It appears the long lasting impact of 2 years of Covid is lower IQ's. And Alas, I have contributed.... I think my IQ was lowered during the austudnt23 thread and hasn't recovered, it's why I am here I think. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't feel like his dance w Saban was over yet and plus I thought he hired a solid staff year after year with the primary exception of Chad Morris.. Lot's of auburn guys and had us recruiting well enough to allow us to pop once every three years or so and that to me is very good in the sec west. Is what it is tho.. It was the best of times it was the worst of times at auburn during his tenure. I wish Harsin the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh, any other poster I wouldn't put much creedence to this statement but coming from you this is like a steel dagger. Such an Auburn thing to do, screw that up at the last minute. Honestly, imo, I don't understand why they would even think forcing a HC to back out of a championship game is the right call. It's pretty inconsiderate/unreasonable and if the HC agrees a) that leaves a bad taste in his mouth right at the start of his tenure AND b) a HC that would agree to that is a little sleazy if you ask me. If I am Cristobol and Smart in those situations, I do the same thing. It's like a wealthy person that thinks they can buy everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which IMO for a DC/OC it qualifies as a the same situation for a HC in a conference championship game imo. Now a DC or OC before a conference championship game, I don't see as big of an issue.

Unlike Saban who's coordinators keep getting hired away for better jobs; his were being fired due to poor performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburn's actual finish, 3rd place in the West, isn't something that adds credence to a Gus bashing. I think we were very much together behind Harsin, then MSU happened and the wheels started coming off. If that makes you feel better about yourself👌 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I agree with this. However it was time for him to go. Our program and talent were on a decline the last few years. Will Harsin get it done? Not so sure. We will find out on signing day.

Dan-0 479 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Gus had eight years. He blew a Natty in his first year. Chiz and Orgeron both won a Natty and were fired two years later. However, it remains to be seen if Harsin was the right hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
