When is the best time for Auburn for Malzahn to leave?

It's a foregone conclusion that he will eventually leave. Let's speculate (just for discussion sake)that if it's not this year then next year. Auburn will be in a serious rebuild mode next season and production wil drop off from this year anyway. Doesnt it make sense to start off a new QB with a new OC. Is it going to be a step back to put the new QB next year under Malzahn for 1 season then start him off with a new guy the next? With this in mind some may think it logical to rebuild once with a new OC. Any thoughts?

Frazier won't be starting under center until 2012 most likely. Trotter isn't exactly gonna be playing on Sundays.

His scheme will help us win games next year when we have some inexperienced and young talent playing a tougher schedule. It definitely helps keep some momentum going through the rebuilding year. With Malzahn, AU has the potential to win 8 or even 9 next year. Without him, we might lose 2-3 more games.
AU should be in good shape going into 2012, if by the grace of God, we can keep him for 2012, AU will be dangerous. If he leaves after that, I think the talent and depth will be built back up to a level where his departure will not be as big of a hit.

Malzahn is the double secret Coach-in-waiting for Auburn. When all this crap comes down, Chizik will be thrown under the bus ( 
), and Gus will claim he knew nothing about this. The Aubs will live happily ever after.

He should have left now. They lose 24 seniors, and possibly their two best players, more like probably. His name may be mud this time next year.

didn't the defensive coordinator from the University of Texas just get the head coaching gig at one of the top programs in the country, after a 5-7 season??

I think having Gus for one more year will help Auburn out in the long run. A win against Oregon and a coaching staff returning intact for the 2011 season will be big selling points going in to NSD. If keeping Gus helps AU land Frazier and a few other top notch offensive skill payers the future should look bright.
Frazier can redshit in 2011 and Trotter will be serviceable to get an 8 or 9 win season (we can hope). Bring in a new OC after the 2011 season to start working with Frazier either in bowl practice or spring ball, the o line should have some experience by then. 2012 schedule should be favorable (LSU, UGA and Arky will be at JHS). We will start in Atl against Clemson and go to UF and close @ Bama. We won't be world beaters, but that should be another 8 or 9 win season could set AU up for another special season in 2014 with Frazier a 4th year Jr.

Auburn needs to ride that train as long as possible. Replacing a good coordinator doesn't always work out as well as most hope. Look at FSU post Richt.

It would be if you were going to have a totally different offense, but if you are going to run the same one generally speaking it would be a lot better having the originator of said offense schooling the QB.
I don't think Chizik would fall to far from Gus's type of O and in fact would probably install someone who has been on Chizik's hip. Just a theory of mine is all. I could be completely wrong when it comes to the wacky world of college football.
