re: Auburn, would you really be ok if Gus left for Arkansas?

Yes, even though Gus has had some great success, he hasn’t taken advantage of it. Auburn is a program that has everything needed to be successful at a high level except a coach that can maintain the success. Tubs got lazy, Chizik was out of his element and Gus has been too loyal to his system to evolve his coaching. None of them were considered great coaches before Auburn and none of AUs ex-coaches have had much success after they leave. AU has now sent a message that they will pay a coach a top 5 salary which could be attractive to the top coaches out there.
