What makes you think the next coach isn't lined up? it's been three days.

Jumbo was easy, he didn't have FSU in bowl contention.

Don’t believe what you are reading from some of the Auburn websites. I have seen the list, it doesn’t match what is going on.

It wasn't fans, it was social media.

Ahh yes, the booming metropolis of College Station, TX.

Talk about self-aware...

I don’t have an agenda and they do not have someone outside the AD feeding them. That is the difference.

Auburn's inflated sense of self-importance is something that I've found as odd since we've come over to the SEC. Hell, I don't think I could point to Auburn on a map when we were in the Big 12.


And nobody can point to a trophy in the aTm case that matters.

Are you joking? Is a hodge podge of meh rumors across the board. You're linked to Kiffin (best option), Cristobal, Steele, Clark.

Jimbo was easy? I was told by everyone on this board, the media, and in between that he was unattainable and why would he ever goto A&M.

What was A&M thinking giving Jimbo 10 guaranteed years when the wheels fall off in 5 with him running shite?

This must be your first AU coaching search.

They tend to get weird. Not Tennessee weird, but very entertaining. We are the JetGate school, bro. Last time around we were on the verge of hiring Kirby, Petrino, and Gary Patterson. So strap in.

And never forget the guy who met Chizik at the airport screaming "We want a winner, Not a loser!"

Jimbo won 13 games his 5th year at FSU. And 10 wins his 6th year. Then another 10 wins his 7th year.

Possibly the targeted coach has a game this weekend and the announcement will be made afterward. I think the search committee is just BS.

The interviews have been lined up since after the Iron Bowl. This is not something that was hastily done. Story will be told soon. I think the last interview is today.

We owed Gus 28 million, we gave him a buyout of 21 million... saving Auburn 7 million. You give that to Steele if you do not get your top choice (Christobal) and it cost you nothing to switch from Gus Tits Malzahn to Keven combover Steele.

Steele is a great DC. He’s a washed up Hc. This is a horrible move by Auburn but we all said the same about Orgeron. Never know.

But it appears they'd didn't have a plan in place for a replacement.


I didn't see one Auburn "insider" predict on Saturday that Malzahn would be fired on Sunday... NOT ONE...

So take with a grain of salt everything you read from Auburn "insiders"

I have no doubt that there is a plan in place - you and I just don't know what it is
