Auburn does some head scratchers.
I still don’t understand what got Gus fired. Hell, I don’t understand what got tuberville fired.

Tuberville got fired because of 3-2 and his offense being an utter failure.

Gus Malzahn got fired because they realized he would be making in excess of $1 million per win and he had squandered an all senior offensive line. His offense also no longer works in college football. Gus's only advantage over other coaches in his entire career from high school on was his ability to give players benefits others couldn't. With NIL, that is no longer the case.

Coaches have a shelf life. There are exceedingly few coaches that can actually adapt and change with the times. None of the Auburn coaches could do it. Auburn also lost their biggest advantage once everybody could give players money.

Tubberville lost to BAMA 31-7 at home.

We were nearing full strength with Saban.
