they aren't exactly overjoyed about keeping Kiffin.



They loved him again as soon as he was not leaving.

Honestly, I think they just put themselves in the Gus trap but only worse. IF he stays successful they can't keep him. If he goes downhill, they can't fire him.

I was very much against Freeze but just can't fathom not watching again because of this hire.

Same.

I just hope the money isn't that high for a guy who was begging for the job.

If it's more than $0.00, we are dumb.

I’m curious if Caddy might become the first two time interim head coach at the same school.

Caddy will be on retainer in a new never before heard of permanent position as the on call interim coach.

I’ve had time to digest this now, and here are my thoughts.

He is a coach in search of redemption. Now that we have given him a shot, I feel like he will be fiercely loyal to us and work his arse off for us. We won’t have to worry about him bolting in two or three years- ala Lane. Rumor has it that the buyout language was a sticking point with him.

Also, Freeze WANTS to be here. Didn’t he say that he would walk to Auburn? He’s not a mercenary coach. He knows what a special place this is. Given his motivation, our facilities, and the NIL money, this could be a deadly combination for the SEC.

I feel like we got a better coach than we realize. Now, let’s turn this thing around.

Auburn: Pete Thamel tweets that Hugh Freeze's deal on The Plains is for six years and worth an average of $6.5 million per year.

Caddy has the Joe Whitt lifetime contract if he wants it I’m sure

Don’t insult Gus like that. Gus has been to Atlanta for things other than the Peach Bowl not to even mention playing for a Natty

We have exceeded my expectations of Loefler, Grimes, or Lashlee.

Let’s get NIL for hookers and blow and win the west sooner than people think.
