Im thinking they are worried that maybe Harsin just might be good
No one is worried that Harsin will be good enough to compete in the SEC

Because nothing says "no one is worried" like 2-3 threads a day...in June.

So when Auburn fans were always saying shite about Shula and "Fear the Thumb" type stuff, what was really going on was Auburn fans were worried very deeply about Shula?
And "Honk if you sacked Brodie" was really just about Auburn fans being extremely scared of Brodie.
Well shite, I thought you guys were just making fun of us, but apparently I had it all wrong.

No one at Auburn will ever even remember losing a 3* WR if Harsin replaces him with a 5*.

In 2006? No, I doubt there were many posters here starting threads about Shula then.

Again, 15 years ago? And that was AFTER we sacked the frick out of Brodie.
If you don't see the difference between (Bama fans mostly) starting multiple threads about a new coach who hasn't coached a single game yet at Auburn and Mike Shula and Brodie Croyle, I can't really help you.
Is "apples and oranges" the right way to describe those two situations?
I, like a lot of people were skeptical of Saban coming back to the SEC and his longevity. I guess you could make that comparison, but again, that was 15 years ago and I doubt you would be able to find many threads supporting that argument from that long ago. But I'm also not a fricking troll like the OP Daniel either who started Harsin threads 2 days in a row.

If Harsin works out you, all your alters, all you personalities, and all the retards like you will look dumb....which I'm sure you're used to, you have to be to screw up orders in a drive thru.

How would you consider him "working out"? As in, what are the realistic expectations for this guy?

I'd say realistic is doing what every other coach had done there since the early 80s. Would you say that isn't realistic? If you have to ask what they've done I won't be able to help you.

Winning the SEC or producing an undefeated season like our last 5 head coaches, who all had worse resumes than Harsin. Hopefully gaining back the ground on UGA that Chizik and Gus gave up. And god forbid, beating LSU in fricking Baton Rouge.

Some consistency would be a start...

Is getting back to back orders right in the drive thru considered working out in your career?

Eh, it is a start. Pretty much every Auburn fan i've talked to understands how much Gus fricked our program, so the majority want to see by year 3 or so, we are at the point that 9/10 wins in the regular season are the general projections. If things shape up nicely in a given year, competing in SECCG and whatever beyond there.

Pretty much what we want. The mold Harsin needs to follow is similar to what Dabo did at Clemson. What he has been doing so far I have liked, and it definitely mirrors a lot of what they did early on to get themselves from very up and down to year in and year out consistency. Once you get to that point, if you can start striking gold in recruiting, you can jump to that upper echelon.
I have no illusions that we may or may not be able to replicate that type of success, especially with what we have to compete against locally, but that it the general framework Harsin seems to be trying to put in place. We will see if he is able to be successful with it or not.

41 is a good guy. He's not a troll like some of the others in this thread.
He had a better bead on Gus than most Auburn fans did the last 8 years.

Right now Auburn is a wait 'n see type program with a lot to prove on the field. IMO, a change in offensive philosophy will be the main thing prospects will be looking for this year - then Harsin can build on that.

Exactly. Harsin has done a really good job so far this summer getting some really good kids on campus, many of which have had some pretty quick turn around visits shortly after which is a great sign. As you said though, it is very obvious a lot of in that wait and see mode with us. OL will still be the biggest wildcard to see how long it takes us to repair that reputation that Gus ruined.
