Excited to get back to normal around here soon. Can finally start paying attention to recruit threads again and have conversations about the team and what to expect for spring ball/offseason. It’ll be a breath of fresh air after the last couple months.

Yep. I haven’t looked at a recrui thread since we lost to Georgia because I knew it wouldn’t matter until we got a coach. I’ve just hung out in here

AUBURNTIGERS.COM Chip Lindsey Bio :: Auburn University Official Athletic Site Auburn University Official Athletic Site :: Football

Chip Lindsey returned to Auburn in January, 2017, as offensive coordinator for Coach Gus Malzahn. Lindsey, who has 20 years of coaching experience, was on the Auburn staff as an offensive analyst during the Tigers' run to the SEC championship and BCS National Championship game in 2013.

Lindsey returned to Auburn from Arizona State, where he served as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2016. The Sun Devils started the season 5-1 before losing three quarterbacks to injury; running back Kalen Ballage tied an NCAA record scoring eight touchdowns in a 68-55 win over Texas Tech.

As offensive coordinator at Southern Miss from 2014-15, he developed the Conference USA 2015 Offensive Player of the Year in Southern Miss quarterback Nick Mullens, who ranked second in the league in passing yards (4,145) and touchdown passes (36), and ranked in the top eight in the nation in both marks in 2015.

The Southern Miss offense broke five single-season school records in 2015: completions (312), passing yards (4,263), total offensive yards (6,758), touchdowns (67) and points (528), as the Golden Eagles recorded nine wins, a Conference USA West Division title, and a berth in the Zaxby's Heart of Dallas Bowl against Washington.

Lindsey's Golden Eagle offense ranked among the best in the nation in 2015 in several offensive categories, including fifth in total touchdowns, seventh in total points, eighth in total passing yards and completions, and 12th in points per game and passing yards per game. The 2015 Golden Eagles tallied nearly 6,800 yards of total offense, including more than 4,200 passing yards and just under 2,500 rushing yards. The national leader with 102 explosive plays, they were just the second school in FBS history with a 4,000-yard passer, a 1,000-yard receiver and two 1,000-yard rushers.

Prior to his first stint at Auburn, from 2011-12, Lindsey served as head coach at Spain Park (Ala.) High School, leading the school to its first Class 6A regional championship.

Lindsey served as quarterbacks coach at Troy University in 2010, following a long and distinguished career as a prep coach (1997-2009) in football and baseball. At Troy, he coached the 2010 Sun Belt Freshman of the Year Corey Robinson.

Regarding Freeze, if that happens:

It’s worth noting that Saban has had a lot of recent success with this approach: hire an out-of-favor coach in some less-than-he’s-worth position so he can “rehab his image” (read: wait for the public to forget what he did wrong) while providing terrific bang for the buck. Lupoi, Sarkisian, Kiffin... all are examples of that strategy.

Neither condoning nor criticizing the idea. Just pointing out the similarity in approach.
