gr82b4au 5,583 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Do you also fire the OC and DC at the same time? Usually the OC or the DC would take over, but since they are all besties, it may be a little awkward. and if we did fire all 3 we would be down 3 coaches.

Gowebb11 9,945 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We have plenty of staff personnel like Trovon Reed and other analyst who can fill in. Not optimal but might actually help the team. All 4 teams (GT, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and ASU) with interim staffs won yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I just listened to Cole Cubelic talk about what the players want, cause he actually went through a mid season coaching change. I'm backing off the fire him now stuff because of what he said. The players should be all that matters at this point, and while they may be bad at some positions, they haven't quit. I'm not sure what to do, but I know what he says the players think, about the coaches and us as fans. I'm gonna be more patient than I thought possible before I heard him.

Systems 177 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 War Eagle | What-If Scenario: 09/25/2022 Generalized Topics and Commonly-Held Fan Opinion to Support a Mid-Season Coaching Change Insufficient Understanding of Recruiting the SEC Athelete Unimpressive Local, Regional Coaching Development & Promotion Lack of Clear Team Identify, Program Direction Underperform: Navigating the Transfer Portal Underperform: Making the Most of the NIL Relative Underperform: Player Health, Strength, Conditioning, and Nutrition Acceptable Player Academic Preparation Insufficent Gameday Gameplan Counterproductive Play-Call Timing Lack of In-Game or Halftime Adjustments Suspect Clock Management Uncomfortable Handling the Spotlight of Success Ambiguous Direction for Overcoming Adversity Generalized Will to Win Getting Blown-Out, Embarassed at Home on ESPN Possibly Losing to All Our Rivals in a Single Year Probably going 4-8 Recruiting Relationships are At Risk Recruiting Class & Rank Continue to Underperform If Auburn decides to part ways with Head Football Coach Bryan Harsin before the end of the season, he may not be the only coach leaving the program so we'll need to identify those coaching positions to change as well as to select an interim Head Coach and Staff. We'll also need Bobby L. and Jimmy R. to handle the financing - but that's a topic for another thread. Based on the above generalized topics, this what/if scenario indicates the following 6 coaching positions requiring mid-season change. Dismissed coaches would be paid according to their current contract or mutual agreement, of course. OFFENSIVE DISMISSALS HC Bryan Harsin OC Eric Kiesau OL Will Friend TE Brad Bedell DEFENSIVE DISMISSALS DC Jeff Schmedding DL Jimmy Brumbaugh Coaching position vacancies would be filled from the existing pool of coaching resources already on staff at Auburn. The Coaching Talent Aquisation Strategy will be promotion from within, reorganization of roles, consolidation of duties, and opportunities for additional accountability and professional development. To offset risk of coaching attrition, this interim staff contract to be in place for a minimum pay period of 6 months, regardless, or unless longer term agreements are reached and do not conflict. So, the research indicates: Auburn Football Coaching Staff is actually loaded with regional coaching talent and experience: Assistant Coaches, Special Analysts, Graduate Assistants, Interns, Strength & Conditioning, on and on - Previous O/D Coordinators, Previous Assistant Head Coaches, NFL Coaching Experience, Grass-Roots Player Recruiting Relationships in and around the South. Lot's of qualified coaches who are prepared, ready and set to make the most of the upcoming coaching opportunities. --- What-If Auburn Football Releases HC Bryan Harsin, Mid-Season --- Interim Head Coach: Zac Etheridge (Bryan Harsin Out) Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks: Mike Hartline (Current Offensive Analyst, Eric Kiesau Out) Offensive Line: Kendall Simmons (Current Offensive Analyst, Will Friend Out) Running Backs: Carnell Williams (No Change) Tight Ends: Joe Bernardi (Current Offensive Analyst, Brad Bedell Out) Wide Receivers: Ike Hilliard (No Change) Wide Receivers, Offensive Analyst: David Whitlow (Current Graduate Assistant, Offense) Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers: JC Sherritt (Current Defensive Analyst, Jeff Schmedding Out) Defensive Line/Edge Linebackers/Assistant Head Coach: Roc Bellantoni (Jimmy Brumbaugh Out) Linebackers: Christian Robinson (No Change) Secondary: Jeremiah Wilson (Current Defensive Analyst, Zac Etheridge to Interim Head Coach) Secondary, Defensive Analyst: Ty Holder (No Change) Special Teams Coordinator: Eric Sachse (Current Special Teams Analyst, Roc Bellantoni to Defensive Line) Plus, there's a ton of other Directors, Support Staff and Team Leads who are probably working right now to make Auburn and Auburn Football the special place we love and know it to be; and while I can't mention everyone by name: thank you. We appreciate what you do. Enjoy. Opine. Refute. Be well. Stay safe. War Eagle!

I don't see any assistants being fired midseason, even if Harsin is. It just doesn't happen that way and the hand-wringing about it is baseless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
