I'm not happy with Gus but I'm also not sure a constant coaching carousel is the right answer to fixing it
I agree, which is why it'd be ideal if Gus would suddenly lose the stubborn narcissism overnight. But he very likely won't, and it will continue to be a drag on this program.
If we go 8-4 this year or worse, that is 4 years of total mediocrity in a row. For a solid stretch, it seemed Auburn was a very dangerous team in big games. We're going on 4 seasons now without a win in a truly major game (despite playing 2-3 a year).
Now if we lose 3 games but win in Baton Rouge and beat Alabama or Georgia and play our remaining rivals close, I'm of the mind that we don't don't make a change. I don't mind growing pains, even if that includes losing to shittier teams, if nobody wants to play us by the end of the year.
But more likely, we'll get solidly beaten by 2/3, and eek out a win against whichever one turns out to be an 8-4 type of team. We'll stumble into a bowl game lacking clarity about what this team is about. And Gus will be retained.
