Take a look around you, it's not just college sports. The rat race has taken over just about every industry. Admittedly, the college sports landscape held out a little longer, but it chases the almighty dollar all the same.

Except that buyouts are a thing? It's not exactly like at-will employee termination in standard work environments. :banghead:

You are welcome to overlay the win loss record on top of it and see how the loss of in-house qb development coincides with the downward trajectory of the program.
I think you would find a lot of programs have had this same dilemma. Maybe not so much with the overall win-loss record, but with high school QBs and staying in one spot. Used to be that players would stack up at a position and wait for their turn to showcase, but once the transfer portal became a thing - that's a relic of the past.

I think you are being a tad obtuse.
Any GM related work and player evaluations completed while he was working for the athletic department would remain with the athletic department after his dismissal.
Being that he was working under Freeze, his portal targets and info would be related to the targets that Freeze wanted - so when he is let go and Golesh comes in and wants evaluations on players he wants, they wouldn't necessarily overlap? Maybe? However if his job was to broadly evaluate all SEC players (just theorizing here) and he didn't turn over the analysis upon leaving, then he would be sued. Just like with any proprietary info.

That would make sense for the portal additions.
I agree the half decade setback estimation is probably pessimistic, however we've essentially been in the wilderness since the Gus tenure ended. During a highly formative new era of player movement and compensation, Auburn football has more or less been a punchline. With each passing year remaining in the wilderness we will quickly lose the relevance we once had.

You're right, good QBs don't come here.
Thorne was a turnover machine at Michigan State and continued to be one here.
Finley was just underwhelming all around. Nobody was particularly excited for him.

It's funny. The knock on Arnold was he took too many sacks. He started turning the ball over as the season wore on too though. Not like Brown, dude just loves throwing to the other team.
Huepel isn't married to the QB who started the game like Golesh is to Brown, but you gotta try something different.
Shuffled the offensive line already, shuffled the running backs. QB change!

I personally find it hilarious that anyone would be interested in buying any of the secrets Auburn football has.

It could change as the game develops but Baylor isn't looking great against an also not great Colorado.
I so wanted to believe that Baylor focused on bringing in good D-line talent and THAT was why we struggled so much. Sadly we know now it's just a shite offensive line :lol:
Edit: that little white WR just ate em up for a TD tho

My guts tell me to lay off the hot sauce.
Too early to tell anything. He sure coached up an excellent gameplan against Auburn (not that this is hard these days). They'll get into the meat of their schedule and THAT will tell you about him as a coach, same situation with Golesh.

We haven't had a thousand yard receiver since the 90s. Haven't had a competent offensive line since the late 2010s.
Kinda over it, doesn't seem to matter who the coach or the players are. Same shite product on the field.

This is so much worse since allegedly the surprise Durkin contract lost us Summrall (?)
What is the % of 3rd and longs that get converted against Durkin since he's been here :lol:

The guy with two INTs?
Agree, if this was peak Auburn that was trading wins with Alabama, LSU, and Georgia I wouldn't be so concerned. Our only gimme conference game is Arkansas this year, and they could beat us if we have a big turnover game.

“Wow Coach, do you need me to leave,” Baker-Mazara allegedly responded, “because I don’t understand this animosity.”
CBM allegedly said this. I have doubts.
2027 is honestly one of the toughest schedules I can remember ANY team having. It's the stuff I used to schedule for myself when I played the NCAA football game back in the day.
I don't think Golesh will be ready and I don't think any coach outside of the current top programs would be either.
