re: Buccees Mascot Coaching Edition (Former Jet Tracking)

Well obviously he’s going to use that sell while at an HBCU. It’s quite literally the only sell the school has. You’re fooling yourself if you think it’s his only sell though. As mentioned, the important thing is that he found something to sell and sold the hell out of it.

There are definitely reasons to be hesitant of Primetime as a HC but talent acquisition isn’t one.

I want one of two things out of the next coach:
1) Elite recruiter that will bring excitement back to the program
OR
2) Elite offensive schemer that can adapt.
Deion fits the first one. Kiffin fits the second one so happy with either of them.

Ill take either. Those would be really good hype hires and i think will bring the program some excitement imo

I think this is a fair point about the HBCU aspect. Its a vision he’s selling that I don’t know how it’ll translate to somewhere like Auburn. However, the fact that he has that vision and is able to sell it tells me he is a great recruiter in general.

But what will it tell future prospects about his integrity if he abandons the HBCU for a major (white) college, like Auburn? Or anywhere else, for that matter?

I honestly think he's not doing this for the money, which is why if we even pursue him we're completely wasting our time, whether he's up to the job or not.

Your point?

You are a moron.

You are making your whole argument, to hire a particular coach, based on his recruiting a DB and WR. and his massive experience of coach in the SWAC for about 18 months. Other than that, there is nothing else. That is his entire resume.

And you base this assumption on what? He was coaching high school up until 2020.

I doubt he will come to Auburn also. He is on a mission from God for HBCU's.

How did Saban get Bryce Young out of California. Tua out of Hawaii? Resume and a history of results. Then he can point out how he will be surrounded by top quality players and coaches. Take away the race issue that Sanders is pushing in respect for signing with a HBCU, what does he have? He played in the NFL? So what, so did my HS coach. Auburn has coaches that played in the NFL. Will this "great recruiter" persona that he has acquired going to translate to an SEC, PAC, or Big 10 school? Right now, he's a one trick pony. What happens when he doesn't have that tool?

Let the board cast thy votes. Whose candidate should be our HC if it’s down to these 3. Mine or yours.

Primetime

or

Bill Clark or Bill O Brien.

Let’s put Bill O’Brien and Deion in a room with a 5 star prospect.

Who do you think comes out with the signature? I mean that’s just a no brainer in that aspect.

You can argue everything else against Deion and actually have a point. Baffles me that you even question recruiting with him though.

Loeffler also coached Tom Brady. Maybe we should get him if B.O.B doesn’t work out.

As for BOB at the highest level, he had his star receiver bolt from Houston because he was a dickhead to him.
