There is no coach in football that we could have hired that would have kept all the guys on the roster.

Hell, top level programs who have made no staff changes will lose players. It is the times we are in. IF people don't like the landscape of todays college football..............I hear cricket is always looking for new fans.

This story doesn’t add up to me. We didn’t know if Durkin was staying until after Golesh was hired

That makes too much sense.

Normally I’d be against this but it would be awesome for the extra practice and Alex getting to really know our personnel currently enrolled.

Plus, you would see who opts out and is probably hitting the portal.

he just isn't a PG.

Good W. Thankfully Overton stepped up. Hall is money. We played sloppy and still got a convincing win. Survive and advance.

Auburn only has 11 commits right now...they fired their coach a while back.

They will get some flips in the coming days with the good hire and DC.

They will also do well in the portal

I expect us to get some flips.........and I do think we go portal heavy this year.

I am not really worried about "signing rankings" this year. We need to keep our young talent and bring in a solid portal class.

Let's get the band back together with a new front man.

...............and drummer, keyboard, symbols, and triangle. Just keep the rest of the band.

Our last HC came out and said no booster meddled under his tenure. Lowder has no bearing on anything any longer. He was the one that wanted everything done his way.

So you're saying it's not true that Jon Sumrall pulled his interest because the program went behind his back to extend a DC that he hadn't even interviewed?

I didn't realize Cohen was a booster. Who knew?

You would think Auburn would make a statement ASAP. Isn't tomorrow Signing Day?

I think they are both good hires.

The question is......what did each school need? I am not sure what UF needed. I know Auburn needed a HC that can put points on the board. I think we got that.

Im sorry if you did. It was the lone consistent bright spot of the whole season.

shite, the D is the only bright spot the last few years. IF we had any kind of competent O this season, we are talking about a playoff bid right now.

I really do hope DJ stays, but the HC should absolutely be able to make that call (if DJ is actually open to staying and continue to be one of the top paid DCs in the country).

You won't find a bigger Durkin fan than me. I have made that known.

That being said..........Golesh can't make Durkin stay. IF Golesh wants to go a different path, then go a different path. I hope we give Golesh everything he needs.......and then get out of his way. Just have some trust he will get us back to where we should be.
