Both coaches are failing to meet expectations after signing top classes


Deboer won 11 games, made the SEC championship game, made the CFP last season.

By comparison auburn has not had a winning season this decade and haven’t won 11 games since 2013.

Deboer’s results last season would be in the top 10 greatest seasons ever for auburn..

Kalen inherited more 5 stars than anyone in history not named Larry Coker, but failed to capitalize by your recent standards (unless championships are no longer your standard?). Are..... you thinking that I'm arguing that Auburn hasn't been bad? Freeze inherited Harsin and back end Gus players. We've sucked. How is that necessary for me to say? My comparison is coaches not meeting the expectations set for them. Kelan (winning it all) Freeze (just don't suck). How is this hard? Kalen handed keys to a Lamborghini..... Freeze handed keys to Altima...... both lost a race. Which one is worse?

I am saying anyone whose expectation is a national championship every season is destined for misery.

This is very disingenuous. Deboer did inherit a lot of 5 stars - but just very briefly. The majority transferred. Ohio State was especially ruthless. Here is who Deboer inherited - and where they transferred.

There are only 4 five star recruits on Alabama’s roster who are not Deboer recruits; zero from the 2022 class,1 from the 2023 class, 3 from the 2024 class.

2024 Class: WR Ryan Williams, CB Jaylen Mbakwe (transferred to Georgia Tech), CB Zay Mincey, and CB Zabien Brown.

2023 Class: EDGE Keon Keeley (transferred to Notre Dame), S Caleb Downs (transferred to Ohio State), OT Kadyn Proctor (transferred to Iowa and then transferred back to Alabama - now in NFL) , CB Dezz Ricks (transferred to Texas A&M), DL James Smith (transferred to Ohio State), EDGE Yhonzae Pierre, LB Qua Russaw (transferred to Ohio State).

2022 Class: EDGE Jeremiah Alexander (transferred to Clemson) and DL Jaheim Oatis (transferred to Colorado)

That is a horribly inappropriate use of that gif. But that is to be expected from you.

And he lost his own ban bet.

It is fun to go back and see all the hope. A lot of Auburn fans really seemed to believe Hugh Freeze would be Auburn football’s savior.

He doesn't care if he's ultimately wrong. He just wants to get as big of a rise out of you as possible, and you are the easiest fan base to trigger on this board, and you are the single easiest among them. Keep going dalton. We know you can't help yourself.

While I truly enjoy making fun of bama at every possible opportunity, recruiting in June is dumb



I don't know man. OU has all but 3 of their remaining targets committed. Bama will come up from 61st, but I seriously dount they're going to be a top 25 class.

tbh, our record against UGa over the last couple of decades pisses me off far more than our record against Bama

we haven’t lost to a bad Bama team this century, and beat some damn good ones

but we’ve lost to some absolutely awful UGa teams in that stretch

After all these years of Auburn sidewalk fan historians deciding what Alabama titles are real or not, they made their own with even fewer legitimate claims.
