aubiefifty 18,248 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 and yet allow another coach to keep coaching the oline when our line is absolutely killing us? it makes no sense. and does anyone know if our oline coach is getting help with his job with other coaches or assistants because we keep getting our behind handed to us. i would think after two years we would know all the shifts and that sort of thing but we mostly just look lost. i think it is coaching. so why let cornbread go and keep jimmy? it just makes no sense unless he could not line up another oline coach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU North 164 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Swap the o-line & d-line. It will give the d-line some much needed rest and they sure as hell couldn't do any worse. WDE 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, Bryan Harsin isn't going to be allowed to fire and hire any more coaches. I'm sure that he's well aware that he's gone and that he has no hope. There is no saving this nor are there any magical fixes for him. The "difference" is that last year he was only ~4 games into his tenure and his job/outlook were still set. Right now he's just coaching out however many games they want to keep him around for. There is a pretty big difference there lol. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerman1186 537 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 He replaced his wide receivers coach last year after a couple of games, why doesn't he replace his OL coach after the game this week and let the OL grads assistants coach them the rest of the season....at least it would look like he is 'trying' to address the main issue.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a lame duck coach surrounded by assistants he put in place. Nothing against Caddy or Zac, but I don’t think anybody is retained when a new coach is finally hired. Then again, how long will it be until an AD is hired to inherit a pretty good sports program, football aside of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubiefifty 18,248 Posted October 12, 2022 Author Share Posted October 12, 2022 unless harsin is going to quit coaching all together it is a bad look in my personal opinion. even if he faces a mountain of trouble if he gives up i am pretty sure that is a no no.

With Harsin staring down the barrel of his own firing, Auburn is not going to let him fire an OL coach that they have to pay for, then let him turn him around and hire another coach that they will have to pay for. Even if Harsin were allowed to do so, only a desperate OL coach would look at this situation, then decide to leave their current situation to come coach at Auburn for the next two months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowebb11 9,872 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 CBH and a lot of his his staff have quit coaching. Especially Friend. The product being produced shouts it loud and clear. If they were at least showing signs of being interested in making the team better I would be for keeping them the through the Iron Bowl. They’re not and need to go now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you are concerned for the players more than anything, and I applaud that, but you are seriously grasping at straws here. Assistant coaches sign a contract with Auburn, and as long as Auburn has not terminated that contract, the OL coach is still the OL coach. At this point, Harsin cannot fire or hire anyone. Auburn is not going to approve terminating, or creating new contracts, for anyone, until a decision on Harsin has been formally made. Right now, Auburn wants to escape this debacle without paying any more money than they have to. The futile gesture of firing an OL coach, then promoting or hiring another, would cost Auburn more money. These coaches are all dead men walking, they all know it, and none of them are going to accept more work/stress for free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
