I don't get why Auburn doesn't just pony up and hire a big name coach.

I don't think they could have done it this past time. They were in shambles and they are also having to directly compete with Saban more than anyone. No truly big name coach was going to come in there during this time and potentially ruin his career (no offense Aubs).


Once Saban is gone I think they would be able to pull a much bigger name, but Gus may end up being really good and they might not have to anyway.

I actually think Gus will do well.

Bielema I think will fall flat on his face.

We could've, actually. Many coaches were prepared to take the job if they got full control of the program. Of course, Jacobs told them no, and while I love Gus, we hired a Sun Belt coach.
