I don't believe any Auburn fan wants to keep Gus as a head coach

Do y'all not miss the days of actually not giving up 400 yards a game every year? Even in AU's 2 championship years in 2010 and 2013, the defense was bend don't break or porous at best.
So look at me with a straight keyboard and tell me you believe in Gus going forward.

You're asking like 6 different questions.
I don't care, at all, about going back to an emphasis on defense over offense. 2010 and 2013 were great.
I do want to keep Gus as a coach.
My confidence in Gus, on the other hand, took a big blow this year and I am 50-50 as to whether he'll rebound.

I believe in Malzahn. He just needs to go back and look at the offense he ran in 2013 and stick to mainly running. Defense has played well the past 2 games.

Defense has improved. It's the offense that sucks. He gets next year to get things turned around.
TP is at best the 3rd best Zelda game. Fight me.

Yea, he definitely threw away his Auburn identity as soon as he left.

I was kinda hoping they would fire him after this year.
When they fired Chiz so soon after he won a national title I thought "this is the program of the future!" But if they keep Gus after this year it was a onetime thing.
Eventually programs will get wise to the fact that most national title winning coaches do it quickly when they get to a program. Giving a new guy three years just because, or keeping a guy after a bad season because of previous success, in most cases doesn't work out. Every coaching hire is a roll of the dice.
Eventually some program will realize this and blow through coaches at a two year pace till they find "the one."

Auburn's defense has definitely looked better as the season has progressed. They don't make massive mental errors, they don't blatantly miss tackles in space. That sounds like faint praise but they have enough athletes if they just do those things they should be a middling defense that plays pretty well against bad offenses and ok against better ones.
That is pretty much where they are right now.

defense isn't the issue right now...

I still believe.
He made the right hire at DC.
I think football culture has just become so spoiled where you expect too much turnaround in three years.
He probably did not help himself doing as well as he did in 13 tbh.
We have good RBs. Our defense is headed the right way, we just need good qb and non-stone hand wide receivers.
This year was a disaster, but so far, there has only been one game where we really had no shot.
By the end of the year, there will have only been two.

The defense looked better, albeit against aTm & UGA's putrid offenses, but the D looks improved.
That offensive playcalling is not good. And Gus feeding Barber the ball when Robinson appears to move it better is weird. Then the whole decision to put a gimpy QB in the game when he was obviously lame is strange. The fact that Gus didn't realize that Johnson was a headcase and afraid of contact before the season started should be worrisome to AU folks.

If I were an AU fan, I'd want Gus fired simply to keep the pattern going

will Boom move on after year one if he sees no future in the O getting better. Maybe he would even consider a lateral move to get out of AU. Just random thoughts?

I absolutely do not believe in Gus. I think most Auburn fans are just hoping he figures something out because we are stuck with him since our athletic director has no clue what he is doing.

Gus needs to get super focused on recruiting quarterbacks who can run his system. it doesnt work without a running quarterback and a good offensive line. We took a lot of injuries on the OL this year.
Muschamp will get the defense back where it needs to be. Theres been improvement this year, but with no real QB with any confidnece, the offense has been ridiculous.

Yea, not sure how he could have done better.

I really think he wants a shot at redemption as a HC. I think it will be at least another year before he would get an offer that would put him in the best position.
I would never blame a former HC for jumping at a chance to get back to it, but I think he is still at least one year away. And, let's be honest, bad offense is hardly a new thing for him at this point.
