I believe Deion would've made a better coach than Freeze...at least his record is clean (I think).

I'm thinking Deion is too smart to take that job.

Eh... I'm not sure Deion is a great coach. Solid recruiter at a lower level but that doesn't necessarily translate. I haven't seen much proof he's got much in the way of X's and O's.

I don't think Freeze is a great choice, but I don't think Deion is a better alternative.

He wouldn't have.

Rupert even said he was not in the news business but the entertainment business. He may have been the original troll / click baiter.

As would Rhule.

As would Fickell.

And probably a few others.

He's almost illiterate.

I don't know why people keep acting like he's a prize.

I would have like Deion as well. But he was probably a bigger risk

Deion was probably waiting on Norvell to crash and burn but FSU appears to be back although the ACC is terrible

If Cristobal doesn't last at the U, Deion would do some serious damage in Miami

Surprised GA Tech didn't show him any interest with his ties to Atlanta area

Colorado just seems like a bad fit, Oklahoma or Okla St might be a good fit for him as well

I never wanted Deion (and for the record, didn’t want Freeze).

Deion is a totally unknown commodity. Maybe he’ll be great or maybe he benefited from a talent gap.

All I know is IF Auburn hired him and he fizzled, and we booted him, it would be a much bigger fiasco than the Harsin (and other firings). I don’t see Deion quietly taking his buyout and that being the end of it…

Word is he will take the USF job. Doesn't want a P5 job right now.

Deion would be better served to take the USF job. He would be home, in his comfort zone for recruiting. He could run the AAC for 2 or 3 years and jump to an SEC job or FSU.

Aub admins can’t fill out Prime’s staff and they sure can’t control him.

They have been starved for tyrannical control over a puppet for way too long.

You are comparing Auburn to Colorado?

PAC-12 North, PAC-12 Mountain or whatever is going to be easier than the SEC West.

Maybe. But I'm also old enough to remember the blowback from Charles Barkley saying we needed to hire Turner Gill. Instead, we got the MNC and Turner is in an administrative position at arky.
