Lots of big wins baw. We have not had one since he left. Not one
i would argue that @ LSU (first road win in the series after 10 straight losses), @ Arky (ranked #17 at gametime, finished #21) and Ole Miss (#10 at gametime, finished #11) in 2021 were all big wins

nothing since then though

yea, I think those are the only ones I can think of. So in the last 4 years, that is all. Not a lot

Gus was here what, 7 or 8 seasons? I think we won way more than double that in that span.


Im not pinning for Gus. But we are going backwards fast in the past 4 years. I would argue that it is easier to recruit now with the open check book. But maybe harder to win with Texas and OU in the SEC. It is hard to compare the times. Gus was also here when Bama was at its peak with Saban gathering all the local talent. That ship seems to have sailed opening up opportunities for us to grab some local guys

It always hard to compare.

He is a better coach than Harsin in every way. He is a much better game day coach than Hugh


Did you forget that Gus had no ability whatsoever to adjust and adapt to his game plan when it went array??

Gus created magical moments for 4 years and then got his contract and quit coaching.

Hugh is a pipeline HS coach from Gus that is even more warted and useless.

Heck no. And I didnt forget the good stuff either.

Where is Hughs good stuff so far? Or are you arguing that Harsin was a better coach?


When Hugh takes a 3-9 team to the natty and beats 3 #1 teams plus gives us some of the moments Gus did, andhas some of the big wins we had , then I will give him his props. But as long as he puts abousolute shite out there, I will call it what it is. shite

Auburn needs to return to being Auburn! Have a kick arse defense and run the ball. We tried everything else and it just hasn’t worked!
