So how does this SEC coaching search play out?

  • Tennessee, Auburn, and Arkansas have to make hires. Who gets a good coach?

    Didn't Kentucky hire Stoops, or was that just a myth?

  • I'm thinking Arky makes the best hire. They've had longer to do it, and while Petrino is good, a solid coach is going to look at that job and think he can do better if he recruits a couple people on defense.

    Tennessee also could do it. It's a big job if handled right. I figure they get the 2nd best hire.

    Thought Kentucky already got Stoops from FSU? That's about as good as they could hope for IMO.

    Auburn is best situated for recruiting, being in Alabama, right next to Georgia, and close enough to Florida/Miss/La. The problem for them is all the chaos. How many top candidates are going to wonder about going to work for a lame duck AD with potential investigation looming and constant rumors of meddling from boosters and retired coaches? I think they end up settling for someone way down their list. Next round they'll clean the whole place out and have a chance to hire a better coach.

  • Kentucky has already hired Mark Stoops. Duh! My sources tell me Mark Richt called Auburn begging for us to hire him because he wanted to work at a school that has actually won a national championship in the last 30 years. However, we turned him down

  • Didn't realize KY had hired Stoops, my bad.

    It is so cute how you bammers know so much about Auburn, but you dont know anything about the crooks, cheaters and meddlers who run your own school's football program

    Most of my family went to AU. Instead of helping the Jimmie Hale Mission at Christmas, I just make sure they all get fed.

    They probably just don't care since their crooks and cheaters do it better than yours.

    Just responding to the bammers speculation of how nobody wants the Auburn job. However I not surprised a mutt such as yourself likely agreed with the speculation. because you are likely still mad that Auburn won a national championship a few years ago while your school cannot win one

    Buying a championship and winning one are 2 different things Pat.

    No big names will want the auburn gig.
    NCAA issues
    Competing against Bama in state.
    Arkansas and Tennessee > Auburn.

    At least we still have one. UGA does not and likely wont anytime soon

    Yet we have already won a national championship since Saban has been the coach at bammer. When was the last time Arkansas or Tennessee won one? You can spare me any allegations of cheating considering bammer is the school who has practically lived on probation in recent years

    The NCAA issues are just more wishful thinking from bammer morons like you. After all, Trooper and Luper were on the road recruiting for Auburn this past week. Of course, bammer is currently being investigated by the NCAA themsleves anyway. Just google Darius Page. I am sure you have never heard of such things, which is just more proof bammers know more about Auburn than they know about their own school

  • It's kind of depressing to watch a homeless man tell you what he used to be worth.
