Gotta remember that Houston Nutt's attorney's requested Freeze's phone records through FOIA for a tiny little snippet of time, and they found a number for the escort service. That was all that was made public. Ole Miss investigated and found a pattern of personal misconduct. That was their mistake right there. They should have Bama's internal investigation personnel. They would have found nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I’ve said, the national media is starting to recognize that Deion is the real deal. And this isn’t the first national writer to say that Deion and Auburn would be the perfect fit. Unfortunately I think Auburn is too scared and stupid to see that he is the obvious choice… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnatl1 6,255 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Deion has over 1.3 million twitter followers now? If he had Auburn as a national platform. It’d be… epic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excluding Harsin, who again was hired by a rogue AD, Auburn has always gone with someone who has had Auburn ties or is a safe choice.

Predators always do. He would have no fear of Saban or Kirby. None. Or our admin….. None. If you bring in someone like that you have to accept that you’re not hiring him, you’re unleashing him. And brace from the ride. Ps I love rides!! Edited October 14, 2022 by auburnatl1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I wish I had that kind of pull. I will say that I know for a fact that some prominent people are backing Deion. As I’ve said before though, there’s no official list because we have no AD. Dr. Roberts has a process. Harsin will get fired first, then we’ll hire an AD, who will be the one who hires our next coach. That’s why I don’t take any of these lists you read seriously. No one knows who we will interview or even be a candidate because we haven’t even hired our AD… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of exposure he would bring to Auburn would be unparalleled. I love Bruce, but he would be a tiny blip compared to what Deion would bring here when it comes to social media and promoting Auburn… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based of PAM's post (please please please don't be McGlynn--unfortunately the news out of Utah State this week might hurt Hartwell's chances), it's quite possible that the AD search puts us behind the 8ball on coaching candidates.

And I also think you could say that about any of the other coaches being mentioned. t least with Deion we would be talked about non stop and have a loaded roster even if he did flame out. You and others need to do some research and watch some of his social media.

He also landed one huge nationally sought recruit. What Sanders has to sell at JSU, which is support/upgrade HBCUs will not be a sales pitch at Auburn. Here he'll have to bump heads with the top guys in the country on 40+ prospects every year, not just one guy. Can he do that? Maybe, maybe not. I don't hate the idea of hiring him but I think he's got just as much risk tied to him as the other candidates do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever the hell that means. But better than now. But I believe Deion is different and will involve accepting a big personality and risks. Bottom line: IMO if AU fans truly want to go to an elite level. Deion is a unique opportunity. And it won’t come again. My 2 cents.
