Steele and Manny

[ARodri7982]

The real question is whether the program would be in better hands this year and moving forward with Manny or Mario.
Considering that Lashlee was leaving, I predict that Manny would have been a much, much bigger disaster this year than Mario has been (small disaster), and the recruiting would never have matched what Mario will bring in, even if Manny had been given the same facilities upgrade, new AD and NIL budget.

totally agree and was having this same conversation the other day with a buddy of mine. Lashlee was gone already and no way Manny would have hired somebody comparable. So basically we would have same result right now, without the top recruits coming in. I don't want to even think about where the program would be then.

Your opinion or you got some juice. I know the boosters wanted him. Or some did atleast. I think that would be a meh hire for them at best.

They did but I think that ship has sailed.

 

[PIPO]

Steele will be Auburns next HC.

Saw this a team rankings in two stats we always measured Manny by because of his ‘havoc’ focus:

TFL
MIAMI #14
PENN STATE #58

SACKS
MIAMI #5
PENN STATE #69

If we played the teams penn state has played what do you think we would be ranked?we are playing garbage teams

The real question is would Penn St lose to MTSU?

…yes.

 

[AK_Cane]

God please no. Would miss him but more worried about who he would take with him coaching wise

Here are all the names mentioned by the Opelika-Auburn News:


Doug Elk, Houston defensive coordinator
Jamey Chadwell, Coastal Carolina coach
Liam Coen, Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator
Josh Gattis, Miami offensive coordinator
Alex Golesh, Tennessee offensive coordinator
Jeff Grimes, Baylor offensive coordinator
Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State coach
Charles Kelly, Alabama defensive assistant
Lane Kiffin, Ole Miss coach
Rhett Lashlee, SMU coach
Mike Leach, Mississippi State coach
Jeff Lebby, Oklahoma offensive coordinator
Lance Leipold, Kansas coach
Dell McGee, Georgia running backs coach
Todd Monken, Georgia offensive coordinator
Will Muschamp, Georgia co-defensive coordinator
Bill O’Brien, Alabama offensive coordinator
Matt Rhule, former Carolina Panthers coach
Travaris Robinson, Alabama cornerbacks coach
Deion Sanders, Jackson State coach
Mark Stoops, Kentucky coach
Travis Williams, UCF defensive coordinator

I hope they Hire Chadwell so he doesn't go to GT. He can recruit all the leftovers in GA and score points with their scheme.

Best way to see this, is that Manny, in the rear view mirror, is a known quantity. Mario is still the cake in the oven. All we know is the ingredients that went into the cake. The aroma is so good, we keep checking it with a toothpick to see if it’s done. Nothing but disappointment with that approach, and making us turn on each other.

The cake has to bake before the frosting goes on....Mario is baking then we can cut a slice...

Sadly, of that list, I see several that would be chosen before Gattis.

Several???

 

[TRick72]

I would love for Leach to get the Auburn job. Not for his offense but for the press conferences for when the shït with the boosters invariably hits the fan

 

[TallyCaneFan]

Several???

Yep, just based on how teams have performed this year along, experience and making a "splash" hire, I'd think all of the names below would be ahead of Gattis. I think he may have lost his shine with our on-field performances.

Jamey Chadwell, Coastal Carolina coach
Liam Coen, Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator
Alex Golesh, Tennessee offensive coordinator
Jeff Grimes, Baylor offensive coordinator
Lane Kiffin, Ole Miss coach
Jeff Lebby, Oklahoma offensive coordinator
Lance Leipold, Kansas coach
Todd Monken, Georgia offensive coordinator
Will Muschamp, Georgia co-defensive coordinator
Bill O’Brien, Alabama offensive coordinator
Matt Rhule, former Carolina Panthers coach

Bethune might be only W.

Please please edit your post to say: "There's no way Auburn could pass up THE reigning Broyles Award Winner. The choice is clear!"

Also, some Auburn Boosters did want Steele instead of Harsin. Steele may not have been mentioned by that newspaper in Auburn but other media outlets have mentioned Steele's name.

Bill O’Brien, Alabama offensive coordinator
Matt Rhule, former Carolina Panthers coach

I think ALL of the names on the original list would be ahead of Gattis.

 

[blushrts]

I called that literally a few plays before it happened. I said to my buddy, “there will be a 3rd and 10+ conversion at some point this drive that will seal the game” and literally happened minutes later.

Like clockwork manny.

I know at one point the Suckeyes had a 3rd and 10 and Manny was obviously bringing a lot of pressure.

ALL the defensive backs were giving 10 yard cushions, and they just threw a slant and the guy split 2 defenders for the first down.

Looked familiar.

Chadwell is not getting any big time P5 jobs

Biggest hick on that list and TrumpyCane is friends with some big time grizzly bears in Auburn area that have used that reason as why Auburn will not hire him

 

[NJshoreCane]

If we played the teams penn state has played what do you think we would be ranked?we are playing garbage teams

Opponents average offensive ranking of teams played - P5 only (vs other P5 teams):

Penn State- 43
(Top 40- OSU, Purdue and Michigan)

'Canes- 58
(Top 40- UNC and Duke)

Maybe best to check back next week after PSU plays Indiana-

Penn State- 50
(Top 40- OSU, Purdue and Michigan)

'Canes- 51
(Top 40- FSU, UNC and Duke)
