Pivoting away from the gossip hour and taking a look at the staff as a whole —
Anyone else noticing Harsin heavily influencing the position coach hires?
This was a bug talking point on the last head coach. Personally, it’s always seemed normal to me. Just curious what the board’s interpretation is on this now

Honestly think the biggest reason why TWill wasn’t even considered is because Harsin really, really likes Schmedding and knew he was coming with him to Auburn. Previous DC/ILB coach. That’s his guy. And Mason, if Auburn is successful, just might not be a long term DC. At 51, he’s young enough to be serious about another head coaching gig, sooner than later
It’s impressive to me that Harsin and Mason have two younger, former DCs as position coaches (although Watts is coaching ST too). Seems clear that he sees defensive coordinator material out of both of those guys once they have a few years of SEC experience under their belts
