He's a very good defensive coordinator, but his resume as a head coach is horrific.
The fact that greygoose wants him should be clue enough that it will be a horrific hire.
If no other program is sniffing Durkin for an HC job...leave it to Auburn to pick up a turd, dust it off, and convince themselves they can polish it.
Look at the market, look at the resume, some coaches are coordinators for life.

If Durkin goes 3-0 or 2-1 I say keep him.

Yeah, he was definitely ready to be an SEC head coach, just look at the resume:
Coaching
Henderson State (2015)
Running backs coach
West Georgia (2016)
Graduate assistant
IMG Academy (FL) (2017)
Running backs coach
Birmingham Iron (2018)
Running backs coach
Auburn (2019–2022)
Running backs coach
Auburn (2022)
Interim head coach
Auburn (2023)
Associate head coach & running backs coach
Las Vegas Raiders (2024)
Running backs coach
Released from Raiders (2025)
Any day now, he's getting that head coaching job.
The good news is we didn't hire Caddy and we aren't here facing an ugly divorce from an Auburn hero.

I think Durkin is on the job interviewing as they are out looking at other candidates. I think he would have to win out to have a good shot. Have to be careful with interims. Don't think just beating Vandy and Mercer would be convincing enough, but if he also beats Bama, they are one of the top teams around and that would be something you would have to consider.
Definitely wouldn't look for a quick decision this year. It will probably be a while. If it is a quick decision, then it is most likely Durkin or one of the G5 candidates.
