Title: A Different Interview
Post by: Snaggletiger on July 28, 2021, 09:41:04 AM
Cornelius Williams is the wide receivers corch at Auburn.  That name may be as familiar, or unfamiliar as the names of our actual wide receivers this year.  Anyway, he was the speaker at an Auburn Club meeting at our church recently.  This is second hand info because I did not attend.  A good, and reliable, friend told me about his talk last night, and one of the things I found interesting was how he wound up at Auburn. 

He was coaching receivers at Troy for several years before coming to AU.  I know Troy and Boise State played last year, so maybe Co Harvinger liked what he saw.  But after Harvinz was hired, Williams gets a call that they want to interview him the next day.  He said he gets his suit on and heads to The Planes.  He meets with Harbin for almost an hour and a half.  Then Harvard tells him they are going down to get him into some gear. Cornelius be like.....WTF???

They get him outfitted in some coaching gear, go out on the practice field, and Harsinz tells him, "I'm an incoming freshman wide receiver, and it's my first day of practice. Take me through some drills."  He said all the other coaches hired at that time were out there and they spent almost two hours on the practice field running drills and talking strategy.

Maybe I missed the memo, but I've never heard of that before at any level.  Don't know why exactly, but it makes me like Co Harzinz even more.  Plus, Williams said Boise was extremely strong and disciplined.  I like that even better.

All I got from that story is that you are a Godless church skipper.
