I would have supported a Hoke hire if he brought Borges back with him.

Borges was washed up. Other coaches had started to figure him out.

What an overall shitty list of candidates. No wonder we ended up with 5-19

Looking at the list of clowns we interviewed last time, we would have been better off keeping Tubs. We didn't exactly raise the bar when we decided to go coach hunting the last go around.

There are 2 coaches on that list that would've made me happy. Patterson and Hoke(he is the Michigan guy right?)

Damn Jay Jacobs is a lazy mother fricker. Saban comes to Alabama and kicks Tubs arse. We fire him because we are convinced we can't compete, so we interview people like Patrick Nix and Rodney Garner???? Jesus Christ JJ should be fired on the basis of who he interviewed 4 years ago alone.

Muschamp had a look of horror when someone mentioned to him that he was the rumored new coach at Auburn.

The only one that list that should have come here, was Patterson. I like that guy.

Shows me JJ & PD cared more about getting a "yes man" than doing what's best for Auburn.

I'm not advocating Kirby Smart, but I very seriously doubt he has spent all this time learning under Saban to accept any job where he is simply the yes man. I would bet anything that Saban would probably choke him to death before he let him walk out the door to be anyone's "yes" man.

Screw that. Patterson or Petrino or bust.

I just don't think we'd be any better than 7-5/8-4 every year under Jimbo.

The fact that JJ knows he has to get this one right is the only shred of hope I have during this coaching search, but I really hope he's gone sooner rather than later.

That is beyond pathetic.

And the fact that Gary Patterson should be our HC right now is REALLY pissing me off
