I want a coach that wins. Hugh Wins
He was 2-3 vs Saban and 1-0 vs Kirby.

He was also 1-4 vs Gustav and 0-4 vs Bert at Arky, including losing to both one of the years he beat Saban.

Since that 2nd victory over Bama, he is 2-7 against teams that finished ranked in the top 25 (including 2-5 at Ole Miss) and 5-10 against teams with 9 or more wins.

He is thoroughly mediocre, and his most impressive wins as a HC occurred over 7 seasons ago. Might as well beg Gustav to come back if we're going to settle for that.

in the end, i think Grimes would probably be a decent hire. it just makes me sad that the "big money" guys aren't at least trying to pony up for a bigger name than him. even if we end up with him but at least TRY for a bigger name/more established guy. and even more sad if they're also considering freeze. it's just sad to think this is what they're going to settle for is all, and the fact that they're united behind these names. like this is not even making me angry, just flat out sad about being an auburn football fan.

also, them meddling with the next coach's staff (referencing the comments about wanting Etheridge and Twill) before he even gets here is a TERRIBLE way to entice any sort of new hire.

for being successful businessmen, our boosters sure are stupid. good grief.

someone talk me off the ledge.



I'm right there with you. Hiring Grimes or Freeze is a huge letdown. We will be scraping it out for 4th or 5th in the west year in and year out.

What a huge waste of time and money. Should have just kept Gus and enjoyed the mediocrity.

We dumped a homely girl, just to date another. Sack up and take your shot at a hottie.

We are truly pathetic if this pans out. And I am far from a sky-screamer. But damn, I guess it's not too late to start.

I'm starting to get on the Prime Time train. Not sure there is another name out there that excites me? Is Jason Garrett a legit name?

I don’t think so. He would be an out of left field name like Harsin was.

Lots of revisionist history being thrown around when it comes to Hugh Freeze to try to make this turd shine

Baylors offense is hard to watch. I don't know why anyone would be excited over Grimes. I am not for Freeze either,no way excited about that. but I bet he will be it if he will take it. Auburn is terrible at football coach hires.

I dont put blinders on like some fans on this site. Hugh was an excellent coach at Ole Miss. Signed excellent recruiting classes, beat the shite out of bama, won most of his bowl games, and literally got the most out of his players.

I dont really have a dog in the fight. Im defending freeze so hard because this board writes off good coaches and tries to rewrite history. Hugh Freeze is a good coach. Full stop. Stop trying to poke holes it that. Is he the best option? Who knows. Prime, Freeze, Grimes...we could all throw out names but in the end, it will be a coach not a damn one of us knows about

Good. I hope you and your family are well. I was thinking of you guys down in Florida before, during and after the storm. Absolute devastation down there. Keep safe and God Speed.

Grimes and Freeze are both extremely underwhelming hires considering how much we spent to fire 2 staffs. We would have been wise to keep Gus, pump $40 million into NIL, and break the bank for the best OL and DL coaches/recruiters. Those hires feel very lazy and like we did no real "search"; Lashlee would also fall into that category.

Hopefully when the AD hiring and coach firing shite gets real the big money guys will dig their heads out of their asses.

Oh, and hell no to Bill Clark and BOB too

Agree, but the important thing is for Auburn to be uniform in our support and I believe the PTB are. Give that person the resources for NIL and Coaches and we will do very well. It is the Chizik model and it worked before.

I actually think Grimes would be better. But as I have predicted, I still believe it to be Freeze.

Doing fine. We only got some very minor damage. Things are back to normal for us. Down South, not so much

Hoping my new boat shows up tomorrow. If so, Im taking Thursday and Friday off and testing it out

For Freeze? Half the fanbase won’t support the chipmunk from day 1.

Please name one other fanbase that wants him.
