When folks stop trashing Trooper or Trooper has been found to have done something then I will stop. I know it is popular to trash Troop, but I would think you could handle one person who supports him. I am that person, if you ever spent time with him you would see that he is a really good guy.
ETA: I wish he had stayed, am good with a clean break, but stop the F:;() Troop bashing, that hurts Auburn and accomplishes nothing.

Scott Fountain would be my guess for TE & ST. Have no idea why it hasn't been announced. He would be a good choice IMO, but definitely not a "slam dunk" type of hire. That leaves RB coach and I have no idea....
Scott Fountain
Director of Player Personnel
Alabama native Scott Fountain, who served as tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator at Iowa State under Gene Chizik for two seasons, is in his second season in an administrative role with the Auburn football program. A native of East Brewton, Fountain played collegiately at Samford and also coached at the high school level for six seasons in Alabama, before coaching for the last 15 years at the collegiate level.
Fountain was a four-year letterman at offensive line at Samford under head coach Terry Bowden, starting every game during his four-year career from 1984-87.
Fountain, 42, served as an assistant coach at Flomaton High School and at his high school alma mater, W.S. Neal, for one season each before being named head coach at Frisco City High School in 1990. After a three-year stint at Frisco City, he was head coach at Monroe County for a year.
Fountain's college coaching career began in 1994 as an offensive graduate assistant at Florida State. The Seminoles made postseason appearances in the Sugar Bowl (1995, 1997) and the Orange Bowl (1996) and won three ACC titles during his three seasons.
Fountain went to Central Florida in 1997, where he spent seven seasons as an assistant, serving on the same staff with Chizik from 1998-01. He was the offensive guards and centers coach, while also serving as co-recruiting coordinator for his first season, before taking over as the offensive tackles and tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator position for his final six seasons. UCF's offense ranked among the nation's top 30 six times during his tenure.
Following his stint at Central Florida, Fountain was the offensive line coach at Middle Tennessee State from 2004-05 and was the assistant head coach and offensive line coach at Georgia Southern in 2006.
At Iowa State, Fountain had a tremendous impact as tight ends coach, as in 2008, Cyclone tight ends combined to catch 40 balls for 532 yards and three TDs. ISU's 2008 recruiting class produced 11 true freshmen who contributed last season, including freshman All-America kick returner Leonard Johnson and wide receiver Darius Darks, who set the ISU freshman record for receptions.
Fountain had been retained by Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads and was coaching tight ends and offensive tackles before his appointment at Auburn.
Fountain earned a bachelor's degree from Samford in 1988 and a master's degree from Florida State in 1998.

This. Defending him doesn't do any good either.

We've been talking to sources for a week and hearing Bisaccia's name. We'll have more in the War Room, but saying he's a leading candidate may be an understatement.

Also, random poster guy on bunker says of the two hires one name has been mentioned on the board (Horton?) & the other is unknown to most (Bisaccia?). Also says possibility of a former AU D player being hired.
1. Horton? Why hasn't he been hired and announced? Makes no sense.
Will not happen.
2. Bisaccia? Has a game left on the schedule and then will be out of work. Makes sense.
Will happen.
3. Rocker? Has a game left on the schedule and then may or may not be out of work. Probably will be. Makes sense.
Will not happen.

We'd never make the playoff with Takeo.

I saw that. Any stud backs come to mind he would have coached on those teams

You're right. We would just be crowned champion and we would cancel the playoffs due to fear of the Takeo
