Grimes would be the least expensive and has been at Auburn before. Checks the boxes.
He doesn't belong on the list with the others. The fact he is there is what has me concerned. We all should be. That's a pussy hire

So they were secretly offering Yurachek $2 mill to be AD, but they're looking for a budget HC?
Man up, bruh. We're sending a message this time. I believe it.

You know that I hope you're right. Will believe it when Grimes is eliminated

Says in the article Lane is the frontrunner

You need to get this Debbie Downer Jaba crap out of your head. Now. We need positive vibes and we need everyone pulling hard for Prime and Lane. Pulling hard.

So this guy says auburn is the number one open spot in the country but that hugh freeze is the best fit out of all the possible guys. I don’t get that.
And not that any of you care, but if we hire Freeze I promise you I will never watch an auburn football game until he is gone.

Let me guess, you think Freeze isn't very good?
His point is actually pretty true. Freeze would fit in perfectly for these reasons:
1) He'd be forever grateful to Auburn like Bruce Pearl was. He is uber hungry and would work like a dog and wants to be here more than anyone. Freeze actually wants this job; guys like Kiffin and Sanders would take it but don't see this as an end-goal.
2) He has already beaten everyone in the SEC and has a proven track-record just like Kiffin does.
3) He is an extremely good recruiter with connections all over the South-East, and he is also a much more driven recruiter than Kiffin is.
4) He actually has the personality and drive to schmooze and work boosters to raise NIL money and do all that shite which is in fact important here (this is where he has a big advantage over Kiffin who is aloof and withdrawn). Freeze actually likes doing that shite, he is very personable. Lane is actually an introvert who apparently just wants to chill at his beach home in Florida.
5) As stupid as it sounds, even his bible-thumping reverend persona fits Auburn. This is the school that made Chette Williams a known mainstay and public figure.
Again, everything apart from the off-field history is like 10/10 fit for Auburn and would what succeed here. He would kill it at this job. He really is that good.

I really like this well thought out response. Freeze does make sense.

I'm starting to feel that way. Just have Lane and Deion higher.

I can’t disagree with anything you’ve said. Well written and thought out. I’m just too prideful to support him at this point, to be frank. I don’t want to support him. If we do end up with him, maybe I’ll come around once he starts to win. Just how I feel right now about it.

I would be heartbroken if Prime doesn’t come, but I think I would be pretty stoked with Lane, Dykes, or Freeze. I am more and more excited by Dykes, but who knows if he is even on the radar. If we got Dykes and he could somehow convince Patterson to come be his DC, we would have a fearsome O and D, if we can get the Jimmy’s and Joe’s in. Would have to load the rest of the staff with recruiters. Get Dell and Garner back home.

And keep in mind, I still don't think that Roberts signs off on Freeze so he's still a long-shot and would take missing on multiple options to enter the fray in my opinion.
But as ridiculous as it sounds, even with the known scandal and past issues, Freeze's personality fits perfectly at Auburn. He is outgoing and legitimately personable. Once he starts winning and people forget about the Ole Miss thing, he would be extremely liked here.
I really can't say the same for Lane. Not that he'd be disliked, but his personality is just different. So when one of these writers describes "fit", it's parameters such as these.

Sonny Dykes would be a horrible choice. He has sucked for years until now
Posted on 11/3/22 at 8:56 pm to Poker Dough
I’d be happy with either of the three. I feel uncertainty with Prime as what will we be getting as a game day coach? Yes, the recruiting factor will play high, but for how long when facing the meat grinder of the SECW? With Kiffin, how devoted to recruiting will he be and will he give AU 5+ years? I know Freeze will be the football version of Bruce as he will bd grateful for the job. How will he handle the negative recruiting thrown his way by all others? Once again, I think any of them would work and work well. I do think freeze would be the most loyal however. JMHO

One thing that I was thinking about that will be a huge plus with Prime is the media. I’ve always said they are our biggest enemy. Who pushes the narrative that we are our biggest enemy? The press. Who jumps on us harder than they do our rivals when something bad happens? The press.
With Prime, National press will be all about him. He is a beloved figure in sports. If the local SE press starts trying to crap on him? We call them racists and watch them back off like the cowards they are.

quote:All the Prime and Kiffin-ites only want to talk about scandal and avoid on the field coaching when comparing to Freeze. They want to say Prime will win because he can recruit or that they will be happy with 3 and 4 loss teams being our best win a year and its acceptable. That winning against the big teams don't matter. All because they just don't like Freeze and won't look at him as a coach and want the others to look better.
Let me guess, you think Freeze isn't very good?

Isnt that a big reason to not want a coach? If half the fan base doesnt support him for whatever reasons it should probably be a concern for the people hiring the new coach. I think, in my own opinion, hes a late 40s early 50s juvenile. He makes horrible off the field decisions that could cause problems for Auburn. Granted i know there could be a scandal with any new incoming coach, his history would weigh heavily on where he should rank on the hire list. And honestly hes always seemed like gus 2.0. Auburn can and should do much better. But this is just my personal opinion.

Freeze is a grade-A creep. We just fired a guy that had sexual deviance. Let’s not have that type of February, or in Freeze’s case, July/August again.
