I do not believe AU has a first round QB on the roster or in the signing class.

What round was Stetson Bennett drafted in? 1st round, right?

Who was our generational player in 1993 when we won every game on our schedule? In 2004? In 2013 when we were 13 seconds away from another NC.
The data is there, top-10 puts you in the game. What difference does 7 to 5 make? None.

What a dumb statement

Glad everyone is happy with him because the buyout on top of ex-coaches still on “payroll” would make it difficult (financially) to hire a replacement.

Not everyone is happy with him but he’s not going anywhere now and after all the $ we’ve seen thrown around by Auburn, LSU, Florida the last couple of years I don’t think firing him and hiring a replacement will be much of an issue.
quote:

Bryan Harsin is in the first season of a six-year contract at Auburn, where he took over as head coach late last December. The Tigers’ new coach will earn $5 million this year, with annual increases of $100,000 each January. That makes Harsin, for the 2021 season, the 19th-highest paid head coach in college football and the seventh-highest paid coach in the SEC, according to USA Today’s annual head coach salaries database, which was updated Thursday.

quote:

Harsin’s $5 million salary this year puts him squarely in the middles of the pack in the SEC and ranks behind Alabama’s Nick Saban ($9.7 million), LSU’s Ed Orgeron ($9 million), Florida’s Dan Mullen ($7.57 million), Texas A&M’s Jimbo Fished ($7.5 million) Georgia’s Kirby Smart ($7.13 million) and Kentucky’s Mark Stoops ($5.26 million) among SEC coaches. Those six coaches rank first, second, sixth, seventh, eighth and 15th nationally, respectively, in salary for 2021. Harsin’s $5 million salary is equal to that of Mississippi State coach Mike Leach this year.

but that hand was probably forced on him because of Bobo's recruiting ties to the SEC footprint and that decision has been rectified


That was my assumption as well. This OC hire is far from a homerun but I do like the idea better than an old SEC retread. He made some strides in recruiting from where we were this summer, but he will have to pick things up next year to get the players to compete in the SEC.

I'm happy thag you're happy with whoever your coach is.


Thanks, I appreciate that I have your approval!
I'd rather have Harsin than either if those two at this point. That may change in the next few years, but I'm content with Harsin for now. Neither of those coaches are proven head coaches by any means.
Not to be a grammar Nazi, but...

And no, Alabama's success doesn't affect the way I view college football at all. I'm more concerned about Auburn righting the ship than I am about anybody else.
When did we start playing 12 games?

Pay Dye and Tommy Tuberville both won one less game than Harsin did in their first year. That probably doesn't fit your narrative though, does it?
UAB might win but it would probably be in OT
