The main issue with Petrino is he would split the fanbase, as you can see in this thread. So he better win fast if got hired.


A split would be much better than what we had when they hired Chizik. Everyone was pissed with the hire.

Auburn people will do what Auburn people do and that's jump on and support the team. The wins will cure all.

Well...only about 5% of the fan base supported the Chizik hire when it happened.

Actually, I was indifferent to it. I took the attitude of "I'm going to wait and see what happens".

I waited, thanks for the MNC in 2010, but let me help you pack your office Mr. Chizik.

I'm not sure I can support Auburn with BMFP in charge.

The "I won't support AU if we hire BP" statements are the funniest. If Petrino comes in here and wins, EVERYBODY will jump on board. That's a fact.

Winning cures all.

Thread got stale so I decided to call it.

I counted 59 votes.

34 votes for yes - 57.63%

25 votes for no - 42.37%

Challenge me on some votes if you like.


This is a very high % of support compared to Auburn's last hire.

I was one of the people pissed with the Chizik hire myself (before he hired his staff anyway). But there is a big difference between thinking we did much worse hiring a coach than we should have, and actively hating the coach we hire because he is a huge scumbag. Winning doesn't necessarily fix that.

My only comparison for myself would be the last 2-3 years under Terry Bowden, I didn't care what our record was, I wanted that little fricker gone.
