There's a lot of discussion about Malzahn out there. Obviously not by Leath or Greene who think they've got our man of the future, but among everyone else who cares about Auburn football, that discussion continues.
Most of what I see written about Malzahn carries the disclaimer "He's a good coach" always with the "but" directly after.
I've reached the conclusion (several times, actually), however, that he is NOT a good coach. He has had some success, true, but from a pure coaching standpoint he simply isn't a good college football coach. I used to think he'd be good somewhere like Akron or Bowling Green or South Alabama, but I don't even believe that any more. All the things that derail him at Auburn are magnified, yes, but even at a small school those same personality flaws would deny him long-term success.
We've hashed and rehashed this and the horse is dead so I'm not going to bother listing all the reasons he isn't a good coach. I just vote no.

I think he would be ok at a smaller school whose expectations are not terribly high. Place like Akron or eastern Michigan or ark state where 8-4,7-5,6-6 is ok. In that regard I think he’d be ok there. You’re right in that I don’t think he would have long term double digit win seasons. Just like lightning in a bottle in 2013, he may have that occasional season. But in reality he’s a 6-9 win coach , with 7-8 being the probability.

NO

I'll also tell you one other thing that comes from the deepest part of my rage core, the place I try to keep buried, that internal pit where snarling dogs with red eyes and smoke pouring from their nostrils are chained....
If that motherfucker says one more time that "we're gonna get better, I promise you that.." or "we're gonna get this thing turned around..." or "I feel real good about our future..."
Fuck him.

I feel so much better now. Don't worry y'all Gus got this. Forget about this year....this year is over. Now next year....watch out.

I wish I had been a reporter when he said that I would have asked him if he was willing to bet 32 million on it

Yes. Springdale High School alumni sing his praises daily!

Coordinator where all he has to worry about is the Offense, yes. Anything else, no.

Let's see, the 5* QB that's digressed big time in less than 2 seasons, will most likely be gone. You have one sort of legit RB on the roster and no more on the way. The O-line is the worst in memory and you can't even name the back ups...and no studs on the way. The top receiver in Auburn history, as far as number of catches, is gone. Your defensive front 7 will lose Dontavious Russell, Deshaun Davis, Darrell Williams and Andrew Williams to graduation and most likely Derrick Brown and Marlon Davidson to early departure. Maybe even Coe because I think he's been out of H.S. for 3 years. (Could be wrong) And your DB's just aren't all that good.
And next year, you'll get this thing turned around?

No. Gus runs a clean program but from all indications so does John L. Smith at Kentucky State.
Malzahn is 6-12 overall versus main rivals UGA, UA and LSU and 0-9 on the road.
*About to be 6-13/0-10 which is long past being unacceptable.

Yes, UAB lost but Tyler Johnson by himself threw for more yards than Stidham, threw the same number of TDs as Stidham and rushed for more yards than Whitlow against Texas A&M.
Johnson is a nice kid, but an average QB I watched play at Spanish Fort.

For the talent discrepancy on the field I thought they played well. Especially in front of that crowd.
