Might literally be the WOAT hire. He performed heart surgery on Fisch? Very interested to see what this staff looks like since Jedd has some Michigan ties.

They weren’t at Michigan at the same time but it looks like they’ve had a lot of similar stops in the NFL/college just a couple years apart so there may be some familiarity.

catcheryea Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 2 hours ago, Oregon Ducks said: Why? He has applied and interviewed for every job in the PAC-12 that’s come open and hasn’t been hired. He has a pretty good record at Boise but not as good as the coaches before him. His players don’t like him. Boise was okay with him going (and he’s from there). He’s not a recruiting master or genius coach, he’s just okay at both. I don’t see how this ends up well for Auburn. i don’t know whether it’ll work out or not but he’s not 5-19 or 9-36 like chizik or steele. he’s not a proven ****up like freeze or sark. he hasn’t instantly turned auburn to a joke like kiffin. he isn’t near the bottom of his conference in recruiting like bill clark. at least on paper it’s not as good of a hire as cristobal or napier would’ve been but considering the other options being rumored last night there isn’t much to complain about. he obviously has some questions to answer about recruiting the southeast and coaching against more talented teams on a semi consistent basis. but i would rather go into next year with those unknowns than cycling through the other names just because they’ve coached in the sec or “have ties” to the area. i’d probably give it a b or b- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think so, and obviously Mahlzan’s record wasn’t good enough for y’all. letting go or Mahlzan without a replacement set (unless it was Steele lol) seems really dumb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronjon1990 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Knocking Harsin is fine. Knocking Harsin as being less successful than Dan Hawkins and Chris Petersen without accounting for WAC vs MW success is probably not particularly sound. That requires a ton of context to be thrown out for the sake of raw W/L. Good hire by Auburn. Every hire is a gamble, but as @catcheryea he's a B or B- safe hire. He doesn't have glaring deficiencies, which is already an upgrade on many of the candidates that were linked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think so, and obviously Mahlzan’s record wasn’t good enough for y’all. personally i’m not asking harsin and i never asked gus to turn auburn into bama or clemson and be in the playoff every year. but people seem to not understand that gus was at auburn for 8 years and in his last 7 years he lost 6 games, 5 games (thrice), and 4 games (thrice). i don’t think it’s unreasonable or unrealistic to want to go 10-2 or 9-3 the majority of the time with the occasional sec championship and playoff berth. also i think the way gus lost games was really what did him in. he lost to a horrible south carolina team, which was definitely a yearly occurrence. and in the 3 games against uga, bama, and a&m the offense spent 9 quarters ****ting in their helmets. just beat the teams worse than you and keep the rivalries close enough. gus was also 0-12 in away games at uga, bama, and lsu with most of those being blowouts or blowing a big lead. i hope we can agree that’s pretty unacceptable. all that said if he beat minnesota last year and south carolina he might still have his job 37 minutes ago, Oregon Ducks said: letting go or Mahlzan without a replacement set (unless it was Steele lol) seems really dumb. yes absolutely it was dumb as hell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone want to work for a guy who’s never been a HC, stayed at one job for more than two years or just took over a terrible situation where whatever talent left is transferring?

Given that they're the ones reporting on it, probably have to take their exact characterization with a hefty grain of salt, even if I can believe something did happen on their call. https://247sports.com/college/ohio-state/board/120/Contents/vip-intel-what-really-happened-on-the-b1g-call-w-dayharbaugh-149878118/ Edited December 23, 2020 by JammerHammer21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JammerHammer21 Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 Think this would be a solid hire if they can pull it off. Things weren't working at Michigan anymore, but I think he can still put together a good defense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
