Chaos Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 16 hours ago, EVA said: Wow, that coaching search really went off the rails. I mean, he’s a fine coach, but he was not even in the discussion until, well, right about now. Looking forward to all the Auburn fans who have toed the SEC party line about Boise not actually being any good for he past, oh, 15 years now suddenly talk up how great Harsin is. I'm a pro Boise Auburn fan, but I've actually watched them play some. It's a C+ hire that could turn into an A- hire. It's an Allen Greene hire, which is huge when you factor how much the BoT screwed this up. Kid is from Boise. Boise was his dream job, so he must think he can do big things at elite football. However, he just took the hardest job in college football. One that has to play and recruit against Bama/A&M/Georgia/LSU every single year. May the odds be in his favor and War Eagle!

EVA Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Weren’t there rumblings that he was unhappy in Boise this year? I know he was very outspoken that Boise needed to leave the Mountain West. May have made his situation untenable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I'm amazed Luke Fickell isn't more in the conversation for a top job, especially somewhere in the Midwest. (Honestly, I wouldn't be upset if Michigan kicked the tires on him if Harbaugh was to either leave or be asked to leave, though that doesn't currently look likely.)

Robert C Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Seriously weird coaching change related stuff going on about 20 minutes north of where I'm sitting. No idea what they're thinking here, but I sincerely hope it turns into the burnt orange clusterfuck that it looks like at first glance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewar Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I'm not sure why they waited until bowl season to fire Herman. They must have a massive hire to announce, otherwise they might end up looking dumber than Auburn did with their hiring process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) Edit: wrong thread. Theres a lot to dissect about this Sark hire. What I have a most vested interest in right now is who he takes with him from Alabama. If he’s smart, he throws all the money at Jeff Banks, who led Bama’s absolute *raid* of elite Texas talent in recruiting this year. If Sark gets him, that’s a big step toward getting Texas back on track. Obviously, I hope Bama can keep him. Edited January 2, 2021 by EVA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Probably shouldn't give Gase as OC much credit for Manning putting up the raw statistical greatest season ever, but he was also OC for Jay Cutler's best season by far. It's entirely possible he's one of those guys in the Wade Phillips mode where he's a good assistant but can't be the top guy. BoB is the best coach in Texans history. He honestly wasn't bad at the coaching part. Not great, but not bad. The problem was giving him the GM job, where he was quite possibly the worst in the NFL at that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
