LPTiger 5,494 Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 It is so nice to observe how the roll out of our new OC has gone... At the same time of the announcement, we have substantive quotes praising the hire from two of the most respected and accomplished men in the NFL in Pete Carroll and Russ Wilson. Well done AU!!! 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaba4ever 112 Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Tom Brady talked up Scott Loeffler too, so while I appreciate their quotes, I'm putting zero stock into anything until I see it on the field. 8 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CHICAGO aUBIE 17 Posted December 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 18, 2021 First a professionally orchestrated signing day and now a coaching hire presented with the same conscientious attention to detail. This is a new Auburn communication attitude and one needed for awhile. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 I said this on ESD and I’ll say it again: The entire football operations staff is INTENTIONAL with everything that they do.

This is accurate as far as the Loeftty hire. cautious optimism is my take as well. I’m excited about the new blood though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsin is a man with a vision, Chizik, not so much. Time will tell if you are right, but no OC was going to succeed in 2012 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleEye67 1,948 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 There is a definite plan, a vision, a direction this program is going that has been sadly absent the last few years. I applaud the lack of drift now, and am excited to see what 2022 brings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying I'll believe it when I see it. I'm hopeful, I just don't want to get my hopes up then experience that fall again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From videos, quotes, player interactions, etc. It is a welcome sight. It's been evident from the moment they got here. Major changes in how they and the support staff approach social media. And there were reports going back to the very first on campus visits that recruits were able to take that everything was significantly more organized and professional. And they've done it without sacrificing the "family" vibe. (Harsin brands it as "person over player", which is possibly another improvement.) I love that they've finally blown apart this silly "bama's all business but we're fambly" idea that maintains the two as mutually exclusive. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loeffler had a solid resume before coming to AU. I also don’t really think the blame of 2012 can be placed on Loeffler….the locker room was a mess, the head coach had lost this team, and he tried to plug Loeffler’s system in with Malzhan’s players which was a very bad fit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could not watch Auburn football without Hope, though, tempered with some reality based expectations. This year’s Iron Bowl is a good example of that. Reality based expectations were low but hoped they would play better than they have all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyeCampAlum 335 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Even with a new QB and presumably shaky OL, we're gonna see whether this new culture is working real quick next fall. I'm hopeful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say I wasn't happy about the hire. I am. I didn't say I thought it was a bust. I don't. I think it's a good hire actually. I'm just saying that, while I appreciate their sentiments, I will appreciate the product I see on the field more. Good day. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. That was a particularly bad situation for him to step into. I'm just saying...trust but verify. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
