Anyone who follows GT knows they were devastated by injures and could never sustain drives.

Every Tech fan I know is satisfied with Roof. Not thrilled but satisfied

Maybe he will let you touch his NC ring -- you know the one in which his D held Oregon to its lowest point total of the year...

I'm not saying he is the best ever, but dayum I get tired of all the whining among Auburn fans these days. Some of you might as well be bammers

Doesn't matter who we hire, some will bitch about it.

All things considered, and I know it's not a very high bar, but I believe Roof is the best DC we've had other than Muschamp since Chiz left for Austin back in '04.

Just as in '15, our losses during his tenure were more on the offense than the defense. And his unit won a few games when Gustav's wasn't firing on all cylinders (MSU and Oregon in '10, SCarolina and UF in '11).

That said, I'd prefer someone like Allen or Diaz, with no previous ties to AU. We need some fresh blood.

Short memory for some here. I vividly remember the pain and anger I felt watching Auburns defense being savagely beaten in every facet of the defensive game when Roof was here. I kept asking myself how we as a team forgot what angles were, tackling, hitting, and staying in correct positions.

Didn't we encourage Roof to find a new job after the 2011 season so we could move on from his defense? Now we want him back???

I'm listening to him on there. Not sure what else he is supposed to say if the rumors are true. He's not going to publicly say he's leaving until he gets canned.

It's not like JJ is going to get on there any say anything else. I still think he'll be gone soon...at least I hope.

Yall can believe what y'all want. It seems pretty clear to me that Jay is planning on staying at least another year so I'm just going to take his words at face value.

Well I'm sure he hopes to stay. What he said this morning has zero impact on what he ends up doing. It was the only thing he could say.

I'm not saying it's going to happen, quite the opposite actually. I'm saying that to infer anything from what he said is ignorant.

Maybe the issue is that I don't see Jay Jacobs getting either fired this year, or being forced to resign. And as you said, Jay Jacobs wants to stay, so I think Jacobs has another year.

either way, if Gus gets canned, Jay Jacobs will not hire our next football coach.

Seriously, what in the frick is Jacobs still doing here? Steele is going to be our new DC?
