Coaches always say they are staying even if they aren’t. I’ll say this though. If we missed out on Lane, better have better back up plan than Freeze. A large percentage of the fan base is opposed to him on moral grounds. He’d have similar issues to Harsin winning over the fans. Let’s book a dollar bet he doesn’t come?

Hell Freeze will probably turn us down. This is the process every time. We are getting a big name hire. Oh wait Auburn didn’t want him they wanted a 5-19 coach instead. The process is the same every time, never get your hopes up and you’ll never be let down with Auburn. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I am intrigued to see what he could do with the likes of RA. Just so ready to have an official HC lol. Amen The first year could be a rough one, our fan base needs to be patient. If we see immediate improvement with the portal and recruiting, the wins still may be a season or so away, Im not sure if people understand how bad a shape Harsin left us 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does consistently field championship teams. He generally only hangs around for a few years, but he hires staff that can take over and carry his success forward. And, to my knowledge, has no history of being a pimp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuberville's Ole Miss team had not been ranked 11th in the country and then proceeded to lose 4 of the last 5 games prior to him being hired. That was really not good and in my opinion, sealed the deal on Auburn NOT hiring Kiffin. I think prior to that he was absolutely the guy Auburn was going after 100%.

I have consistently argued for Auburn to pursue excellence, and to hire a coach who will build a juggernaut, not bounce us off the bottom into mediocrity.

FASTCOMPANY 394 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I just want to know what makes LK so much better than HF?! From my view point it's a wash. We've ALL done or said some irreparable things in our past. HF has a weakness for beautiful women. What able membered man doesn't?! We're trying to replace Brian Harsin, not Chette Williams! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamZero77 1,965 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Tbh, our next coach probably hasn't been mentioned. If you keep up with coaching searches in the SEC, Lane Kiffin and Hugh Freeze are on EVERY schools "supposed" list. It makes sense if you're a podcast guy or journalist. Both can coach and put up points. One moves around ALOT and the other is a former SEC coach that beat Saban 2 times and is dying to rebuild his image. Both names are sure to generate buzz. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not had a perfect season at Liberty, but I think what he has done at Liberty in this short time has been really good. Yes he has had bad Ls too. He wants to be here. Our Rivals know what type of coach he can be. He fits the boxes behind the scenes that Auburn people like (I hate that talk). With all the right pieces moving forward, and Freeze work ethic, this can be amazing. I also understand that people are disappointed and will need a wait and see approach. I hope the fans, if Freeze is named coach, give him some benefit of a doubt. Also, he for sure would keep caddy. Great post. 1 hour ago, au302 said: It's a divisive hire, at best. I think he'd win, but the "family" will divide once again after Caddy brought us together for the first time in years Winning cures all. There is no hire that would not have been divisive that was realistic. Freeze has been my number 1 for the most part since before Harsin was fired...there was a brief moment I wanted Sanders over him, but I think Hugh is the safer bet of him, Kiffin, and Sanders. I love the hire. He has proof of concept. He is hungry for redemption. And with proper alignment, NIL, our new FOF, I think Brother Hugh can get us back to being a title contender. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDub 12,003 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I get it. Y'all want to win. Seriously I do understand that. I do too. But not with him.

Matter of fact, I feel safer with Hugh because his gameday coaching isn't crazy like Kiffins with all the analytics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never understood pulling for your school to lose regardless of your personal feelings. To each his own I guess. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
