It took Bama over 10 years to figure out no coach wants to coach in Tuscaloosa. After they fired a good coach in Mike Shula they could not find any one to take the job. So they committed to pay Nick Saban 32 million dollars to take the job. Now Auburn fires one of the best SEC coaches of the past 10 years. How long will it take Auburn to figure out they have to do the same by paying a proven coach at least 32 million to coach at Auburn? Time is running out.

Serious..Mike Shula was fired because he could'nt beat Auburn.
He never Got Alabama to the SEC game or beyond. I personally like Mike..However College Football is a Buisness. The Football Revenue normally supports the entire Athletic Dept.

Then if your program is Mediocre Revenue is lost.

What?

He was a good coach because he never beat LSU.

We hired a top 5 CFB coach.

There is so much wrong with this thread that I don't know where to start. And time isn't running out. Albeit all of the rumors that people are hearing, Auburn probably has a short list of about 2-3 people we are truly interested in.
