Tim Banks is gone

It is in a lot of ways a relief as now you have a feeling if we get the right guy we can move forward quickly.
 
I've called for this for a long time. I worried he wasn't the guy during the search when it was revealed that he was a "co" DC at PSU but not the primary playcaller.

Still I can't help but feel bad for the guy. If he had an opportunity to be a small school HC, he should have taken it.
 
Word is that Coach Garner wants to go back to Alabama for family reasons. He probably has older parents and wants to be there. Great coach and my favorite on the staff but can't blame him if that's the case.
That's been floating around but I saw elsewhere that hires have been made already at Auburn that close the DL coach position.
 
7th ranked Defense last year ! Fans got him run off ! Be careful what you wish for
He had overwhelming talent and depth last year. That's not the norm for anyone in this era of football.

However, his total D rankings vs the SEC since arriving were 13 of 14, 11 of 14, 7 of 14, 2 of 16, and 14 of 16.

It is far more accurate to say that one year was an anomaly due to great talent than to say he's done anything that warrants keeping the job.
 
Marion Hobby, Jerod Mayo, Dale Jones, Al Wilson. Any of them qualified ? Smoky posts the Hobby qualifications - what about the others?
Dale retired.Did Al ever finish his degree? It’s irrelevant anyway just Like Mayo a name with no college coaching experience but linked because he played here. Que the Peyton Manning crowd.

Find somebody who can show a defense, bait the offense and be there waiting because we know where the ball is going. Haven’t seen us do that in a long time. I don’t care who it is.
Bout time we started playing some chess. That’s what Cignetti does. His defense dictates what the offense does or can do. Step ahead. I was weary of being steps behind. Every offensive play vs Vandy was a surprise to us at almost 10 ypp.
 
Georgia shut down Alabama with 4-5 * in every position 2 deep in most cases.

Indiana with Bryant Haines as DC shut down Ohio State at thier house with 3 *, or no stars.

BH would get my vote. Pay what it takes.
