TipTow posted:Well, as far as first fired during the season... I really don't think Malzahn is in as much hot water as people think. I don't know who would be available that they would want. Maybe the Houston guy if he leaves, but there are a lot of schools who would be after him. Auburn's AD has really tied himself to Malzahn and the recent contract extension makes me think firing Malzahn would cost him his job as well. That said I'm sure there is some scenario where he does poorly enough to lose him job, but I think it's a lot lower than people are assuming.

HOTLANTA MAN posted:I want this to happen except he beats Alabama In desperation I watched some youtube guy simulate the season in one of the NCAA games (with updated rosters maybe? at least the names were changed). Auburn went 7-5 with losses to Miss state, Ole Miss, Arky, and aTm, but beat bama in overtime. I would be okay with this.

KKKLIP ART posted:I feel like there was some grumbling that Gus was at least speaking to him, so there were rumors for a hot minute that he would go there as an OC. If Auburn's season continues to go well I think they will be looking for an OC at the end of the season. Lashlee has been looking for an opportunity as a head coach, but his one big liability was never being a play caller. He's been showing he can get it done these last few games, and I think he will get a chance at a smaller school. I really don't want to see any Briles get brought to Auburn, and would probably try to organize campus groups against it if it was being discussed (not that it would do anything).

pillsburysoldier posted:Some say he was offered 8 million I saw that posted on an Auburn board, but it has to be wrong. It would make him the highest paid coach in the SEC by a large margin.

Someone on an Auburn board said that Jimbo asked for 6.5 mil a year to leave FSU.

So the solution is to pay someone 6 or 7 million a year to lose to Saban instead?

People reporting Jimbo turned down a 6.8 mil a year offer from LSU.

I just don't see Kiffin taking another OC job. There has to be some smaller school willing to give him another shot as a head coach.

God willing Les goes on to win a naty at Purdue.

There has been a lot of speculation about Auburn's OC Rhet Lashlee leaving to take a HC job. Rumors are he is in the running for Georgia Southern and Florida Atlantic. He is also the main recruiter for most of Auburn's QB targets and apparently told former Baylor QB Stidham that GS has not contacted him. I think he deserves a shot at a smaller school and he probably needs to prove he can get it done without Malzahn. I really don't want him to leave this year though because Auburn will probably hire Kendal Briles to replace him.

Ole Miss dismissed one of their co-OC's and the recruiting guy who was implicated in the Tunsil texts. I also read some rumors that Sark is being looked at for LSU's next OC. I would think the Alabama OC job is his if Kiffin leaves though so I don't know why he would take LSU over that.

Ole Miss has apparently hired Auburn secondary coach Wesley McGriff as their defensive coordinator.

Sark is Alabama's new OC.

KICK BAMA KICK posted:CBS reports Rhett Lashlee leaving Auburn for OC job at UConn. I got no idea what to think of this. There was talk he would be considered for their HC job, the AD came from Auburn. I think he probably thinks he needs to show he can be fully in charge of an offense before he can get a head coaching job. I also read he's taking a huge pay cut going to UConn, so who knows. I'm really worried about who the new OC will be. In my fantasy they hire Chip Kelly, but it's probably going to be someone already at the program (Herb Hand) or a Briles (please no).

People on some Auburn sites are saying Mark Helfrich is in town. It's probably just rumors, but I would really like him as Auburn's OC.

It doesn't justify his actions at all, but 6 million dollars is a lot of motivation to put winning football games ahead of literally everything else.
