The Bodda Getta

I would personally really like to see Auburn change that trend of Mack Brown raiding our coaches. Not because I think Grimes is an all-star (he's good, dont get me wrong), but because to make the next leap in program prestige, we need to quit seeing our coaches make lateral moves to other programs.

If you'll notice, that doesn't happen to the power schools. And it shouldn't happen to Auburn. If Grimes went to be the OC at Texas, who could blame him... but just moving to do the same job? Naw... we need to stop that.

I think Grimes stays unless he just wants to move closer to home. I don't see that job any more desirable than at Auburn. We are on an even playing field with anyone.

I REALLY like Grimes...and I hope he says. Obviously the world will not end if we lose him, but MAN, I really want to keep this coaching staff for another year.

"Ron and Phillip say Auburn will match the Texas offer"

Why not just beat it so that it never will be about the money?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Chizik encourage his coaches to go to interviews, if for nothing more than practice at the least? I don't think I'm making that up. I believe that I have read that somewhere.
