I know it was reported that Kiffin hired Briles as the OC for FAU but I'm telling you, Kendall Briles to Auburn. A certain member here at the X told you goons this would gonna happen. It will happen before the week is done.

I will give you a dollar if true.

Plus? He took a pay cut of nearly half. Wonder why.

My guess is "might want to be looking for a job before we hire your replacement."

Er'body knows Malzahn and Briles Sr has been pals of late and er'body knows Stidham came to AU. The reports say that Lashlee is a big contributor to Stidham signing with AU. I wonder....

Well, the biggest question, regardless of who he hires, is will Malzahn turn the reigns over to him and let him do his thing?

In addition, Lashlee was a Gus protÃ©gÃ©. The offense that CGM designed is what was going to be run (Sans the whirly-bird). If he hires Briles or Kelly or whoever, do we see a different offense or does he demand they learn his scheme and run it his way?

My take is that Malzahn realizes what he has to do to keep his job next year. I think they both realized what needed to happen also. Rhett needed to be released to be his own and Gus needed to quit being Rhetts football daddy.

WOTS: It's already a done deal. It's someone that Malzahn has very close ties with. He'll be announced very soon.
