Quote
(Bobby) Bentley is a former national high school coach of the year, who has spent the last four years working as the offensive coordinator at Byrnes High School in Duncan, S.C., which is widely considered one of the nation's most elite high school programs. Bentley won four straight state championships as Byrnes' head coach before leaving to coach at Presbyterian College in 2007, but has since returned to Byrnes as offensive coordinator and the school district's athletic director.

SportsTalk, a local sports radio show in South Carolina, confirmed late last week that Bentley was offered a job by Malzahn and Auburn. Bentley later, however, released a statement via his Twitter account saying that he had turned down the offer.

"I am committed to District 5 and Byrnes," Bentley tweeted. "I have not taken a job at any other school and will be coaching at Byrnes."

Guys, we don't need to try to hit a homerun every hire.  Bently won't be hired by anyone this football season.  We need to look at the Junior High level.

So, you're saying Frank Bongivengo, Jr. is just a pipe dream and I should give up hope?

I don't understand everyone freaking out about this? About him not taking it or if he had that he was just coming from high school?

The last time I checked nobody here had coached their first college game as of yet.  It is pretty well agreed that Gus needed to clean house and bring in his own folks no matter who they might be.  If everyone really agrees that you give the man the keys to the program and let him drive then you stay the fuck out of his way and let him do it his way.  Anything less is nothing more than the micromanaging that everyone swears that they cannot stand in the first place.

Look, it's a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there's a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as The Pentavirate, who run everything at Auburn, including the newspapers, they meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.

You know, we have ways of dealing with people who like to talk about things that they shouldn't be talking about. Don't be surprised if you start getting parking tickets at your own house. And shit.

Bentley's son was at play here as well...something like 47 TD passes aginst 5 picks. Unclear as to what staff position dad would have occupied but he could have strolled into any high school in SC where everyone knows him.

Craig I'm assuming really didn't want to be known simply as a recruiter and perhaps values his position coaching skills more than the bump in salary and move was worth to him. He got his raise to stay on in Tallahassee.
