Good question, actually.

If we are talking specifically about who I would want for Auburn, at this given time with our current roster, I'd have to take Mullen. I think his offensive philosophy is better suited to our mix of talent.

However, if this was a generic program looking for long-term success, I think I'd go with Bert. Of the three, he's the only one who's had championship-caliber teams. I still think he's destined to be an 8-4 type HC at Arky, but in the right situation he could build a powerhouse. Mullen would likely kill it in a smaller conference, but I don't know if he'll ever get to the next level at an AQ school.

As for Boom, I don't know what the hell has happened with him. Maybe the light will come on for him eventually, but there's absolutely no excuse for last year at a place with Florida's resources. He may be Chiz 2.0.

Haven't you heard? Injuries caused them to go 4-8. None of the other teams they played had injuries.

If you gave Mullen better assistants and recruiting advantages (like he'd have at a place like bama/LSU/UGA/etc) he'd consistently win at a high level.... he wouldn't be nick saban or anything, but he'd win a conference title given enough time.

I'm thankful AU didn't hire Boom, even though at the time, I kind of wanted him.

You do get a 2 for 1 deal with Bert.

I'd really like to see how Muschamp does with less injuries this year, but to answer right now I'd say Mullen.

BOOM. I think he is a very good coach. The injury bug just decimated UF last year. They had third stringers starting by the end of the year. There isn't a single SEC team, not even bama, that could be successful doing that.

At QB - 4th stringer - The third stringer was RS and because the season was shite they skipped him and went to 4th
At LB - walkons were starting

Good point, but I still say Bama goes to a bowl with the same team UF had (probably Shreveport though).

No one goes anywhere with Skyler Morningwheg as their starting QB. Noodles have stronger arms.

Saban, a much more experienced coach than Muschamp, may have struggled to 6-6 last year, but I mean, it's hard to say and IMO that's an unfair comparison to make since it was only Muschamp's third year.

No coach currently coaching would have been very successful with last years group of coaches mixed with the ridiculous injury situation.

But consider that Muschamp did beat 4 top 15 teams in one year in 2012, something Saban has NEVER done.
