The biggest thing is that he already had is players in

Gus sucks actually. I personally hope he hoovers Auburn to 12-1 and 13-0 seasons regularly.

Frost was asked to be a part of the National Championship Equestrian team at Auburn after that play.

That would get him $5 million per year at tamu

Tell me another coach that could have done that at AU this year.
Let's not ignore that Gus was at Auburn 2 seasons ago. He had the players he needed to run his offense at Auburn. He had a talented bunch that was pretty familiar with him since he'd spent 3 years there a short while ago.

Gus is not responsible for those 2 extra wins. Just because his players executed better on the "Prayer in Jordan Hare" and the 109 field goal return doesn't mean that he's responsible for their execution. A coach isn't always responsible for his players' mistakes on the field. Georgia's safeties did not play 4th and long right and Alabama's linemen did not execute proper field goal return coverage. Gus was not responsible for either of those execution errors.

People are forgetting Auburn was 3 plays away from 8-4. Someone needs to find out who Gus sold his soul to, to have this MIRACULOUS LUCK.
Pathetic, really.

You seemed threatened by Gus. Relax man, you have nothing to do with the success or lack of success for Bama or Auburn.

AR fans will ride this in the ground bc they keep saying it will be 3-4 more years before Bert turns things around. Good coaches win.period end of discussion.

Absolutely not. My sources tell me that he will be the next head omelette maker for the biggest Waffle House in El Paso.

Upvote it's ridiculous how much credit he's getting when the chin had top 5 recruiting classes. Also Florida had a similar season last year only their D was their strength.

Probably 25-30% of those classes were either busts or lost to attrition.

People don't pay attention to that, they just like to spout off crap and act like they have paid attention to the inner workings of Auburn football for the last few years and have an informed opinion.

I wish I would have bookmarked all the threads that said Gus was over his head in the SEC. Auburn would win 4-6 games. Auburn has no talent, and will need to recruit well to recover...
It was one thread after another like that, and now it's Gus is getting too much credit. Auburn was stacked with talent...
It's fricking comical
