My personal opinion is it's possible, but I seriously doubt his ability long term. He has made some really bone-headed general game management decisions that would present an issue regardless of any personnel issue.

The fan base is a little divided as far as whether or not to give him a 3rd year. I think he should be given his due chance but it's complicated because of the new stadium. We really don't want a disappointing season for our first year in a new stadium.

-He even said, “ I have it on good authority the Malzahns would NEVER leave Auburn for Arkansas if they feel comfortable here. And, well, they feel comfortable here..”

In summary, he gone.

Thanks. I knew the stadium might be an issue, but you might not want to break in an entirely new staff in the first year of a new stadium either.

I'm friends with his mom, BTW. Great lady, have never met him (he was a GA under Dye back in the 80s).
