If you spent 21 mil to fire Gus and promote from within

Clean house and start fresh or they should have kept Gus and suffered through another year.

I guess SC put them on the clock after firing Muschamp even when they beat us.

If the PTB are pushing Steele (in any manner) it's a travesty and more money in my pocket.

Now if the next coach wants him that's another matter completely; however at this juncture it's time for a good sweeping out. Because it wasn't just the offense that's been in decline. Has he saved the day, most certainly, but it's currently what can you do for me today time.

Guys. Calm down. Cristobal has a game in 4 days. The man isn’t going to say he’s leaving when he has a game and wants to finish. Let the days pass and he will come to us.

That’s all they are. Clickbait for the subs too.

There is ZERO chance we hire Steele.

- The search committee is a farce and just to appease Gogue
- Money boys want Steele. Have wanted him for two years
- They think Steele can fix our "culture problem". Whatever the hell that means.
- Allen Greene has zero say in this. He wanted to retain Gus.
- Others might get interviews but according to this Q&A they're just for show



- 90% of this is false.
- Everyone is repeating things they hear from people who pretend to be insiders.
- You will not be disappointed with this hire. The AD and the board are all in agreement except for 1 person who is a control freak and will not get his way this time. (Too many people are on the same page)
- Steele is not going to be our head coach.

That late night chat with Ron is depressing as hell

I actually think there is a lot of truth to what he has said. They would not just make all of this up.

An OC name floated out there to coach with Steele is Mike Bobo. Likely contract for Steele would be 5 years.

Overall, just burn it down. It's hard to continue to support this shite. I hope folks make auburn feel it next year if we hire Steele because if that happens, then the BoT doesn't give two shits about anything

There's just no way we buyout $21.5M and make Steele interim just to name him later?
Not even Auburn can screw the pooch that hard!!

If this is correct, I am going to get one of our other posters to give you a kiss.

No I know this is all a smokescreen or that Saban is in charge of hiring our next staff

Mike Bobo, this crap just gets more depressing. Why not at least try to get a big name like Stoops or Myer?

Repeat after me:

Auburn football has no insiders and the shite I’m reading online is false.


There’s no way they are hiring Steele. You don’t replace a 55 yr old HC with one that’s approaching 70. All these writers are taking the Finebaum approach of shite stirring for clicks.

Steele, Rane and other BoT members have been trying to make this happen for 2 years.. the implication being Steele went behind Gus back

Easy bro. Take a deep breath in, let it out. Dont burn all your blue and orange shite just yet. Cool down.... Kevin Steele is not going to be our next full time coach. Its not going to be Freeze or Lane either. Just step back a few days and let things work out.

AU86's guy is the #1 target. IF they miss on him, it wont be Kevin. There are a few good choices out there and Auburn is the most attractive job on the market.

Now if everyone else wants to melt, let them. We need the entertainment.

The fact Steele’s name is all over the rumor mill and NO mention of a Stoops caliber hire speaks VOLUMES about the state of our football program.
