202x Coaching Carousel

[PurpleOil]

Auburn actually fired Guz. 

He'll always have 2013

Having him as OC would certainly help Offensive recruiting. We may even be able to get a decent QB then!

I can dream, right?

[MakeItRain]

We should definitely get a top 20 NFL receiver type guy, that would help out a lot.

Right?

Didn't see it posted here yet, but Briles has officially resigned from his high school coaching position at Mount Vernon, TX.


Rumor mill says he's headed to Liberty.

What job did Freeze take.

[PurpleOil]

Rumor Mill =/= Official

That's why I separated and clarified those two statements from each other.

I wasn't questioning you, I think where Freeze goes, if he goes anywhere, is the most intriguing part of the carousel this year.

[PurpleOil]

Gotcha. I misunderstood your post then.

I have to think he's on the short list for Auburn. We know that school has no issues with cheating, and Freeze is one of the very few people to demonstrate the ability to beat Saban. Seems like a fit.

Our buddy Blake Anderson is leaving Arkansas State for Utah State. I think Arkansas State is a better job, but it can't be easy remaining in Jonesboro after that man lost his wife.

Arkansas State has hired Butch Jones as their new head coach.

I don't think that's a bad move for the program.

Notre Dame defensive coordinator Clark Lea will be the next coach at Vanderbilt.

I've heard Freeze's name mentioned for the Auburn job.

Auburn is fascinating. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tuberville retire from his elected seat to coach them.

I would be shocked, but kinda not really if Freeze ends up there. The using his work phone for hookers is one thing, but I would be very weary of a coach whose only success in the SEC was tied to a program where he was cheating his ass off. Can this dude recruit and coach without paying off the entire roster?

[ben ji]

I doubt Auburn would have any issue with Hugh Freeze paying off the entire roster as long as he is winning.

The only schools in the SEC that actually make an effort to not cheat are Georgia, Florida and Vanderbilt. The rest couldn't care less - unless they're caught. And, even then...

[wetwillie]

Yea that’s not true

[Kid In the Hall]

Yea that’s not true

Yeah, it is. Take a look at the schools and who's been on probation over the last 20 years (and don't just look in the major sports - some of these schools - like Auburn - cheat in things like swimming and diving). The three schools I mentioned are the only ones that truly/consistently take it seriously across the board.

I’m definitely not going to look for NCAA violations going back 20 years for non revenue sports you weirdo

Totally understand. Though, probably best then to not chime in when you don't know what you're talking about.

Somehow Georgia landed the #1 recruiting class in 2020 and did it 100% above board because well just take your word for it.

Never said they weren't cheating - just that they take compliance more seriously the most of the rest of their league. That's backed up by their lack of citations from the NCAA - aside from Todd Gurley selling autographs, Georgia's football program hasn't been dinged for major infractions in a long time.

Regardless, obviously, it'd be really bizarre for a blue blood program that's about to finish in the top 10 for the fourth-straight year to haul in a great recruiting class.

Believe whatever you want - you're obviously well informed on the subject matter.

[pissclams]

i think everybody in the $EC cheats their tails off!

do i have proof?  no.  but it's true.

[Kid In the Hall]

Fun fact! - Vanderbilt is the only SEC school who's football program has never been put on probation.

Fun fact! #2 - Auburn has been banned from participating in bowl games nine times - three more than any other school in the country.

Fun fact! #3 - Kansas State has been banned from bowls five times (1970, 1971, 1972, 1978, 1979). Only four schools have been banned more times (Auburn, SMU, Mississippi, Houston).
