Realistic Options

To hell with Gruden and Cowher. My drean goes like this.....

1,000,000 Auburn fans donate $15 annually for a HC. JJ in turn boards a plane to San Francisco, finds Jim Harbaugh, opens up the suitcases with the 15 mil in it and says, "Coach you can either be a big fish in a pond full of big fish, or you can bring your ass back to college football, get your family out of this town full of homos and be known as the greatest football coach of all time who dominated the greatest conference of all time when it was at its peek. My suitcase and I are willing to wait till after your Superbowl win this year. Oh and one last thing coach, Nick Saban told me to tell you that you were a fag who was lucky enough to coach in a shit conference and you don't have the balls to compete in the SEC. War Eagle."

From the sounds of what goes on at Auburn practices, some of the current players need a Jim Leavitt
type around.

#5 was safe from getting hit, until he cut his hair

I guess the question is, if AU is going to spend the money on buying Chizik out, and they want to spend some money on a new HC and staff, is it smart to go after another Gene Chizik type? Unless they get a slam dunk no brainer (whether perceived as so or otherwise already proven), I think AU fans will be pretty pissed. The AD has proven that they can't pick out that under the radar type guy, and they know they can't make the wrong choice again. That's part of the reason I think that you guys will go after a top shelf type guy. Assuming that Jacobs realizes a change needs to be made in the first place, of course.

The loss in revenue from the anemic attendance at ONE game this season buys Chizik out.

Agree. And after hearing his locker room speeches, I'd take him in a min

No offense ths, but that was one of the more flawed writings I've seen from you - From the not so funny race references to the reasoning beside every coach.

The mess we have is the staff and AD. The cupboard isn't lacking.

i know...he should have used "ivory".

You didn't just type Monroe instead of Lafayette, you said he'd beaten Ark. and almost beaten Auburn. He's played neither this year.

Yes, this team is a mess, but it's not like the mess of 1998. We are not without players. We have players lacking coaching. We have an offense with no identity. We have no sense of urgency, or intensity. I'm betting that the right coach, and right system could make one of the 4 QBs (including the recruit out of Montgomery) a serviceable QB. Loeffler clearly can't do it and/or run an offense.

What the fuck do you know about what's in Paul Rhoads head, or what job he'd take...Prowler? If he's stupid enough to turn down Auburn to stay at ISU, then I damn sure don't want him anyway.

Get the sand out of your vagina Francis.

Rich coming from the guy who lectures everyone on here simply based on the fact that he's a pee wee assistant football coach.

I recommend the Key Lime Pie ice cream Blue Bell has it now. It is very good.

Publix has a pumpkin pie ice cream that is to die for! It's a seasonal flavor, which makes it extra nice.

Tell me who that "top shelf" guy is right now.

This may not be the answer alot of folks want to hear, but if you open up the pocketbook and make it known that you're serious, you might be surprised. I'm not saying that you have to open it up to some dickhole. You don't have to sell your soul and take just anybody. Make sure he fits and all of that.

Even if you get a top shelf coach, there is no guarantee that he would be successful. But at this point you have to at least put a line out and see who bites.

What I hear (skreetz) about Patterson is that his wife is a Dallas socialite and the TCU alum-base pooled their resources and gave him royalties to a shale reserve. Who knows if that's true, but it would explain his reluctance to leave TCU.

Strong would be a great choice. Not a home-run, but a solid hire who has rebuilt Kragthorpe's mess at UL and is regarded is a good recruiter.

The SunBelt guys (GM included) don't really blow my skirt up, but this isn't exactly a seller's market for coaches.

Chip Kelley can eat a dick. Do not want. Bad coach and worse human.

Holgerson and/or the Leach-tree flavor of the week can all pound sand.

Patterson is on wife #3.

One ESPN article from 2009 says he would be open to leave for the right job - the article mentioned TX, OK, NEB - but yes, it also says he has community roots. His son goes to TCU also, or was enrolled last year at least.

There are no realistic options. From the AD on down they would rather sink the football program then to admit they were wrong. We will most likely go into next year with this same staff and most likely have the same record again and then and only then will some changes be made, and of course this will be after losing the top recruits they we may have had.

That is Satan stealing the recruits... Get your facts straight. We don't lose them, they are stolen by the Dark Lord.
