Re: Apparently Auburn hires gus

Makes perfect sense. They wanted to ying our yang with fast paced offense. Petrino was vetoed by Jacobs and Malzahn was not far behind anyway.

Coach Smart listened to what they had to say, but I doubt he was ever very serious. imo.


Here is a link to jox if anyone wants to listen in to the latest

Re: Apparently Auburn hires gus

Maybe a play to get a raise. Just like Les just did.
I believe he is our internal coach in waiting, but I have not had much support for the position. We will know if Coach Smart is cool to future vacancies.

IF (and this is a huge IF) the ole Gus bus has any sense, the FIRST thing he will do is escort trooper and luper to the front gate. But, I don't think he will.

Re: Apparently Auburn hires gus

For some reason I like Scab better since he's been on the radio. He's just hyper and highly opinionated and it comes out worse on paper. imo.
I share those feelings. He does a better job of expressing himself on air than he does in the paper.

Imagine being on the Auburn O. From the spread to the pro-style, and back to the spread. Will he keep Loeffler; and if so, will they clash?

No I think they are part of the deal, almost like a package deal. I have no inside sources or links, but I think many AU powers want him to stay.

Look at the most prominent coaches in waiting (Fisher and Muschamp). Jimbo never interviewed for another job, IIRC, once he received the new title. Muschamp only interviewed for the UF job. Kirby's interviewed for at least one job the last three off seasons.

I'll add one more thing. I believe he has a good future in the airwaves, he's sharp.
