I’m hearing it’s Jimbo’s to turn down.

Apparently he’s ready to get back into coaching and has a great relationship with the Auburn PTB.

Jimbo + Durkin as DC would be something.

Add Bobby Petrino as OC.

A lot of people are waking up this morning and asking themselves, "wait, why not Jimbo?"

It makes a lot of sense the more you think about it.

I think Auburn should call Butch Jones.... they have had a ton of success with former Arkansas State coaches. NEXT...

Sounds like most people dont realize that Durkin and Petrino were Jimbo's coordinators the year he was fired.

I got the sense that Petrino would never work for him again because he meddled too much with the offense. That is his Achilles heel. I think he could be a great CEO coach if he put trust in his OC like he did with Elko and Durkin on the defensive side.

His name is being floated out there to condition the Auburn fan base to accept “anyone but Jimbo”

That is how Auburn ended up with Bryan Harsin. “Anyone but Kevin Steele”

Don't underestimate the importance of knowing the boosters. Jimbo goes waaaay back with those baws. They know Jimbo.

If they hire Jimbo I’ll take an upper decker in Yellerfellers toilet.

Is it just me or does Jimbo look like a full grown midget?
