What BS


Is this the good old boys getting back at ADAG for hiring Harsin. It seems like this is some petty shite going on in the background that we aren't privy to

Poker at least Leach has built a program before.

Every program Harsin has coached has regressed from the previous coach.

Absolutely. I dont think guys accurately understand the locker room at Auburn. Our attrition rate with recruiting classes was abysmal under Gus. Thats a culture issue that has to be corrected. Plus with Leach, its also a completely different system to which Gus was not recruiting for. Leach has a history of winning and that buys him the expectations of time to get back to winning.

Harsin also has a history of winning, lets give him the time to get back to that record of winning.

You might want to settle down here. We did have some victories from a few returning (Tank and Derrick Hall) but those were probably self interested decisions for the players as well. For instance Shed Jackson saw Auburn had no decent receivers returning and decided to change his mind and come back.

quote:

The culture is so bad that our best receiver got kicked off the team, and not a single player has come out to defend him.

Your own sentence explains to me why there was no defense for him.

Fact of the matter is Harsin has to have continuity and he doesn’t have it.
-He supposedly fired Mike Bobo. Not only do I think that was dumb, I also noticed no difference in play quality in the bowl game to say Harsin’s plays were better
- Mason already left him. Mason found his ways of coaching so repulsive he left for a lateral position in the Big12.
- He fired Corn week 4 for whatever reason.
- And now he gets left at the alter by the new OC three days before NSD.

Just last night Robbie Ashford and Calzada were subtweeting their dumbfounded reactions to they don’t know what the hell is going on with their QB coach and OC. Does that sound like a great culture? Do things seem stable on the plains.

I know you hated 8-4 Gus but don’t tell me about 6-7 Harsin changing 8-4 culture.

BTW- the rumor is Kiesau doesn’t even want the OC job.

You're just being ignorant now. No one is agreeing with you and some on here will go just opposite of me whether right or wrong just to be on the other side.

Is Barrett Sallee irrational now? In the article he says... Auburn is a mess... Harsin is in trouble

I can't remember if it was a regular episode, or a Patreon episode of Split Zone Duo, but they did a long discussion about this. NFL assistant coaches basically have complete anonymity in the town that they live in, and also will have Saturdays off the day before a game. That, plus no recruiting, really makes it an easier gig.


Its weird as shite to not put a year in though. This makes it seem the wife was involved, or it was a personality conflict with Harsin and Davis, or something else.


Davis played at Southern Miss, so its not like coming from Seattle he didn't understand the South/ area in general. He played QB recently enough he should understand recruiting and coaching time and effort.

To quit that quick is odd. I can understand a year in, but unless you are having marital problems and then on the recruiting trail for a week or two never home...I don't understand only lasting a couple of weeks.

To me, it seems like Davis and Harsin just didn't see eye to eye.

In it's entirety this looks bad with the large amount of turnover after a first year but just in regards to Davis I don't see the big deal. He was basically going to help Harsin with the qbs with Harsin calling the plays. Certainly nothing worth melting over.

Supposedly Davis took the job, and 30 days later just stopped showing up to work.

Sounds like a Davis issue. Thats completely unprofessional.

Yes every program.

Arkansas State
Boise State
Auburn

He hasn't coached anywhere else. What's crazy is every spot was completely set up for him to just walk in and win at.

Someone has to coach the QBs. Preferably a decent Qb coach so I’d
rather it not be Kiesau or the HC.

So bumping Kiesau to OC and Trovon to receivers wouldn’t work.

You're essentially wanting a pilot to be fired mid flight because you'd rather the plane crash than to get to its destination, just so you can say "I told you so".

I'll have a drink with you any day. I have a feeling that it won't go like you think it will though.

It's not even worth melting over anymore. Just a total collapse.

Jang Trovon has never been a coach in his life at any level. He's grad assistant quality and we want him to be our WR coach as his first job?

We are dumb.

It can be a Davis issue and a Harsin issue. If you continually hire people that don’t work out then there’s clearly a problem.
