Well you guys did give up 11 to Clemson but I forget, that's all on Hand. Nothing to do with a defensive front full of first rounders and a QB making his first true road start.

Most Auburn fans are happy with this move, even though it might hurt the chances of us landing our top OL targets to complete our 2018 class. Having a competent OL coach, on/off the field, is much more important to our success.

I'd say half that was on Stidham and the other half OL. Not all 11 were on 1 vs. the other

AU fans demanded perfection, so he left.
Auburn fans would simply like for 2* players NOT to dominate their OL in future bowl games.

You might have a point if other teams didn't do the same thing. In fact the only team that wasn't real effective against this OL was UGA(Game 1) and Bama. That was the only real chip for Gus to keep Hand around.

He helped Auburn beat two number ones teams in a month and had them going into December with a RB competing for an invite to New York and a team with a chance to make the playoff.

Yet he needed to be fired, isn't worth a shite and Bama fans are the unreasonable ones.

Id rather lose recruits and have a good coach who can develop players than to have an incompetent one.

I've actually defended Hand using your same arguments. I'd also say that our passing routes take too long to develop, making the QB vulnerable. My main issue is how the last 2 seasons we weren't able to finalize our offensive line unit until about mid way through the season.

You seem to be insistent on us looking at this unfavorably. Sorry you're disappointed.

Again, watch the games. Believe me, this is not a case of picking on a position coach.

LOL Keith tweeted that y'all are looking at Brad Davis, UF's former OL coach and Mizzou's current OL coach.

OL looked plenty good against Bama and UGA in November.
