Been meaning to ask this. Just curious with Dameyune Craig since, as we all know, AU is unlike any other college in America because it is a fambly with a fan base of 100% alumni. So what happens when a fambly member not only leaves but humiliates the fambly by leaving for the same position elsewhere? Are they shunned permanently?

He didn't go rouge. He went purple.

Most are probably going to be fine. There will be a loud minority that trashes him, but most of our fans understand why he is leaving and will wish him well outside of when we play him. He did his job as well as he could while he was with us, and frankly Im glad he left after he pulled in this last WR class.
Gus runs things his way and doesn't get tons of input from other coaches outside of Lashlee and now Hand. DC left FSU for pay and input. (he apparently had a larger coaching role at Auburn than FSU where he was kinda Lashlee to Gus to Jimbo) DC is now leaving Auburn to go to a place where he feels he will have more of an impact in gameplan and input, and I personally don't blame him.

I don't expect all coaches to get along, and I don't expect our alumni to stay to coach for us if they aren't happy or don't think it is the best place for them.

I also don't see this as a full blown confirmation that Gus is a mess. He might be, but it wont be because this one coach didn't see eye to eye with him.

These are real humans with real jobs, and when they act just like myself and my fellow employees act I don't see anything weird or wrong with it. Both sides handled the transition really well, and that is all I can ask in a situation like this.

Sad he is gone, wish him well, hope that Burns or whoever we hire does a good job

Neither played for AU and thus were not true members of the fambly

Is the slogan now "fambly mostly-in"? Not the same ring to it, but what can you do?

no part of this is on DC, this unfortunately is on Gus. any coach with a brain moves DC to QB coach and offers him recruiting coordinator. for LSU fans, since I know I will have to spell it out, this implies Lester is also a brainless wonder. you dumb motherfrickers are also about to figure out how subpar DC is as a WR coach. have a nice day.

Garner already doing that. Agree on QB coach, but there are only so many titles to go around and keep everyone happy.
