Yes I do know the fight club rules. I really didn't intend for you to respond to my post as I was trying to be very sarcastic in playing along with Texas4040's post and your response above. Nonetheless, thanks and we're all hopeful for a positive outcome - whatever it is.
Clob is right. The fact that Urban hasn’t said no is the best we can get right this minute.
Alpha males never lose that desire for a new challenge. I can guarantee you Urban watching from the sidelines for a few years has him itching to get back in. Football is in his DNA.
Reportedly he listened to Florida state last year. There is also been rumors that Auburn is going to try to throw a large sum of money at him. When your betting on weather a coach comes back or not. Always bet yes. You’ll be right more often than your wrong.
Auburn is the Oklahoma State of the SEC. Every year we hear this is Auburn’s year, they’re gonna break thru, Mahlzahn is an offensive genius and every year ends in grea disappointment for Auburn fan. I can’t believe Mahlzan has lasted this long.
Well you gotta say one thing about Auburn. They are the only team in the SEC that has held their own against AL.
I’m not sure that’s a fair comparison. They’ve won a national title and played for another one in the last 15 years. Ok state can’t say that. Auburn would be the best team in all the other power 5 conferences for the last decade minus maybe the ACC. Just so happen the team of the decade resides in the same state and conference that they do
I should have clarified, Under Mahlzan they’ve underachieved consistently. I agree they play in a conference with Alabama but that’s not their only loss every year. If I was Auburn fan I’d want Malzahn gone too
Auburn being the best team of the decade minus Bama and maybe Clemson is waaaaaay too far of a reach.
They had one great Gene Chizik season with the bought and paid for Cam Newton. They had another good but not great team in 2013 that had TWO of the luckiest plays in college football history to get them to the championship game loss.
other eight seasons were:
- 9 losses
- 6 losses
- 5 losses
- 5 losses
- 5 losses
- 5 losses
- 4 losses
- 4 losses
You don’t think Auburn would be the best team in the big 12 most of the last 10 years?
First or 2nd team in the big 10
Easily the best team in the pac 12
auburn is flighty. sometimes they're great; sometimes they're 5-7. they're not a stronger year-in, year-out program than oklahoma or probably oklahoma state. in the pac, washington and oregon have been more consistently good. in the big10, they're not CLOSE to ohio state, and until this year michigan, penn st and wisconsin have been better. iowa has been plenty good, too. quit drinkin the espsec kool-aid.
No I don't. Not a chance in hell they have been more talented and better coached than Oklahoma or Ohio State. And to even question if they would be better than Clemson is silly.
Now, you have something in the Pac 12.
Weather or not they are better coached than OU is debateable, but history has shown that when OU runs in to a team from the SEC or Big 10 they don’t fair all that well. Some of those Auburn teams probably would of handled OU and fairly easily
OU beat tOSU not too long ago.~~~~~~ Riley is >>>> Herman.

OU played Auburn in a bowl with Mahlzan as the coach and beat them. I thought their offense was pathetic in that game.https://www.espn.com/college-football/game?gameId=400876112
Good grief KC, do you just say stuff for the sake of saying stuff?
Stoops/Riley are flat out better coaches than Chizik/Malzahn. It isn’t close. That this is even a debate is a head scratcher.
Idk that Riley is that much better than Herman He’s certainly had a better start to his career, but he inherited a much better situation as well I think we are just now gonna start seeing what Riley is capable of with most of Stoops guys gone. Not sure the book is completely written on Riley yet.
So if UM turns down the job, who should UT go after?
Would Shannahan be interested in leaving the NFL? Rod Babers has said on the Horn that he's not interested in doing the recruiting thing. There's just not a lot of great coaches out there....would we go after the ISU coach?

I'm convinced that you just say shit, just to say shit...sometimes

Just want to make sure we're clear on this point.
We're stuck with Herman my friend. Hopefully we get lucky one day like Alabama did when Saban fell into their lap. Wouldn't count on it.
You can't be serious. Herman isn't close to being in the same class as Riley. Compare their wins, development of players, and Heisman trophy winners. That tells the story right there.
This might be one of the most ridiculous things I’ve read in a long time. Lincoln Riley is an offensive genius. What he did with Baker, Kylar, and Jalen was just ridiculous. Now it looks like Rattler is starting to settle in and I would bet he wins a Heisman before he is done at OU. Herman is nowhere near Lincoln Riley. Like it’s not even close.
Guys I’ve relayed all of your compliments to Riley and he’s truly humbled.
Speaking of Riley, he does this deal every week of the season where Teddy Lehman will set up a certain play scenarios of a game that he coached and then he’ll ask Riley to recall what that play was and the outcome. Riley’s been doing this a couple of years and hasn’t missed once, see attached link.Like the attached article says, it seems like his brain records each game

Okay people, stop feeding the Gooners, it's going to cause an infestation.
Riley is one of the best offensive minds in the game, but he doesn't know jack about defense. Might as well call him Pirate 2.0 His saving grace is that he coaches at blOwU and they can afford to bring in top defensive coaches to help him out.
Right now Riley looks great because he is being compared to Herman, That is like comparing George Paton to Gomer Pyle. Of course he looks like a genius. Put he up against a great coach and his deficiencies will become much more apparent.
