It’s a long shot but I hope we push for Fickell. I don’t think he’ll come but he is still who I think I’d like to have the most.
He's probably the only 'home run hire' out there that's realistically available.

I would prefer Aranda, despite Baylor's struggles this year. But Fickell would be my very strong second choice.

Kiff is a pipe dream. Outside of the length of contract issue, there's not really any logical reason for him to move from Oxford to AU. And Sexton is his agent, so look for him to get even more money from his current employer by dangling the "AU is interested" carrot.

Agree with you on all points except maybe slightly prefer Fickell, but would be happy with either. As well as Kiffin. And yeah, he’s gonna get paid more to be a lot less stressed than he would be if he came to AU.

They're neck and neck with me, the only difference is Aranda has SEC experience. But Fickell's lack of time outside of Ohio doesn't bother me that much because of his track record at Cincy.

Am I reading this right that Slayton is saying Gus would never send such a shite care package?


Yes - I'm young enough to translate. A breakdown for the instagram challenged.

It's actually a video of Darius Slayton opening an Auburn "shoebox" in the Giants locker room which I'm assuming is from the school trying to get NFL players to wear AU gear. Looks like there are two hats and a T shirt in it. Very basic looking stuff... I can see why they're not into it.

Adoree Jackson, who went to USCw says "Gus woulda never did the kid like this, @slimslay_81 [Darius Slayton] should've came to SC [USCw]"

You can hear a couple of the other guys in the background saying "getting wild as hell for this one... this ain't it..." and laughing.

Sounds like maybe a bunch of the NFL players get these from colleges and the AU one is shitty. If we're going to send these out to NFL players the designs should at least be good and something cool/unique or at the bare minimum not just plain AU shirts and caps which I'm sure these guys already have plenty of.

Darius Slayton's face looks like when you open a Christmas present from a weird aunt and there's a thrift store sweater with a cat on it.

EDIT: I note that this has nothing to do with Harsin... there's plenty he's terrible at and I don't expect our head coach to have drip... though Deion would

Are you not worried about Aranda? He's had one season of success with Rhule's recruits/players. Those guys are gone now and their team has taken a step back this year. Most notably, what's up with Baylor's defense the past few games? They're getting gashed, and that's supposed to be Aranda's strength.

By the way, for anyone who witnessed Gus put up 70 points on Temple last night...I tried to tell you guys how impressive Rhule's work there was. That program is not good AT ALL.

To me Fickell is clearly above Aranda. He is a much more proven coach, and despite the Ohio ties and he has pretty extensive time spent recruiting states like Florida.

I actually think it's just one hat and a shirt. And that's it. No letter. No note. Not even a card inside.

And they're not even wrapped in the box. Like, not even that fancy tissue paper they put in gift boxes at dillards.

Alabama Care Package

Sigh... I get it now ours is absolute dogshit compared to this...

Doing something with 1/4 effort is worse than not doing it.

Edit: BYU's is better

This will blow your mind but kids (I'm talking anyone under 25/26) don't even exchange phone numbers anymore they exchange instagrams.

Negative... From the people I know snapchat already came, went, and has circled back around to IG.
Wait until I tell you about the skull emojis...

I have about 4,000 Instagram followers and I don’t even know how to use it. LOL.

And I’m not going to even talk about Twitter.

I like having Twitter and Gab. I don't do insta or tiktok as their EULA is very invasive especially if you have it on your phone. And stuff of what the chinese are doing with tiktok...

I've always believed that Aranda is a rising star in the CFB coaching ranks. He seems to be a no-nonsense, solid guy who was the real rock in that insane 2019 run at LSU. I'm willing to give him a pass on this season because he's only in his third year as an HC (and one of them was the COVID season). I think he will turn out to be one of the sport's best in a couple of years or so.

Rhule is probably my #3 choice. I think the NFL was a bad choice for him, but when someone throws $60 million guaranteed in your face you'd be a fool not to take it.

I would be thrilled with either Aranda, Fickell or Rhule. All three are young (in their 40s), have multiple seasons of experience as HCs, and have shown success (Aranda has an P5 Championship, Fickell made the CFP as a G5 and Rhule won a G5 CG and played in a P5 one after total rebuilds).

You mean bereal not tiktok not snapchat not instagram not facebook not myspace not aim--it's just a cycle that will never end. Always something new to get on.

Of these I think bereal is the least intrusive as you are only allowed one post per day that is a front facing camera shot and back camera shot with your text

Didn’t even know this was a thing.

However, I’m embarrassed looking at what was sent out vs the others. Pathetic.

Yeah but now you can take multiple pics and can separately take your front facing and rear facing pics. They all end up devolving into the same crap.

Correction, Adoree posted the video with the “should’ve came to SC.” Slayton reposted it with his own caption over the video saying “Gus woulda never did the kid like this.” Even our own guys want him gone. Haha

What if the SEC and/or Auburn decide Freeze is unhirable?

Seems like if Auburn wants him then the sec shouldn’t have a say so in it.
