Is the recruiting terrible? Absolutely not, there will be multiple flips on today thru Wednesday and dont be surprised if Auburn is in the top 15 in recruiting when its all said and done. Auburn is actually one 4 star from being in the top 15 with only 13 recruits.

On Bo Nix…Outside beating Bama in his freshman year, what has he done? I think Harsin told him that there will be an open competition and or he is bringing in transfers and Bo didnt like that.

On Tank, tremendous player but he wasnt the same Tank and has really regressed as a player. Will he be missed? Absolutely, but Auburn has a history of producing good backs, so no concern there. Auburn needs to work on their OL before we care what RB is leaving our Backfield.

Folks are gonna claim the “plains are burning” but tbh the “future is bright” just wait and see over these few days.

Yeah sure, man. I just love going 6-6, losing four straight to close the season, having two five star multiyear starters transfer, and relying on “late flips” to salvage the first year head coach’s first full recruiting season.

The truth is that all signs are pointing down and if Harsin can somehow spin this the other way, it’ll be miraculously impressive.

I think that might just be the glow from the dumpster fire...

The truth about Harsin and Auburn


The truth is that his weird Scientologist arse should have stayed out West.

The truth about Harsin is he’s name was floated for multiple job openings back on the west coast this year. That doesn’t happen by accident. Personally I think that his family hates it here in the south and he was willing to take the first big 5 conference job he could find out west but no one wanted him. Also, having a favorite son of the program like Bo Nix transfer away as a starter is a really bad sign.
Can he turn it around? Absolutely. Auburn is easy to recruit to if a coach gives any effort at all. Will he turn it around? All signs are currently pointing to no. Have faith though Auburn fans. The Auburn BOT won’t let him have another lackluster offseason like he’s having this year.

He is a freaking 1st year coach, who gave Bama everything, beat LSU at home for the 1st time in 20 years. If he can even manage to flip anyone its a big deal.

You sound like a bammer.

Rumors of him wanting to go to those west coast teams are message board fodder. If he wanted to go, he would have went.

Favorite son?? The same favorite son who couldnt string multiple good games together and got benched for 3 star QB in TJ Finley.

The kid got heart but no QB or his daddy is bigger than Auburn.

Hello denial. Anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance are right around the corner.

Saban went 7-6 and lost to ULM in 2007 as a 1st year coach. Shame on anyone thinking Auburn was better than a 7-5 team this year with how Gus left us.

The truth is that he is probably not a bad coach but is out of his league in the SEC. His selections of Mike Bobo and Derek Mason call his judgement into question assuming that he had a choice.

He also had a recruiting class ranked in the Top 5 when he lost to ULM.

Harsin’s name wasn’t just mentioned on message boards. He’s agent was definitely floating his name. Could it be just to make him seem wanted to the Auburn BOT? Yeah sure. None of the jobs wanted him though so we will never fully know.

Favorite son is in reference to his status among decision makers. Not fans. If a first year coach went 6-6 and ran Brodie out of the Bama program he’s leash would’ve gotten very short. You don’t think Daddy Nix has the ear of yellawood and others?

Last time i checked its not NSD yet and Harsin could get his team in the top 15 when all is said and done. If you dont believe it just watch tonight.

Ausberry 4 star DB commited to LSU and the #1 Juco safety will both be Auburn Tigers. That will put us in the top 20 today with 10 spots left, but yall dont follow recruiting.

What is repeated more, Saban’s recorded his first year, when someone has a underachieving first year coach or the Tom Brady Draft story when someone drops low in the draft

He also has the number 1 recruiting class in the nation and he wasn’t losing his best 2 players to the transfer portal. These two situations are not the same.
