I can’t answer for original poster, but at this point with us it makes total sense even when it doesn’t. That wasn't the original point though he said it like the article said it was true. 😒 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnatl1 6,206 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) Any idiot could be our AD. Just be able to speak in.complete sentences and shower. All they have to do is read our posts hourly and make all their decisions based on our polls. Dirt cheap and will be the best in sports. Pull the trigger and give the new “AD” an AUfamily login.

After the media's Auburn-bashing media blather when Pearl was hired, the BOT apparently embarked on a worthy mission to change Auburn's unfair reputation (based on lazy media research) as a cheating institution. (The last time AU football ran afoul of the NCAA was 1992 - EXTRAORDINARY for a top tier program). BOT hired squeeky clean Harsin when nobody had HEARD of NIL so he unfortunately spent Fall of '21 rejecting NIL's counterintuitive "buying players is legal now" premise (exit his depth players and up & commer Mason). McGlyn apparently believes compliance & winning formulas are mutually exclusive and his, er, promotion is just a continuation of the BOT's uphill "Auburn reputation" crusade against the Thalmels, Fordes & ESPNs. According to JGT, McGlynn was directly responsible for a lot of the FUD that shaped Harsin's view on the utilization of NIL and has been a hold up in AU embracing a collective. I believe he would be a horrible hire at the juncture we're at and would negatively impact our trajectory going forward. He has never realized that in this day and age the Compliance departments sole responsibility is providing plausible deniability.

I can still hope that he was just hired as his assistant to be in place to move up when McGlynn moves on though. 😀 Edited October 6, 2022 by dyehardfanAU 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUx 3,213 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Backfill in some way for McGlynn. Secure commitment from objective AD. Have McGlynn fire Harsin(so new guy (or gal) can start fresh). Hire new perm AD. Hire new HC. And in 9 angst-free months magically be an SECW contender. Everybody happy. Just that simple. /sarc/just the last 3 sentences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is research what he did at Ole Miss and what he did this past summer. DMing a sexual abuse victim and trying to intimidate her is beyond pathetic and perverted. He has no morals and has not learned anything since he left Ole Miss. He’s at the perfect place for him, a sham of a university who hides behind a religion to mask their true identity… 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Auburn to win championships as well. However, there comes a point where you have to draw a line about morality and ethics and Freeze is where I draw the line. He is a sick and scumbag of a human being who has no remorse for his actions. He literally DM’d a sexual abuse victim this past summer at Liberty University who was suing the university. I’m sorry, no way in hell could I ever be proud of Auburn and root for them if we ever hired that scumbag. So you and others who want Freeze have a severe lack of judgment when it comes to character and have no standards, and that’s sad. Also, speaking purely football, Freeze is literally Gus 2.0. Actually, Gus was 3-1 against Hugh but because Freeze beat UAT twice the Freeze fan club slobber all over him. You guys completely gloss over how he had so many inexplicable losses to overmatched teams and had 1 10 win season WHILE HE CHEATING! I mean come on, as much as people dog Gus, he was way more successful than Freeze, and I’m glad we got rid of Gus. So, in summary, he’s a lousy human being on top of being a very mediocre coach. So, yea, I have standards for both a human and a football coach, unlike many who blindly want him just because he beat UAT twice. You guys do realize there are more teams than UAT right? If that’s your criteria, might as well just rehire Gus, at least he’s a decent guy with a better resume… 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburnguy101 325 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I’ll add this as well: I would still not want him because of his continued lack of remorse and responsibility for his despicable actions, however, I would at least understand the obsession on the football side of Freeze had won a couple of SEC championships and played for a national title or at least was a contender. That would at least make some sense, but damn, he cheated the whole time and his best team still lost 3 games with all of that talent. Again, I could name 10 coaches off the top of my head that are better than him. Ask yourself this too. Why are no other schools going after him? Read other school’s boards and not one of them ever mention Freeze. It always perplexes me how many Auburn fans latch on these loser coaches and believe that we’re seeing something that no one else in college football sees when in reality everyone knows Freeze is mediocre and a trash person… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is he a better HC than Hugh Freeze? and I like Deion, btw Luke Fickell is not coming here. Again another ridiculous name. Also made his chops in the midwest. No association to the south which is a major crying point for the current coach right now? Jeff Grimes? What is Jeff Grimes Head coaching record? Demeco Ryans? What is his coaching record? He has never even coached in the college football ranks. Mark Stoops. Yes Lance Leipold? Based on what? And I am a Wisconsin guy. You really think Kyle Wittingham is leaving Utah to come to Auburn? You might as well add Lincoln Riley, Jim Harbaurgh and Ryan Day to the mix. Again, you are just talking out of your ass.

You literally asked me who I thought we could get. Throw money at those guys and they would come. Cristobal was coming here last search before we screwed that up. Brian Kelly was never thought to leave Notre Dame before LSU threw all that money his way. Again, it’s realistic if we decide to throw money. Also, all of those coaches have better resumes than Freeze. Also, none of them are scumbags like Freeze, so that automatically makes them much better. But you do you guy, support a POS mediocre coach… Edited October 7, 2022 by Auburnguy101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
