The more surprising part is apparently Les is going to hire him at Kansas. Stylistically, Lindsey doesn't run a Miles offense. So that should be interesting

The whole "fire the coordinators" routine is the dumbest theater in all of CFB. We all know it's bullshite most of the time and tends to only waste time and money.

That said, I think Chip probably wanted out anyway.

Interesting since Gus still calls plays. Who will the next sacrificial lamb be to crawl upon the altar for Gus's mickey mouse offense?

Shouldn't Guster be calling the plays anyway since he is an offensive genius?

Tubby set the bar the highest when it came to blaming/firing coordinators in his yrs at the Black Bears and AU. Gus is climbing fast, however.

Interesting...

Gus throwing people under the Gus bus?


Coordinator at Alabama - get a head coaching gig elsewhere.

Coordinator at Auburn - get blamed and thrown under the bus for the HC's inadequacies.

Maybe Gus’ offensive schemes and philosophies just suck, doesn’t matter who works under him.

The big question is was Chip Lindsey exposed as being a turd when it comes to calling plays at the highest level... or is he what he appeared to be before he was hired at Auburn? Which is to say a very talented OC who gets the best out of mediocre talent.

His stay at Auburn was a disaster. No one can deny that. Stidham went from being a first round pick to being someone who hopes that the CFL is hiring. An Auburn offense worth a fart in a hurricane probably puts them at 10 wins this year.

How will he do at Kansas? Well the defenses will be putrid but the only P5 team with less offensive talent then Kansas this last season was Arkansas. He will not have a lot to work with. If Miles and Lindsey pull out a decent season next year then we can blame Gus for this year I'd think.
