And I bet you were in love with the Dooley, Butch, and Pruitt hires too.... keep blaming the fans I suppose... but I hope you know the true embarrassment has been the dogsg%t the admin keeps serving up hire after hire after hire. Let’s just keep it real

Way to connect completely unrelated topics. What does any of that have to do with your third-grade insult riddled post full of complete farce about a potential coach? You have no argument so you spew some garbage that everyone agrees with (including me) to cover-up your nonsense. Pruitt has done very poorly. So did the last three hires. None of that helps mitigate the idiocy of your post.

Can some one sell me on Gus? I know he went to the natty in 2013, but every other year he has had at least 4 losses. Obviously better than CJP, but this doesn’t excite me at all as a fan.

1-5 vs Kirby Smart
Lived off Steele's great defenses
Fired by a comparable program

I'm sure things will be different here

People are also delusional if they think this fanbase will be happy with mediocre stability. We were losing our dang minds after b2b 9-win seasons. I don't buy it. And this idea that "he'll bridge to our real HC in 5 or 6 years" is even more delusional. There's no such thing. AU has enjoyed 7 years of fair stability and about to hire Kevin Steele lol. Mediocre stability doesn't attract top talent. Competitive advantages and leadership do.

So your using weight as one of the reasons that Kiffin would be a better HC now than 10 plus years ago. That’s a good one. You are one credible dude. Lol!

If you think a joke about his belt size is the only evidence he is a changed coach compared to his early years (2009 / Tennessee year), don't know what to tell you.

After Schiano got the boot, he was easily the best hire that could have been made if the links of him wanting Steele to team up with him to come to Tennessee was true.


I guess you won't mind getting lit up by him and Ole Miss next year because deep down, you know he's not a good coach?

Gus has a better Win% against teams that finish ranked than Freeze does. Freeze finished higher than 5th in the west twice in 5 seasons. Freeze finished ranked twice. Freeze is 2-3 vs Gus.

I’m really not sure how some of y’all act like Freeze is a God tier hire and instantly will be competing with bama but we shouldn’t even consider Gus and he’s a horrible hire. I could list more stats but those people probably won’t even finish reading it🤦‍♂️

One was at Auburn and one was at Ole Miss. Quite a difference. Freeze would of accomplished just as much as Auburn and imo more than Gus if roles were reversed. I think both are solid hires though, so I will agree with you on that people that think Gus is "horrible" are a bit crazy. I don't think many really think that and just think Freeze is a better hire, which he is.

Inb4 Freeze is hired and then half of y’all complain about him never being able to successfully run the ball

His worst year at Ole Miss he rushed for an average of 149 yards a game. His best year, they rushed for 190 a game. Both of those years they still average 400+ yards a game and 30+ points a game.

This year at Liberty his team is averaging 250 yards a game rushing and 40 points a game.

Freeze never successfully running the ball just isn’t true.
