoach post saban for the bammers then

That is funny because bama fans on twitter swear up and down that Kiffins deepest desire is to coach bama post Saban while ole miss fans swear his greatest desire is to be a nfl coach again like these people are best friends w him and know exactly what he aspires to.

It may be meaningless but one would have to imagine he is going to have to make some kind of statement and to not make a statement is sort of making a statement. His team has to be wondering, recruits, journalists and so forth.

What does it say that Kiffin has not denied or affirmed the rumors over the past 48 hours like other coaches have done (or at least Lanning has). Kiffin lives on Twitter and Twitters been ablaze and yet there is no real "there, there" one way or the other. Either angling for money from ole miss or legitimately ironing out contract details in a move to the plains?

He did and interestingly enough he also beat Kiffin.

Can I nominate myself for most conspiratorial?

It'd be great if he could just return to ole miss and we take Lane off their hands Unless of course youre talking about scott frost (kidding)

Evil? Paranoid? Malevolent group? No, never said or implied that. It takes a naive person to think this stuff just sparks up out of nowhere for no reason at all. It is interesting that this would come out when it did and I am plumbing the possibilities as to why it did. That is all.

Why is this a thing right now? "possible verbal commit but won't know anything till after the iron bowl?" Feels like an attempt by the ptb to redirect the herd towards a new narrative for some reason. Feels like a controlled and orchestrated redirect. Our ptb's are really good at utilizing certain journalist to spark a fire on twitter to accomplish this means as we saw w the Harsin deal in the off season. No big deal, just sort of interesting to me.

James Franklin would have to be a fool -- penn state has to be the dream of all dreams for a coach because thats a program that keeps coaches for life w minimal turnover. I was on the plane seated next to him going to pasadena in 2013 and I must say, he oozes charisma but I would be shocked if he came. Fleck? No thanks. I hope Kiffin isnt a smoke screen

Oh yes i know that, im not sure if you saw my post on the page prior to this page or not but maybe that also was worded poorly, anyhow -- thanks!

I am not sure that I am understanding the point youre making? I am just guessing about possible info release tomorrow and why that could be.

Yeah like Derrick Brown and some others tweeting about "put some respect on his name, remove the tag!" refferring to carnell being named the head coach. Im just guessing as i am not an eagle nester unfortunately. Im probably wrong.

Wonder if all the fires starting from various former players about "removing the tag" is causing the higher ups to try and do a controlled release of some info to preempt and redirect the narrative? I guess i will have to wait and see.

Depends on what coaches are legitimately in play. If all the tier 1 options are saying hell no and we are talking random tier 2 scrubs that might be good or might not and we go on and win out to close the year -- i hope the admin finds themselves in a good ole game of pickleball

Not to mention it should have just been posted in the official game thread but some people, and this happens every saturday, turn a low level comment in to an entire thread because they just HAVE to be seen and heard

I think you misspelled "Mikey" as "many"

Yeah texas a and m went to tuscaloosa and got the brakes beat off them and had no shot plus rivalry games betweem auburn and alabama don't trend towards nutty things happening ever. How in the world?

So he didnt get fired for smashing Sabans daughter the rumor mill ran w years ago? Because as a potential Auburn coach that would be a much more exciting possibility to think about the deep hatred saban would have for the man.

I agree

Anyone have a link to takeo spikes before the game like on twitter or anything? I love that dude and heard he had a little moment on air prior to the game starting.
