Again bullshite. It was put out by ex-coaches (Mason/Williams/Bobo) and members of the AD. Some people who reported to Greene. Boosters never got involved in that issue and Harsin did not with that issue. He actually apologized for his behavior. Those were not termination offenses but doesn't look good for future employment.

He’s got skeletons in his closet.

He also refused to meet with roughly 5-6 5* recruits after a game earlier in the season. Official, unofficial and secret visitors…

Most of the head coaches in the state of Alabama have never met or talked to him.

There’s a reason Auburn’s recruiting is as bad as it is.

Then we have the matter of the coaching staff. Derek Mason leaving for less pay in another conference. Firing Mike Bobo to hire Austin Davis, who stayed a whole month, and then begging Coach Keys to take the promotion from WR coach to OC (which he already turned down). Oh, and firing a WR coach 4 games in to hire Coach Keys as the WR coach.

The Potato Gang can’t recruit for shite, BTW. Anything Auburn has gotten in these recruiting classes has been from other coaches, primarily ones from the south.

Bryan Harsin has been over his head from the beginning.

Let’s not even mention him failing completely in the transfer portal for QB after letting a a legacy 5* QB transfer. He refused to target the OL in the portal and it’s Auburn’s biggest weakness.

Just fricking terrible.

THE LIST including dozens of names, but not a single mention of the guy that was actually hired




You know the story and the timeline of the posting, but never admit it. I have said that the list came out the Sunday after Gus was fired. A committee was set up to interview candidates but did not include Greene. AU President found out about it at the end of the week and was pissed off. He told Greene to select the next coach and he talked to one coach Harsin. He wasn't on the list because the PTB were not interested in Harsin.

You have read the explanation, but you continue to play ignorant. Or maybe it is not facade.

I have no affiliation with IP, but I have also read this.

Given the PTB have wanted Bryan Harsin gone from year one, it’s at least plausible.

All that shite has been made public. That is the part I have the hardest issue with people on here. It is not inside information released on a website; it has been published in major publications. I guess too many people depend on information they read here and do not read anywhere else.

Being shitty recruiters wouldn't be grounds for firing, imo. After all, a lot of us common fans suggested he might not be a very good recruiter. Auburn took a chance on that. Things like inviting 30 recruits and then not showing up, though, sounds like egregious failure to do the job you were hired to do. There is being a bad recruiter and failing to even attempt to recruit.

Agreed.

Plus, he just sucks at his job.

It’s unreal how bad the offense has been in the second half of the last 8-9 P5 games. Unreal.

I’m an Auburn fan to the core, and I’ll give any coach a chance, but this one is a no-brainer. He’s got to go.

It should be. We'd all be fired from our jobs if we refused to do a part of it.

You did. But I only talked to Alan Greene once a year or so. We weren't able to tell him.

Sounds like he's done the latter, at least that's the word from the HS coaches.

I swear I saw stories after the February crap where Harsin & his staff were on a massive tour to visit every high school in the state?

First of all, under the contract there are not performance standards for firing. That is why you have buyouts. You do have behavior standards and those are on par with other University employees. The second issue is Auburn did not take a chance on Harsin. Greene and Gogue took a chance, and both are gone. Harsin wasn't well received from day 1. I personally preferred him over Steele and liked his attitude.

If I’m Harsin, I’m sitting back and letting AU figure it out, but I’m not letting go of a single cent they owe me.


It happens all the time. Paul Chryst had $20 million left on his contract. He was a pretty solid coach, who was fired mid-season after a bad start. If anyone deserved the $20mm, it was him. But it was negotiated down to $11mm. Who knows the reason. Maybe he gets $11mm all at once rather than over time. Or maybe he wants to coach again and doesn't want the label among university admin of being difficult.

Rule of thumb is that all contracts are negotiable.

The issue wasn't his staff, it was Harsin. He was supposed to knock on doors. Half his staff are from the South and know the recruiting game. He is the one who has dropped the ball with recruits and their coaches.

You might have, but the HS coaches have said otherwise. It was either half-assed or never happened.
