That is the only thing that arson Harsin said or did correctly before he completely torched Auburn. Worst. Hire. Ever. Ever. but I digress. We are in the middle of a rebuild, and it is going to take a few years because of arson. Edited November 28, 2022 by gr82b4au 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they turn out to be right, they have no more inside info than this board…and I sure didn’t see Kiffin announced today so.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,781 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 My thinking is that if Freeze were to be the guy it would have been announced today. I'm hoping that if the Johnson guy is the choice that it will be announced soon. Some or most of the current staff will be retained to recruit and Johnson can then complete his obligation with the Eagles before he heads to Auburn. That's my pipe dream anyway. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aujohnson 373 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 If it’s Johnson I hope we get some amazing recruiting news or portal news very quickly cause there just isn’t enough there to get super excited about otherwise, at least to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our current staff is working on recruits. A name, any qualified name, will give them something more to work with. I do think we need to have the next head coach in place before the start of the early signing period and the start of the portal period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arein0 1,109 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) Can someone help me out with this? I dont understand why everyone is constantly infatuated with Oregon's Head Coach. Here are the last 2 coaches that left for other jobs, both were "Huge gets": Willie Taggart goes to FSU and turns out to be a bust Cristobal goes to Miami this year and they have a horrible year ($8M for 5-7). His record as a head coach is 67-67. Edited November 28, 2022 by arein0 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His record as a head coach is 67-67. I think it is centered around the fact Georgia high school coaches think highly of him. As in they are less likely to stand in the way when a recruit wants to go to Auburn due to the respect they have for Lanning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your pipe dreams would be nightmares for some of us. If the only options were Freeze and Johnson, then I could get on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well let them get it out of their systems. I certainly can't stop them, but I will have a much lower opinion of them. I'm sure they'll be torn up about that. 😄 It would be the stupidest hire that Auburn has made in my lifetime. It's amazing that men with so much intelligence in some particular areas completely lack any sense whatsoever in others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being very successful in one area leads people to follow their hunches in areas they know nothing about. A form of confirmation bias, I think. Plus, some people just have to learn their lessons the hard way. I wonder if not getting their way on the last hire means they'll push for Ho Ho Hugh no matter what. Based on rumors, of course. I really have no idea what thoughts are banging around in the minds of the wealthy and powerful movers and shakers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it works, extend his contract and give him raises. If it doesn’t, he’ll leave the team stocked with talent. Not like the last 2 coaches. I'm not sure that's our best option, but it is a viable option. We need somebody in place fast, or we can flush another recruiting/portal season. We just can't afford that.

ToomersRevenge 284 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Caddy actually has some staff showing improvements. Our play calling hasn’t been terrible the last 4 games. Idk what player development would look like but he would potentially only need to replace those who left if the remaining wanted to stay. If friend moved to OC since I guess he’s the play caller then we could hire a decent OL coach. Highly unlikely but possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see where you're going but I'm not really basing that opinion on his results in a first year at Oregon, would have been a good hire even straight out of being Kirby's DC for a couple years along with his recruiting skills. A year of HC experience only helps that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caleb1633 1,421 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Forgive my pessimism, but this is about the 10th time I’ve experienced internet pandemonium surrounding the hiring of an Auburn HC or coordinator, and I can count on one finger all the times it’s been a splash hire and not a letdown (Muschamp). I hope this time is different, but historical trends suggest our power brokers will give us another pitiful attempt at resurrecting Pat Dye, only to have us going through internet pandemonium again in a few years.
