I think Auburn fans would have no problem with a head coach being a dictator of the program, you just better succeed at what you do

I think this is what I’m wanting to point out

It was just a weird talking point to me so I was curious to know where people were at with it now

Fair. It is one of those things with Gus that it got to a point that it was pretty clear schematically he was falling behind, and it definitely hurt his recruiting. At that point, yea you need to stop being a dictator and get help, or you'll be gone which is what happened.

If Harsin can build the culture and staff he wants, go for it and win with it. If he can't do it solely with who he wants, then go out and find the people to help. It is what Dabo did at Clemson. He found what he was good and wasn't good at, and then brought in people to spearhead his offense and defense and let him do what he is good at.

Saban is the opposite of Dabo in a lot of ways. Both options work, you just need to make sure you have the right people.

I think its expected for him to be heavily involved when assembling a completely new staff. When a coach needs to be replaced, it'll be interesting to see what approach he takes. How involved will the OC/DC be in the process? Just based off the current hires, it seems like he was open to suggestions from Bobo at least
