Fo sho ... "Little Brother syndrome" and all that comes with it.
But even with Saban's shadow, Auburn is still a **** good job for the right coach (i.e., not an Idaho weirdo who doesn't understand The South).
Again, if the RB doesn't go out of bounds with about a minute left, the Tigers beat Alabama last season and we're probably not even having this conversation.
Sen. Tuberville finished in the Top 10 twice at Auburn. Gene Chizik won a National Championship there and Gus Malzahn **** near did — both since Saban's been in Tuscaloosa.
Don't think anyone would confuse Tubs, Chizik or the Gus Bus with an actual elite-level CFB head coach.
A legit coach has got a real chance to win big there ... same as with UM, fsu, uf and the other good jobs in this part of the country.
