I keep asking why we would Jimbo who has underachieved at FSU in the ACC to be the headcoach at Auburn in the SECw and have not gotten an answer

I think some of us are being desperate in thinking that coaches like Fisher and PetriNO, who have never won big anywhere else, are going to magically turn it around at Auburn.

The next Auburn coaches primary job will be to win the State of Alabam. PetriNO has never beat Saban and Fisher is one of his many substandared minions. The next coach needs to be fearless and not intimidated to get head-to-head with Saban, anything less will be a failure

Because hiring Jimbo would be a big splash.

We would steal a well known coach from a big name program that has had a track record of doing at least pretty well.

It is appealing to people to be an ESPN story
