“Auburn’s OC Chip Lindsey is set to receive a $100k retention bonus today if he’s still on the Auburn staff. Many people believe he’s Pruitt’s top choice for the Tennessee OC job.” - Jason Swain.

There ya go.

Been known for a while. Swain regurgitates stuff all the time. Swain and Ainge tend to find themselves looking outside in as far as insider information.

Damnit!

Great Hire if true...

If Freeze is free to coach, why not take a head coaching job somewhere?

 

[1725gatorhater]

Doesn’t mean that we get Chip but everything is pointing that way. Swain is using logic. I rather have Enos or Freeze but would be ok with Chip as long as it is not Friend or someone else on staff.

Swain doesnt say things he is not certain of. He prefers being right over first.

 

[VOLumeS]

Dont understand the appeal of Lindsey his scheme vs Tennessee was very average.

No one is going to give Freeze a HC job unless of lower teir FBS or a FCS making less than a million a year. Why do that when you can make probably 1.5 with less responsibilities and more to gain.

You do realize this information wasn't reported by Swain first, right? That's kind of my point, he's simply repeating something he's read elsewhere.

Swain has no idea what's going on with the hire, like the rest of us.

This is fake news. That retention bonus was yesterday.This tells me Malzahn has no plans to fire Lindsey.

Should Lindsey be employed at Auburn beyond Saturday, the second-year coordinator would be set to receive a $100,000 retention bonus.

You don’t really follow football do you? Gus runs the O down there just like Jeremy runs our D.

It’s a tradition here, kind of like when Dooley beat jones and then we turn around and hire one of the only coaches to be incompetent enough to lose to Dooley!! Now let’s go hire an OC that was one of the few teams to make our defense look serviceable all year..brilliant!!!!

 

[AndyMizunogolfer]

My gut feeling has been Lindsey, Enos, or Drinkwitz. I think if it were Freeze or promoting Friend that it would have already been announced.

 

[GetYouSomeofThat]

This would be perfect.

The OC that couldnt move the ball on us as well as Mizzoo or Vandy..sounds like fantastic fit here in Knoxville.

Seriously, your pointing to 'one off' games and characterizing an entire career for a coach? We beat them so their offense must be crap?

That can't be right. Ainge works for state run radio.

Looks normal to me. Says he is set to receive the bonus today. Had to be employeed thru yesterday, gets the bonus today. May not actually get in his hands until tomorrow?

 

[dtnvol]

Damnit!

LOL

 

[GrizzlyVol]

I think any between Lindsey, Freeze or Enos would be great hires. My pick (not that it matters) would be Lindsey he has a proven track record everywhere, at Auburn Gus has him handcuffed to run his stuff and it's not working. It's not his offense being ran at Auburn it's Gus's offense and without a mobile QB it's not all that great which is probably why Lindsey wants out. Either way I'm pretty comfortable with whoever Pruitt chooses out of the names that have been talked about

 

[volfaninpa]

Lindsey doesn't get to run his system at Auburn! He is subject to all of Gus' stuff.

Whether or not you want Lindsey is fine, but his Southern Miss offense is more reflective of his system than Auburn.

That was Gus Mal’s Offensive scheme and everyone knows it.

Bless your heart.

 

[titansvolsfaninga]

I dont know enough about Lindsey.....I would prefer Freeze or Enos. If Lindsey needs a mobile QB, we ain't got none on the roster, or committed.

Eh, I know it’s not that simple but it still is kind of funny... I also remember people saying those same kinds of things when people brought up the Dooley beating butch thing... people called anyone who made that comparison idiots.. guess who the real idiots where?
