The Blue Board

Best of Luck. He's gone sometime or another. But I doubt its for this gig..

Would be epic if he goes there, does well, then we hire him when Saban retires.

That would be perfect in every way.

**doubtful** Auburn has the bargaining power to add that to a contract for a high profile candidate. Might be ok for the Chiziks of the world but not Kirby.

I guess Petrino isn't going to happen?

*contracts* are not worth the paper they are written on.
*money* over rides any contract.

This guy called it

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Is that supposed to be a shot at the validity of AU's 2010 national title?

Be careful, or I'll whip a few up out of thin air, bama-style, to make up for it.

Well, I guess it is a good thing Kirby Smart is not a high profile candidate. He will basically take the contract Auburn gives him or we will move on to someone else.

If he doesnt accept the job, who cares? He is far from the first choice of most Auburn fans anyway

good to see you back...where's the pastor? missed him since august.

Dye was an assistant at Alabama for 1965-73 and then a HC at ECU & Wyoming for the next 7 years. Too young to remember the search, but I don't think Dye was exactly a hot commodity when he took the Auburn job.

However, Dye knew the lay of the land in the SEC and knew Alabama was vulnerable, because Coach Bryant was in poor health and on his way out. I don't think Dye takes the job or is successful if Coach Bryant is in his prime.

If Coach Smart takes the job I think he'll be successful, but probably not on the level Auburn fans would expect.

After this year we'll have 10 no one can dispute because everyone claims them. AP,UPI and BCS. There's really no reason to count anymore.
