Coach Search: Stock Report 12/3 (Updated 11:30 a.m.)

  • I was part of the program from 82-86 and know all of the committee members except Mac, fairly well and I know them to be men who love Auburn. I trust that they will make the right decision and will support whomever the choice turns out to be. We all may have gone about this in a different way, or we may not have, who knows but we all love Auburn. Let's give these guys the support to do what they believe is best for our great university. War Eagle!

  • I think all of these would be successful hires but think L Fedora would be the best choice. I would definitely prefer him over any of the assistants and most of the more highly sought after head coaches have either apparently bowed out or carry over some issues that would be likely to create a divide in the fan base. I don't know that much about Fedora so can some of you let me know if that he has some real negatives that I am unaware of. I really like the way he was able to handle the UNC situation this year and think that experience would help at getting AU on the right track immediately.

    Looks as if Kirby may be leading as of Mon morning. Positives 1. Has been trained how to run a successful program 2. Understands how saban thinks 3. No pesky buy-out

    Negatives 1. turd 2. even if he beats bama the turd nation will claim partial credit for it 3. no previous HC experience so it will take a season or two to addapt

    you know bama fans so well. i can hear em now. well heck yall had to get one of our coaches so you could beat us. youre welcome

    If we want to win Bobby or Gus only way to fight Saban

    Bobby or Smart; even Ronnie has his doubts about Gus

  • We have a contingent of Auburn supporters who do not want Bobby because of his past. I assume these people are Christians, and in the words of Jesus when confronted with the Jews wanting to stone the woman caught committing adultry, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone". WE NEED COACH PETRINO!!!!!!

    Agreed. The concern/question with Kirby is how much of the defense they run is his (or is at least is now his). If we KNEW that he was in control of the defense then the DC from a school that has been in top 3 in defense for 5 years in a row would obviously be a great hire. But your implied point, we don't know if those X's and O's are his. My assumption, is that most of it is Saban's.

    No, No, No. Xs and Os are KS's. As I said in another post little nicky coaches the db's. That defense is all Kirby's

    And all the Pro-petrino people think that the affair is the reason we don't want him, when in reality, most of us don't want him because of the way he suddenly and unexpectedly leaves every job that he ever has, he has no loyalty to anyone but himself, and no one has any idea how he will be able to recruit players and a coaching staff with his latest national public humiliation...

    Just curious, do you have any idea what else Jesus said and did in that encounter or what they point of that account being in the Bible is? I never cease to be amazed at how at how readily people misquote and misapply scripture to suit whatever argument they are trying to make.

    Yeah, that's pretty funny. I find that I rarely have a problem hearing or replying to anything a bammer says after AU has won an Iron Bowl.

    I could forgive her, but I don't think I would marry her.

  • Is the best we can do? Someone please explain to me why our candidates are college coordinators? We need a proven Head Coach. If money is not a issue why can't this happen? Why can't we get a Grand Slam hire like a Bob Stoops? From all the candidates I've seen which I'm not a fan of either you have got to hire Strong or
    Petrino.. It's shame thou . I mean really people Clemson Offensive Coordinator. Heck, I guess if JJ is in charge we should not get or hopes up to high. We derserve better and hope there names out there we don't know about. If were going after Coordinator and going to gamble bring D. Graig back. He is as proven as the rest.

  • Now I had been really happy with the committee UNTIL the interest arose in the OC at Clemson. I really do not think that is a good choice. Gus's offense has worked quite well in the SEC with big fast defenses. Furthermore, I'm not sure about his recruiting. Can somebody tell me why Morris is getting interest and Kingsbury is not? That makes absolutely NO SENSE unless there is some good ole boy networking going on to some extent at least.

  • fyi chadadopted gus offence, with his tweak. i am not tryin to make a case for him just sayiin
