If offered, would ARK take Gus at this point considering your current situation?

Nope. He burned his chance when he used Arkansas for a raise at Auburn

Lord I hope now.

There is a problem with this situation that most folks at Auburn cant comprehend. And it is understandable.

Gus had/has a following of folks (acolytes) if you will that absolute go to bat for GM in any situation. A kind of cult following that began most likely at the huge church...

They would root for Gus against the razorbacks in almost any situation. The amount of pull back from the fan base would make HDN's last 2 seasons pale in comparison if GM came here and was seemingly mediocre after 2-3 years. Not worth the hassle period.

That and I cant stand the man. Please keep him...

Gus would be a hell of a lot better than the torture weve gone through the last few years.

It would present ARK with an opportunity to pickup CGM at a cheaper rate while letting AU pay the difference potentially.... he knows the recruiting landscape there, he would also be an improvement over the current HC...

Id be torn on it if it weren’t for the fact we currently have a QB that would be perfect for Gus’ system in KJ Jefferson. With KJ, I’d take Gus today.

Gustavo will never be the HC at Arkansas.

I hadn't realized how desperate some of us are.

Like a man going back to an abusive, extremely overweight, Bipolar girlfriend.

WOW!

And the people who'll say no will be the same people who yell "bring back Bobby!"

Gus can't win more than 9 games at Auburn with Top 10 talent every year. What makes you think hell win even half that here with top 25-ish talent... In the same division.

The Gus/Chad offense simply does not work without a Newton-esque clone at QB.

Yep...

For I know a wolf in wolves clothing... But that wolf in sheep's clothing is a different situ.

We know Bobby, but by no we should know Gus.

He is stubborn to the hilt in his coaching and managing a program. He will never win another NC or get to one at Auburn without a miracle from heaven (see Newton's law, lol)
with much better recruiting... He would be mediocre here and bring all kinds of baggage.

Norvell, Leach, Heck even perhaps Kiffen, Gundy, Clark... any of these over the short bus please..

Gus is so in with Auburn that he can't get out.

It will be OK.
