You think? I don't know anyone besides some Auburn fans that really believe Malzahn was the best choice. He might be a great coach before it is all said and done, but one great season as a coordinator and one season as a head coach at a lower tier school could not have been the experience AU was looking for when replacing a coach that won a title just two years ago. It was almost as if they had self imposed probation and went out and got their Mike Shula to guide them through it. Much like Shula, Malzahn will be gone after no more than 4 seasons. I just hope they don't land their Saban after Malzahn.

this sums it up pretty good.
But wrong board...no reasonable discussion allowed on this board.

The story I was told was the PTB saw where the program was headed and why gus left and took a pretty big pay cut to be one year removed from the program and was told the job was his after the season was tanked by cheesewhiz. Had he stayed he would have been seen as part of the problem by the unwashed masses down on the plains and gus will go with the flow and not ask too many questions which tubs played the game at first but then thought beating Alabama 6 in a row he had gained some power.
