Title: New OC Rumors and News
Post by: wesfau2 on January 12, 2017, 02:35:16 PM
EDIT: FUCK IT.  Bruce Feldman says this on Twitter:

Source close to #Auburn OC search tells @FoxSports: Still very early in process. No leaders in the clubhouse. New OC will act as play-caller


Gus is advertising the job as a true OC position, with play-calling, apparently.

Ummm, so we were surprised by Lashlee leaving for half the salary? 

And if he was leaving I wonder how smart it was to let him call recruits and tell them?

Lashlee had 2 more years on his contract.  It didn't require a buyout on his part if he took another job, but I imagine Auburn would owe him if he was canned.  Hey, one-sided contracts are the Auburn way.  If I had to guess, I would say AU decided it was time to move on from him and they fronted him a little do rae me under table.  Publically, Lashlee decided to take advantage of this "opportunity". 

What I'm hoping is that the PTB behind making this decision, put the ultimatum to Gus that he hire an OC/QB Corch and turn that side of the ball over to him.  Kind of an LSU to Les.  Change this shit or else.  Or else, happened. 

My gut tells me that will never happen, even if that's what they present on the surface.  I firmly believe Malzahn is way too paranoid to let go of anything.

The timing of it actually makes me think the opposite.  I think Lashlee got on offer and even though it was lower $$$ wanted to unhitch himself from the Gus Bus. 

Go be an OC somewhere where you can make a name for yourself, because at AU if he succeeds it's Gus and if he loses it's him.

Jane, you ignorant slut.

That's what Skrubdinski said in his piece.  Putting this out there actually surprised me.


Lashlee leaving is the first part of the Machiavellian scenario painted for me by Auburn sources in September. According to those sources, Lashlee taking over the play-calling for the LSU game and beyond wasn't all Malzahn's idea.  Instead it was a suggestion from a powerful booster that could go one of two ways. The offense could start rolling, and Malzahn would be seen as a smart head coach making a wise mid-season correction.

Or the offense could continue to struggle and Lashlee would be the scapegoat. Auburn could keep Malzahn to avoid paying his current buyout just south of $9 million, and he would bring in one of the best offensive minds in the business, who just happens to be a friend of Malzahn's but not a protege.


Coming off 2013, Lashlee was the up and coming boy wonder.  Too young for a major HC job at 29 or 30, but they were winning big, scoring points and he was well thought of.  Since then, the wheels have started wobbling.  I still feel like whoever is calling the shots has no confidence in Malzahn running the offense anymore and certainly doesn't want to turn it over to someone who may or may not have ever been making the decisions on offense.

We've apparently been turned down by lots of options, which makes me wonder why TF we decided to boot Lashlee when we did without a backup.

Also, Kiffen is mocking us on Twitter for, presumably, trying to poach either him, Briles, or both.

It's not the official party line, but you'll never convince me he left to UCONN for considerably less money on his own accord.

I don't get the missuguys plane picture.
It's not entirely clear, but it seems like he's sarcastically saying "Buh bye" to the Auburn plane that came to interview Kendal Briles (or maybe both him AND Kiffin, IDK).

I don't see this affecting our recruiting in the least.  We're going to get ours. We always have under Malzahn and we're still a top 10 class with 6-7 more to sign.  Plus, no matter who we get at OC, I'm still convinced that they'll be running Malzahn's O regardless.

Agreed.  I think a big name OC could only boost it.  Maybe be the deciding factor for 1 or 2.  I'm just of the opinion that the one thing CGM and his staff have always done and will always do great, is recruit that ass off. (About an 87% upgrade in QB evaluation would be appreciated)

The whole Briles thing is stupid for Kiffin to bring up because the Briles to AU thing was shutdown a week ago. I highly doubt Auburn was even remotely thinking about going after Kiffin. Da boy is stroking his ego.

As far back as I can remember, these type searches/hires were made way under the radar. When announced, we would all be like "where the hell did that come from". Could this be the same situation?

"Lane Kiffin posting a picture with no other explanation except a cryptic hashtag is a thing that happens a lot, and it happened again on Wednesday. The new FAU head coach tweeted a photo of an Auburn private plane with the hashtag #missuguys.

Is this a cherished photo, taken months or years ago, that Kiffin keeps on his phone and looks at when he wants to be reminded of Auburn? Or did he have a runway run-in with Tigers recruiters out on the trail on Wednesday? Well, it's hard to say."

I really don't understand why it's all that hard to figure out he's trolling Auburn. The implication is pretty clear to me that he's pointing out that we "swung and missed" trying to hire someone (probably just Briles) from USF. He's sarcastically saying he'll miss the Auburn coaching staff in South Florida now that they're leaving empty-handed.

I HIGHLY doubt that he is just sincerely musing about how he misses being in the SEC, especially that he misses the Auburn coaching staff. Especially given what a known trolling prick he is.

Totally agree, especially considering that we would have to pony up 1.2M to hire him.  I just assume promote Hand to OC, hire Jumbo, Prowler, or Snags to coach the OL, and save the money to potentially buy out a coach contract next year.

I'll do it for $500K.  I know it's a pay cut but damn, I love Auburn.

At this point, Hand may be the most logical choice.  He's done it before with Malzahn and something tells me that whoever he hires is going to be made to run Gus' offense anyway. Can you really see CGM hiring anyone and saying, "Here, do your thing.  I'll just do my CEO thing."

For right now, we most likely have a Coach that will be fired somewhere from Mid-season to end of season. We have an Athletic Director who no else in the country would even interview for any position in their Athletic Dept.

I'd hire Art Briles. While announcing him as the new OC I'd tell the media to Fuck Off and that he's never avaliable for comment.

Serious note...Art Briles was the fall guy for a Baptist school that continues to sweep things under the rug, just so they can look good on the surface. There are people who have known Briles for 30-40 years and they're all saying the same, fall guy for the school or he did it to remove attention towards his son (OC) or son-in-law (Offensive assistant).

Having said that....my speculation is the same as it's been from the start.  Malzahn was hired for his Offensive "Jeenyus".  He is NOT going to hire anyone and turn it over to them to run their own offense.  It may actually be presented that way but Gus Malzahn is ultimately not going to relinquish control of the offense.  Best to name Herb Hand and move forward with CGM's offense and hope Stidham or White or Barrett are the right guys to run this offense and that they can stay healthy.

If they are and Gus doesn't go full tard, we can be pretty damn good next year.  Play for the West.

I think this could be the work of Georgia and Kirby Smart trying to persuade Gatewood to flip.

The two supposed separate stories might actually be linked is all I'm saying.

We weren't going to make a splash hire anyway because nobody that moves the needle is available, at least not within a reasonable salary range. i.e. Lincoln Riley.

So I'm not so sure this isn't an outside force trying to cast a pall of disharmony when there isn't any beyond that from our miserable finish and what we can see which is Malzahn and staff busting ass to close out strong in recruiting.

True or not the rumor has its effect in message and narrative and it would help to have at least a denial of sorts to put it to rest.

Quick question.  How many of those sources were right during the last coaching search? Let's count. 





Still waiting.

 

You are equating Jeffrey Lee and Bryan Matthews to Al.com. So you're argument is already flawed. Those guys do know things we don't and are right more than not. Al.com does not.

This search was a clown show and we were forced to settle for someone who was about our PTB's 186th option and Gus' 4/5th option.

Gus has spoken.

"I'm excited to welcome Chip Lindsey to the Auburn family," Malzahn said in a statement. "I have the utmost confidence in his ability to lead our offense and his strength in developing quarterbacks makes him the perfect fit. Chip is a man of integrity and character who will fit well within our staff. He has great knowledge and enthusiasm for the game and is a rising star in this profession."

But doesn't that go against everything that people have been saying since Gus was hired?  Jay hired him.  Gus was Jay's boy.  His yes man.  Jay calls all the shots in the athletic department.  He's not going to allow his employee to go over his head and get his way.  Right???

My point was that all the rumors and speculation were just that.  Nobody knew anything.  The assertion that there was somehow, a power struggle between Gus and Jay or the PTB or boosters or whoever, was in my opinion, a crock of BS.  Unsubstantiated rumors from "sources"...."people close to the situation"..."someone with knowledge of the process." And the longer it went on, the more rumors appeared.

In case people haven't noticed, Gus Malzahn and this staff are in the stretch run of recruiting season.  He was on a plane to Jacksonville yesterday, meeting with a future QB prospect.  They've been blitzing the southeast, trying to nail down recruits.  Not sitting in a conference room, smoking cigars and sipping fine bourbon, waiting to interview the next potential OC.

After just listening to the presser on Rivals with Gus and Rhett Chip, I felt a little movement.  Might have been the jalapenos.  IF....IF....Gus were to keep his word in the presser and turn it all over to Lindsey, we might really have something.  But I'm still convinced that Malzahn is just too paranoid to do that.

We have talent.  Lots of freakin' talent on both sides of the ball.  More coming in with this class.  If Steele keeps it rolling on D and Gus lets someone else run their offense and coach up these QBs...

My positive side agrees and that's usually who I am. I really hope you are right. Like mentioned, it seems the QBS seem siked about the hire. That's good because that seems to be Chips specialty. Also, with his close ties to AL HS football, it helps AU with Alabama cruitn even more.

You are equating Jeffrey Lee and Bryan Matthews to Al.com. So you're argument is already flawed. Those guys do know things we don't and are right more than not. Al.com does not.

This search was a clown show and we were forced to settle for someone who was about our PTB's 186th option and Gus' 4/5th option.

According to J.G Taint over at Rivals, Chip was actually Gus's first choice and JJ wanted Gus to hire someone else and some big money boosters wanted a hire that was different from what Gus wanted and what JJ wanted.  If true, then fuck JJ in the ear with an ice pick.  You hired the man, get out of his way and let him hire and run the show how he sees fit.  If he succeeds then great, you look good, if he fails, then fire his ass.  Also fuck the boosters for having that much influence over the program. 

For some reason I can believe J.G's story.  By not letting Gus hire who he wanted from day one and fighting him for a week, the PTB and JJ made this a circus and embarrassed Auburn in the process.

Gus Malzahn may have been more involved with the offense had Rhett Lashlee stayed on board with the Tigers.

Brandon Marcello - 5 hours ago 14


AUBURN, Ala. — Gus Malzahn was ready to relinquish control last season, but maybe not completely.

The Auburn head coach recently hired Chip Lindsey to replace Rhett Lashlee as offensive coordinator. Lashlee left for the same position at UConn on his own accord, setting in motion a 10-day search for his replacement on the Plains.

Malzahn had relinquished play-calling duties to Lashlee four games into the 2016 season, an unexpected and unorthodox move for Malzahn, but one he said was needed. Still, Malzahn had plenty of input on game days, as seen in the final few games of the season. Interestingly, after Malzahn hired Lindsey, he said he was “retiring” his clipboard after 26 years.

“Yeah, I’m not going to carry that anymore,” he said. “I retired it officially so that kind of tells you where I’m at, how much confidence I have in this guy right here.”

Apparently that may not have been the case had Lashlee stayed around Auburn for a fifth season.

“I don’t know,” Malzahn admitted Wednesday. “I just decided the other day it’s about time.”

Auburn’s offense took a big hit as injuries mounted at quarterback and running back in the final month of the season. The Tigers went did not defeat a Power 5 team in its final three games — Georgia, Alabama and Oklahoma — and combined to score only 38 points against the foes after averaging 35.8 points per game during a six-game winning streak earlier in the season.

Malzahn said he wasn’t surprised by Lashlee’s departure.

“He applied for a couple of head jobs and all that, so I knew it was a possibility,” Malzahn said. “I’m really happy for him. He did a super job here at Auburn.”

Lashlee was a finalist for the Georgia State head coaching job in December. He took a $250,000 pay cut to take the job at UConn as offensive coordinator on Randy Edsall's staff Jan. 10. The decision snapped a lifelong connection on the sidelines between mentor and protege. Malzahn coached Lashlee at Shiloh Christian in Springdale, Arkansas in the late 1990s through the early 2000s, and they coached together on different levels, from Lashlee as a graduate assistant at Arkansas and Auburn, to offensive coordinator from 2012 through 2016 at Arkansas State and Auburn.

“He was wanting to do his own thing and I don’t blame him,” Malzahn said. “We’ve been together a long time. He’s going to do a super job. I expect him to do very well.”

Says the Guy who switched from CEO before this past season to calling the offense because "that was what he was good at". To after 4 games back to CEO?  Like Kaos has said he doesn't know what he is doing on the job.

Says the Guy who switched from CEO before this past season to calling the offense because "that was what he was good at". To after 4 games back to CEO?  Like Kaos has said he doesn't know what he is doing on the job.

Well, I would bet that any Auburn fan reading this article has thought, "I will believe it when I see it". I hope Chip to stick to his guns and Gus can let the man do his job.....and Gus do his. But again, I will believe it when I see it. His retiring his clip board is like Farve retiring from the NFL.

^^This right here^^.  IMO, if he steps away, we can be really good. (Well honestly, I assume that because I don't really know that much about Lindsey's offense other than he throws a lot more) But I have a sneaky suspicion that he won't be able to let go.

And that being said, if Gus cannot let go then it follows that HE must go. We run the ball at Auburn first and foremost. Its in our DNA.
It's okay to be pass heavy if that's what the talent demands...in a nutshell.

Close. 

"No surprise to Saban"

his news came as a surprise outside the football complex, but the timing suggests it wasn't something that caught Nick Saban off guard. That means a head start on naming a third offensive coordinator of 2017.

Does he mean the fact that it was announced after the Super Bowl and after Atlanta's OC resigned?

You're dead to me.

The man is also the special teams coach.  How is this going to affect the psyche of Ike Powell?  Did Gus ever think of that, huh?  Didn't think so. Plus, how underhanded is it for them to use Coach Fountain to secure the commitment of one, Bill Taylor, only to send Fountain packing once Taylor is locked in? 

I'm an Auburn man, but Bill Taylor should be allowed to transfer without having to sit out a year.  Scott Fountain was his mentor, his reason for choosing Auburn. What could possibly be going through the mind of Bill Taylor right now?

This all goes back to Jay Jacobs.  I just know it.

Do you have any clue how many cuttings I have scheduled?  And the logistics of it all are almost impossible to coordinate with the list growing longer each day.  Take simp for instance.  He just made the list but he's half-way down page 16.  And even though his ball comment would normally give him high priority status, I can't be cuttin' bitches in South Florida on Thursday and stop over in southeast Alabama on Friday while I'm in route to Dallas.  (I hate that guy)

I need to hire an Executive Bitch Cuttin' Assistant.

Simp done moved close to Bham so you have an extra drive now. Better Get to cuttin.

We want Rocker.
That gives us quality on all three levels.
But we probably get the offensive guy from Arkansas instead. Meh.

I still want a "real" QB coach.
That is the post that plagues us the most.

Lindsey hasn't got enough time to develop QBs.

I say get Whitfield or Mastrole.
Yeah, one up #everyfuckingbody else.

I already looked into it. He pays hourly plus .30/ mile and all you can steal from the victims.

No benefit package.
Cheap bastard!

Wondering if there was a Pete Carroll connection there with Quinn.

Deep thoughts, by Jack Handey.

You could be on to something there.

Coach Malzahn brings in a huge name in Coach Larry Porter to coach TEs & HBs and be the new recruiting coordinator (his specialty).
Coach Horton will be the RBs & Special Teams coach (he was the return team coordinator last year).

No talk about this hire?  Apparently he's our recruiting ace in Florida and Louisiana.

Craig without the personality conflict?  Hopefully a better position coach.

Need a better scheme in the passing game before it makes any difference who the position coach is.  Unless Lindsey changes that, it won't matter.

I do find it weird that Porter isn't handling Special Teams, he did that at UNC besides RB's.  So we bring him in to coach TE's and leave Horton at RB (which I'm ok with) but then give Horton ST as well? Kinda odd.
