Not sure as to those AU fans...this team is full of Gus' recruits. He was only gone for about 10 months. Prosch is prob the only guy that was not suited for Gus bec he didn't have the hands of an Eric Smith...but we have Ricky PArks taking that role now.

This.

Gus has shown you he can win with his own recruits, because those kids are ones HE recruited. Chizik and Trooper may have been good recruiters, but Gus is almost assuredly the one that identified the talent. Considering AU's recruiting rank this year, I think Gus is quite capable of recruiting without either of them.

Auburn recruiting (247 sports rankings)
2014 Class - Currently #7 in the country
2013 Class - #13 in the country (Nick Marshall)
2012 Class - #11 in the country
2011 Class - #8 in the country (Tre Mason)
2010 Class - #6 in the country

Nick Marshall is a good example. He received his offer from Auburn on 1/1/13; just 4 weeks after Gus Malzahn was named HC at Auburn. Tre Mason visited Auburn in November of 2011, a month prior to Malzahn leaving for Arky State.

Basically two critical cogs of your offense were identified by Gus.
