Your coach lost to the same Vandy team with all his talent Saban left


Plenty are pissed about that loss, my man. But are you seriously defending a 1-6 SEC home record? The talent excuse only goes so far. AU isnt playing UGA, LSU and Bama every week. Acting like underutilized talent like Hunter is anything but coaching is hard to understand.

WOW! If Kevin barnbinsky has turned on freeze, things must be even more toxic than usual down on the plains.

Talent, especially at QB, goes along way. Auburn's recruiting has been poorly managed for multiple years and that takes down a whole team. He isn't going to make up for all that in 1 year of his recruiting and with Thorne at QB. No HC is. His recruits are making plays but the players he hasn't been able to replace yet are costing the team badly.

All of this information was available to AU before hiring him. He was a perfect AU cultural fit that checked all the same boxes that have kept AU from reaching its potential.

Occasionally beats Alabama but otherwise average: check
Weird blend of coach, Baptist preacher, and a come to Jesus redemption story: check
Will do whatever the boosters tell him: check

Freeze is a dead Auburn Man walking. He won’t be on sideline next year. No way can they keep such a mediocre coach.

Hugh Freeze is the Eddie Haskell of coaches.

If he signs this class that's top 10 it will be his first time with a team with top talent in the sec.
He signed 3 top 10 classes at Ole Miss, one of which was a top 5 class

I meant his first team at Auburn with top level talent. He's been playing with leftovers of Harsin's players.

Our defense is actually good. Shut down Vandy. Our offense is a dumpster fire. Our kicker being sick has had a big impact also, but he needs to focus on getting well. Freshman kicker has a big case of the yips and Freeze is not handling him well.

So you don’t have the most talent in the SEC. But you do have one of the best running backs in the SEC. Let’s not get him the ball, Let’s just keep it in the shitty quarterback’s hands or have him throw it to freshmen and shitty upperclass receivers.

That seems like sound coaching.

He beat Saban and pocketed millions. The guy's a genius.

Mismanaging the clock, bad game planning and dumb in game decisions are obviously all Peyton Thorne issues. An SEC coach can’t be expected to win more than one conference game at home in two years because of Thorne. Cal and NMSt have a talent advantage that no coach could overcome when Peyton Thorne is your QB. Other teams that overcome bad QB play don’t understand that with Peyton Thorne it’s a whole different thing. Giving an all-SEC running back coming off a game where he dragged the team to a road win against a pretty good D volume carries makes no sense when you are dealing with Peyton Thorne at QB. It all makes sense now.

Kinda like how Saban left a roster of 5*s on Defense but DeBoer couldn't even remotely stop Vandy. I guess yall should fire him too.

Bama fans have been calling for the Dc’s head ever since.

You understand that with Freezus, this isn’t about just Vandy, right? Wrap your head around 1-6 in conference at JHS.

Its been explained on here more times than not. Haters are blocking anything out that doesn't blame Freeze's coaching.

We warned Auburn fans and they did not listen. The best thing Auburn could do right now is cut ties with Hugh Freeze but fortunately for the rest of the SEC I think they’re gonna give him another year because of recruiting.

You understand that any coach needs players to win and if the QB isn't helping or especially hurting the team they aren't going to win no matter who is coaching. Saban lost to a garbage ULM team on his coaching, if you ignore talent like Freeze haters are trying to do.

Haters don't usually get this worked up over a bad coach. They want him around instead of campaigning for others to fire him.
