It's Malzahn

According to James Bryant of AStateNation.com (who coincidentally broke the news that Malzahn was leaving Auburn for A-State).

JJ head on a pewter platter please. Somebody fucking tell this is a bad joke..please. I hope they got a steal deal. Hell, Gus's house hasn't even sold yet. WTF?

Fucking dumb.

We need a homerun hire, someone that's a strong willed ass, that can fix the fucked up situation currently, and compete with the asshole across the state.

INSTEAD, we hire someone that was part of the previously mentioned problem and history repeats itself. Fuck you Jay Jacobs, Fuck you Gogue, you just set back Auburn 30 years. Enjoy mediocrity. We will be having the same God Damn conversation 4 years from now with an even worse state of affairs.

I'm fucking done with Auburn Football.

So, where do you guys predict Dee Liner, Carl Lawson and Rueben Foster will wind up?

Anywhere but Auburn.

Listening to Finebaum because I'm an idiot.

He's trying hard to make it sound like Smart turned Auburn down and we had to settle for Malzahn. Also, the NCAA is going to hammer us. And Malzahn is doomed because he brought in all of the problem kids.

Fuck this state. BUT. This is one of many reasons why Malzahn shouldn't have been hired. Too easy to attack.

People within the Auburn athletic department, and those close to candidate Kirby Smart at Alabama, confirmed the university's decision. Smart was told Auburn had chosen Malzhan.

So we turned down Kirby Smart. For Gus.

Fuck.

Kirby Smart to Tennessee.

We spent 11 million dollars to start over, and we get Gus. He'll probably retain Trooper & Luper.

Hope you like shitty fucking quarterbacks and players getting arrested.

al.com is also reporting this, citing sources in the AU AD and also those close to Kirby Smart. Smart has been informed that it is Malzahn as well.

Auburn certainly could have done worse. Gus could have remained a rock star and dominated at Arky State. Not so sure he can do the same in the SEC, but I don't think he's destined for failure right out of the box either. If he was that terrible, he could have fucked Arky State up. True, he walked into a good situation where the coach left a good program for a bigger job, but he still could have fucked it up.

I was just about to post what Chizad did. We literally spent 11 fucking Million dollars to be in the same place we were two weeks ago. Fuck these God Damn idiots. Who wants to ride to Auburn and just beat the shit out of Jay Jacobs and Co.?

This hire is mind boggling. But then...we are AUBURN

"Knowing Michael Dyer's involvement in what was going on down there (Auburn), Gus Malzahn decided to take him with him to Arkansas State. What does that tell you about Gus Malzahn?" - Finebaum

Welcome to the next four years. Easy attacks from the Alabama-loved media. Undisciplined football players. Lack of defense.

Fuck me.

and this thread sums up where I am at.

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #18 on:** December 04, 2012, 03:54:52 PM »

I still think it's a better hire than Smart would have been. That's not saying much though...

AWK · « **Reply #19 on:** December 04, 2012, 03:55:19 PM »

You do realize, that he is going to retain Trooper Taylor and others. The fucking arrests and shit will continue. We will have no defense whatsoever, maybe have a few 7 - 5 seasons. Then go 1 - 11 and he will be fired again. This hire, essentially, is worse then when we hired Chizik. This is going to fuck us permanently. ALL BECAUSE OUR STUPID FUCKING FAN BASE AND FAILURE ADMINISTRATION CAN'T PULL THEIR SELF RIGHTEOUS HEADS OUT OF THEIR OWN ASSES.

I'm fucking done.
