He's been honking the Malzhan bobo for a week now.

Here's my problem with this though. He cites Petrino "stabbing Tubs in the back" as a reason to not hire Petrino. But it's basically the same thing Malzhan would be doing. The only exception is that he didn't speak to Auburn (that we know about) prior to Chizik being fired.

He's a real weird one. I used to like his posts but he is bordering on lunacy now.

I listened to the debate between him and Blake this morning and he sounds even moronic than he types. He was totally owned by that guy on Petrino.

There is no proof that Malzahn can be a head coach in the SEC. Not only that, would Malzahn even take the job?

So I go back to my original statement. Give us someone better. Don't just throw a name out there, make that name a real candidate.

Jay Tate said this morning on Fuzion 100.1 that Pat Dye is the one pushing for Kirby Smart.

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #25 on:** November 30, 2012, 10:25:38 AM »

Why would Pat Dye even be remotely involved in the search or "pushing" for anyone? Or is that just more "Dye really runs the program" BS?

It's more of a "he thinks he has some power". His ass will have no bearing on this process. Jay Tate has been pretty spot on in this search so far.

As if I needed another reason for a Smart hire to be the only one on "the list" that will piss me off.

I can tell you why just based on putting two and two together.

He pushed for Gene Chizik. Why? Because Chizik was young, energetic, inexperienced, and needing guidance. Pat Dye could play mentor, which is why he got an office in the AD, and which is why he got to be around the program so much, and which is probably one of many reasons why Chizik wasn't able to be successful over the long term.

So he's pushing for Kirby Smart. A young, energetic, inexperienced, and needed guidance coach that Pat Dye can mentor.

Why the hell else would Pat Dye push for him?

You know, I never thought about that angle. You could be on to something there.

I say it's stoopid, yeah that's right, stoopid--to even be considering Bobby P, (or any other high priced coach) at this juncture. Look, the world ends on Dec. 21 and then we go off the fiscal cliff on Jan. 1.

The timing just doesn't make sense. Let's at least wait until these two events unfold and then see what the market is like. I surmise that it will soften quite a bit.

If the first one happens, do we really care about the second one?
