This happened last week. I was hoping we could bring him in as our Buck coach this summer.

If we had a legitimate chance at bringing him in, why didn't we?

The NCAA hasn't allowed a 10th on field coach yet.

Kevin Greene will never coach at Auburn. But good for him hope his LBs perform for NYJ

Honestly, I am sure it was hard to tell Travis Williams no. He paid his dues.

Going back a year. From the Auburn board a year ago



KG almost for sure would come back for a DC position where he'd make some 500-750k+ / year, I don't doubt that

Don't see us hiring him without DC experience

Wasn't his wife actively trying to get AU to look at him for a position a couple years ago?

She was retweeting people who said KG should be DC or Co-DC type stuff. Rumor was he met up with AU but the recruiting aspect was a huge deterrent

He is a top flight NFL position coach who clearly doesn't have trouble finding a job when he wants one. There isn't a great reason for him to come to Auburn unless we made him DC + huge raise
