Hugh Freeze if he want's to keep his job. I think HF is the only one Gus would trust enough to let run their own offense. Aside from that, it's gonna be the same shit show with a different name.

There's the problem and why Kodi Burns will get it. Gus doesn't trust anyone and ain't turning control over to them.

I'm telling you all once and for all:
Hiring Hugh Freeze is akin to plotting a course for the Titanic to make sure you pass through an iceberg field.
Also? Hiring Kodi Burns would be the most Auburn thing ever. Should also result in the immediate termination of the president, the AD, Malzahn, Chizik, Bowden, Dye and Aubie.

We should leave the SEC and join the Sun Belt.

Just a hunch but, If Bryant announces the University of Auburn tonight I expect it to be Brandon Streeter or Jeff Scott
if he announces somewhere else....Kodi Burns
-
Bottom line, I don't think it matters honestly.

It will either be Mr. Burns or Josh Floyd

What's this University of Auburn you speak of?
And a couple of insiders on other boards are suggesting it is going to be Burns. Let's hope not.

Saw a disturbing fact on the dot I am a gay twerker that has no balls!!!! I also have no idea how to use the quote function to post stories, so I annoy the piss out of others. I like male genatalia in and around my mouth.. Our last two OC's left on their own to take the same jobs at UConn and Kansas.
Who cares about Gus Malzahn anyway? The man has only one offense, for Christ's sake! Rhett Lashlee? Scott Loeffler? Chip Lindsey? They're the same offense! Doesn't anybody notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

Back to the Pat Nix idea, I mentioned a while back in another thread that there are those around these parts think its a foregone conclusion that Nix will be hired on as a coach at AU. With the OC change happening, I'm thinking this may have some truth to it.
-

OK, first off, a lion, swimming in the ocean. Lions don't like water.
If you placed it near a river or some sort of fresh water source, that makes sense. But you find yourself in the ocean, I'm assuming off the coast of South Africa, coming up against a full grown 700 pound tuna with his 20 or 30 friends, you lose that battle, you lose that battle 9 times out of 10.
And guess what, you've wandered into our school of tuna and we now have a taste of lion. We've talked to ourselves. We've communicated and said "You know what, lion tastes good, let's go get some more lion".
We've developed a system to establish a beach-head and aggressively hunt you and your family.

Apparently Chip Lindsey kept a notebook of how many times Gus overruled him on plays during the games and what the results of said plays were. I would love to see those entries.

Is the SEC going to let anyone hire Freeze? Alabama tried to hire him earlier this year and they said no.

Nix would be a terrific fit WITHOUT Malzahn.
Been looking at his bio.
Was instrumental landing Calvin Johnson at Tech while guiding Reggie Ball at QB further than God intended including victories over Auburn among many.
He has a mixed background of offensive schemes having learned from Chan Gailey. Has had some so- so results overall as a college position coach/o.c however one might also look at the leadership above him and expectations among other factors.
Great dude, and family man. Was student athlete of the year at Auburn and we know him best for what he did as a player and now as the h.s. coach and mentor for his son Bo.
FWIW it's possible that he could turn Willis a workable QB.
Ball was poison for Auburn.
-

No idea man. I’m just saying he’s the only possibility where I think gus MAY leave him be to do his thing. And that’s if he clears those hurdles. Anyone else and he’s gonna do what he did to Rhett and chip. It’s a given.
-

If they let AU hire him, then go ahead and insert the Akbar meme (which is funny on a couple of levels here).

I definitely want Nix here and every 4* and 5* kid we can get. I've wanted Gus gone for years but eventually, he will exit stage left and I don't want to have to rebuild at that point. Keep paying for great talent, no matter what Gus does or doesn't do with it.

I want a field level O.C. that jumps in Gus's face and rips his headset off.
Actually I want a mutiny but those things mostly end messy.
-
Y'all, just let Gus design the plays, call the plays, all that. So if it blows up, there will be no scapegoats. Just him. Let's not ruin some other person's career by hitching them to Gustard.

Hell no. The most Auburn thing to ever Auburn is for Kodi to go to Incarnate Word as Special Teams Analyst. We fire Gus next year and then hire Kodi as HC.

From AUundercover....
Auburn's offensive coordinator search will take another turn later today.
The question is whether that turn is inside the Tigers' own athletics complex after former Ole Miss coach (https://247sports.com/Coach/Hugh-Freeze-1016) (https://247sports.com/Coach/Hugh-Freeze-1016) (https://247sports.com/Coach/Hugh-Freeze-1016) (https://247sports.com/Coach/Hugh-Freeze-1016)Hugh Freeze (https://247sports.com/Coach/Hugh-Freeze-1016), the top target in Gus Malzahn's search, accepted the head coaching position at Liberty late Thursday night, two sources told Auburn Undercover. It's becoming increasingly possible the Tigers promote from within to replace offensive coordinator (https://247sports.com/Coach/Chip-Lindsey-1120) (https://247sports.com/Coach/Chip-Lindsey-1120) (https://247sports.com/Coach/Chip-Lindsey-1120)Chip Lindsey (https://247sports.com/Coach/Chip-Lindsey-1120), according to one source, though it appears the focus could first turn to South Carolina running backs coach Bobby Bentley (https://247sports.com/Coach/Bobby-Bentley-3714).

Yep. A high school coach that got a break in the sec because the team that hired him wanted a player related/coached by him.

Hello Gus Malzahn
-
Again you guys all act as if the Offensive Coordinator position and who Gus hires means anything.
Also if the BoT is making anyone that Gus hires only have a 1 year contract we are going to have a hard time finding anyone willing to hitch their wagon to Gus, I still say it will be Kodi Burns...or that HS coach like Buzz mentioned earlier.

Twits say it's gonna be Bobby Bentley.
Here's his resume:
Four years as an assistant at Duncan High School
Eleven years as a head coach at Duncan High School
Two years as the head coach of Presbyterian where the Blue Hose went 6-5 and 4-8. (They were 0-11 the following season)
Back to Duncan
To Auburn for a year as an analyst under Gus
To SC as RBs coach (because they wanted his son).

This man already knows Gus is a control freak. And unless he is the lightning rod for an early season mutiny we don't want him or at least I don't.

I read on one of the pay sites that we are waiting in Bently. If he says no the we are going to promote Kodi and hire a QB coach. We are so fucked.

We are so fudgeed.

Here’s a radical plan.
Forget “head coachâ€. Forget OC.
Change the whole structure.
Hire a CEO of football. Let Gus be the head offensive coach and answer to him. Let Steele be the head defensive coach. The CEO doesn’t call plays. Doesn’t need to run practice. Just does the baby kissing political stuff

Can't pay this nitwit two and a half times the national average and call him head offensive coach. He has no more play calling mojo, it's gone.
Gus can recruit like a champ but the incoming talent does not improve.
He can't even score on a marginal hire now because he's damaged... and finished.
-
Our best bet is a restart with Bill Clark.
We can't or won't hire Freeze, Leavitt, Leach, Sciano or anyone established that just got a bump and nearly all of the young guns have been snatched up.
-

It’s funny y’all keep mentioning different names. I done told you what will happen. No one is going to leave a solid career to come coach us for one year and be fired. It will be Kodi Burns.
-

True. Both are miserably bad choices.
Tee Martin might drop in for a season.
Nobody wants his ass.
-
So many rumors.
AU wouldn't give Freeze a three-year deal.
Gus wouldn't guarantee Bryant that he'd be the starter.
Gus wouldn't agree in writing that Bentley could call plays without interference.
Tee Martin wants a multi-year deal.
GF was right. It's gonna be Kodi.
Don't get me wrong. I like Kodi. I admire his willingness to accept the horrific coaching that turned him from a Top Ten quarterback recruit into a semi-sorta wide receiver. But is he really qualified to take over as the fauxOC for a program with championship pedigree and aspirations??
This is the worst I've felt about Auburn football in my entire life. And that includes some pretty humiliating experiences.

I'm thinking it'll be, Pat Nix Co-OC/QB Coach & Kodi Burns will stay as the Co-OC/WR Coach...Malzahn will also be OC, that way everyone on offense is confused as fuck after the scripted plays have been used. 3 OCs all holding up different playcalling cards. It's going to be another long year at Auburn.
-
The Memphis OC/QB coach.
Interesting.
-
al.com hiked its leg and pissed all over it already...
Dillingham just finished his third season with Memphis, and is very young. He started as a graduate assistant with the Memphis Tigers in 2016, primarily working with the team’s quarterbacks.
The release noted that Malzahn will be the primary play-caller on offense, a role that Lindsey held during his tenure. Kodi Burns will add the role of passing game coordinator to his duties.
I don't feel very sporty myself. But if I'm being fair there's not much that would have placated me at this point.

Don't want the Nix duo spoiled by the presence of Malzahn OR Burns if he is of the like mind of Malzahn...if that's possible.

Gus is calling the plays from now on? We’ll be lucky to win 5 games next year.

I mean, hasn't he been calling them since mid last year? We'll look awesome for the scripted 10-15 and then drop off for two quarters only to revisit the script and make a rally. That will get us by the lesser teams. We'll get shellacked by the likes of Florida, TAMU, LSU, Georgia, and Alabama next year. Oh, and Oregon is going to tear us a new one.
-
I know it's trendy to shit all over all things AU football right now, but this wasn't the worst hire we could have made. It's a far better hire than the RB coach at USCe or KB.
That said, the whole situation is still fucked. But this is a decent hire.
-
So, looking at this through the brightest of sunshine glasses, maybe he can improve the run game philosophy. Memphis plowed through people like Harvey Weinstein at Sundance so there's reason to hope it can be good for Boobie, Kam, and whatever is behind them. Moreover, maybe he can help the offensive line be more offensive line and less offensive.

It’s all relative. If we weren’t in this hellacious situation the hire would be roundly and rightly scoffed at.
If Saban or Mullen or Kirby or Meyer or harbaugh or anyone else had made this hire we would be mocking it.

That’s what scares me with this guy some. I don’t root for Auburn’s demise contrary to what I’ve said before.
This guy is a legit qb coach. Nix is a special qb. Gus seems to be trending back towards the model that gave him magic in 13-14. I’m afraid they will have enough success not to be able to fire him next year. That’s my fear here.

Wonder if Gus will insist on starting Willis at the beginning of the season. And only after a few beatings will he go to Nix in desperation.

Didn't really matter who we hired did it?
Don't forget (calling Snags) Gus has now what taken back over the offense?
Is this the 3rd, 4th or 5th time we have switched I forget? He's gone from calling plays to saying he was just gonna be CEO to maybe calling plays again to now it is Lashlee, to all plays run through him but Lindsey is making the calls. Personally, I'm not shitting over Auburn football I just see this shit show for what it is.

The most gus thing to do would be to fuck around and win 9-10 games in 19 and save his own ass temporarily - again.

Coaching for his life it's highly doubtful Gus allows this dude to be any more than a fill-in for a more experienced Lindsey.

My point was/is though decent hire (I guess, not sure what we are basing this on) or not, was that it really doesn't matter if it had been the USCe RB coach or Kodi Burns. This guy isn't going to be calling the plays any more than Bently or Kodi was going to.

It’s a “decent hire†only in this context. In terms of Auburn football as a whole and the (perhaps misguided) perception of prestige with which we and others hold the program? Its a pfffzzzahhhh at best. He’s green, doesn’t break from the Malzahn closed circle, isn’t likely to pop with recruits...
he may be great. But it isn’t moving my needle.

Depends on what Gus trots out onto the field in the spring and at A Day. If he wants to go all Nick Marshall/Tre Mason with Bo/Boobie? Jury may be out on that one.
If he trots out the same hodge podge crap we saw with Chip? Yeah were doomed. I do wonder at times if the latter came from the power struggle. Dillingham may very well be a pure yes man, whose sole duty is relaying in plays in game, and developing Bo Nix/Malik Willis. Can Gus be full time OC and HC?

On that note, I doubt we see ANYTHING at Spring/A-Day. Gus is a paranoid sort and this episode has likely reinforced that paranoia. He doesn't want to give Oregon any looks even if it is the same 3 plays from 5 formations.

According to the article on Dilly Dilly's hiring, it specifically mentioned that he was not going to be the one calling the plays. I am assuming then that Gus will be. So...yes until he decides not to call them again.

Kodi Burns will be calling the plays

Y'all remember when Jarrett was going to have "more control at the line of scrimmage" over the offense and "could change plays" as we were told leading into the season?
What happened with all that?

Gus Malzahn got his guy.
With all due respect to new Auburn offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Kenny Dillingham, I say that tongue in cheek.
A week after Chip Lindsey left Malzahn to go join forces with Les Miles at Kansas, Auburn announced on Sunday night at 10 p.m. ET that it hired a 28-year-old assistant from Memphis to take the position. As recently as 2016, Dillingham was a grad assistant at Memphis.
I don’t want to poke holes at Dillingham’s résumé or insist that he isn’t one of the “rising stars in the profession†as Malzahn laid out in the official release, but I think it’s at least worth mentioning that this is a real paragraph in his bio on Memphis’ website:
Before joining the collegiate football ranks, Dillingham served as a coach in the Athletes in Training program from 2008-10. He also worked for the City of Scottsdale (Ariz.) as a football camp manager from 2009-13. Over that same period of time, Dillingham served in several capacities – from freshman coach to offensive coordinator – with the Chaparral High School.
In other words, when Malzahn was leading Auburn to a national title berth in 2013, Dillingham was working his way up as a football camp manager for the City of Scottsdale.
In other shocking news, Dillingham won’t be calling plays for Auburn. Malzahn will go back to filling that role, which he did in his first 3 seasons.
Call me crazy, but this says a ton about the current state of the program.
Again, I really don’t want this to come off as my way of saying Dillingham can’t succeed at Auburn. Of course he can. Young offensive minds are all the rage in football these days. We just watched 35-year-old Lincoln Riley lead his second Heisman Trophy quarterback in as many seasons. Maybe Dillingham was indeed the secret sauce behind Mike Norvell’s high-powered offenses at Memphis.
But to me, this hire is all about Malzahn trying to get control back. By bringing in someone nearly half his age, Malzahn has a coordinator who’s young enough to be his son. I’m not saying that he’ll get treated like that, but the fact that it came out that Malzahn will be handling play-calling duties now doesn’t exactly go against the belief that he hired a “yes man.â€
That’s what you’d expect someone entering a make-or-break year to do. Malzahn is. He knows it. Everyone at Auburn knows it. That’s why he’s putting all of his chips on himself to try and find the magic that he had early in his Auburn tenure.
In a different way, that’s why it made sense that Malzahn reportedly wanted to hire Hugh Freeze, AKA the other guy who beat Nick Saban twice. Considering how Freeze left Ole Miss and how desperate he is to rebuild his tarnished reputation, Freeze would’ve done anything that Malzahn asked of him. Malzahn could have taken on play-calling duties while Freeze was probably just giddy to get back into the SEC in an on-field role.
But that, in fitting Auburn fashion, didn’t get the nod of approval from the folks upstairs
It’s worth noting that according to Auburn Undercover (https://auburn.247sports.com/Article/Auburn-hires-Memphis-Kenny-Dillingham-as-new-offensive-coordinator-Gus-Malzahn-to-call-plays-126149796/), Dillingham agreed to a 2-year deal to become the Tigers’ new offensive coordinator.
Just sayin’.
So Auburn reportedly waved its multi-year contract restriction to hire Dillingham. Why? It was either desperate to fill the position with the Early Signing Period just a week and a half away, or it realized that Dillingham’s contract is probably half of what it would have paid Freeze.
Again, that’s just speculation. It’s also technically speculation to say that Dillingham wasn’t Auburn’s first choice.
And believe it or not, Auburn’s release had Dillingham’s experience as a football camp manager for the City of Scottsdale tweaked to “from 2007-12 Dillingham served in several coaching capacities with the Chaparral High School football program in Scottsdale, Ariz.â€
Dillingham is a hustler. No doubt. That’s why the guy was coaching junior varsity football … while he was a high school senior (https://www.commercialappeal.com/story/sports/college/memphis-tigers/football/2018/06/14/memphis-tigers-football-offensive-coordinator-kenny-dillingham-mike-norvell/698103002/). He’s basically been grinding as a coach since before he could legally vote. The fact that he’s risen to such heights so quickly is a testament to just how hard he’s worked.
But let’s be clear. Auburn doesn’t make a move like this if everything is business as usual. Malzahn will enter 2019 with a seat hotter than anyone in America, and nobody is going to blame the 28-year-old offensive coordinator if the Tigers’ offense repeats its 2018 offensive dud.
Malzahn wanted to get back to what he had with Rhett Lashlee, who was only 29 when he was hired as Auburn’s offensive coordinator in 2013. He was just over a decade removed from being Malzahn’s quarterback at Shiloh Christian High School (Ark.). And despite how things ended, that plan benefitted Auburn greatly in the short-term. There’s no doubt that Malzahn is trying to recreate that dynamic with the 28-year-old Dillingham.
It wasn’t a coincidence that in the release that Auburn sent out at 10 p.m. ET on Sunday night, it made no mention of Dillingham’s age, or that he’s one of the youngest FBS coordinators in the country. That’s fine. They didn’t have to. The internet took care of that.
There’s another sentence that wasn’t in the team’s release that certainly could’ve been.
“Auburn is desperate, and everything that’s happened on The Plains the last few months suggests that 2019 will be filled with angst.â€

Because the Twirly Bird worked well with Lashlee. There was no power struggle, Gus had final say on the calls.
Don't forget Lindsey resigned, dude left on his own accord to rid himself of Gus. Again it didn't matter who we hired at OC Gus is calling the plays next year. We could have hired Bobo the Chimpanzee for OC.

It’s a “decent hire†only in this context.
and see I don't see it as a decent hire in any context. It's a warm body who may/may not be decent at recruiting and that's about it.

I don’t think we disagree man. Other than the stories of Chip and Gus on the matter of plays. Sometimes you could tell it was gus. Sometimes it had chip written all over it. That back n forth and hybrid of play calling was the issue to me.
The plus with Dilly is he is coming in as a yes man. And to NOT call plays. Gus will own this one all by his lonesome. I am curious if he tries to go back to the 13 mojo.
Sent a couple of txts this morning stating what the author said about the “2013 magicâ€. Not saying I think it will work but he’s making his own personal “guster’s last stand†with it.

Marshall could misread at mesh and get 7 or 8 yards. He was also quick enough to find a receiver open from a run scheme. If a guy is slower he will certainly be more apt to leave it with a back and passing game will not flow as freely. I hope it's Willis because I don't want any of these assholes fucking up Nix's game. They will ruin him.

Malzahn will call plays until the end of the Oregon game. Then, he'll announce that he's better suited to be a CEO type and will turn over the play calling to the very capable, Coach Dilly Dilly. From that point forward, they'll have a string of great practices and the future will be bright.

Seriously though, wtf is wrong with Auburn. Now that the BBall team has came back to life, the football program is digging its one grave. Its really becoming almost unbearable. Shit, who am I kidding, it is unbearable. I wouldn't be surprised to see Nix decommit and go elsewhere at this point.

There was a time when our favorite son Pat Sullivan was busy leading a TCU program to a 7-4 record which nobody else had done for decades. He had previously labored under Dye as the O.C. but had moved on to rebuild a perenial loser to respectability.
Meanwhile the Auburn program was slowly wilting into the abyss and eventual probation by which Dye was forced to step down.
Terry Bowden took the reins and the team responded by going 13-0.
Some might call it providence or just dumb luck. The cupboard was far from bare but there was a losing attitude lingering throughout the ranks that had to be exorcised. Anyway, Tot hung a shingle, changed the mantra and we got some keen graphics.
It was nice while it lasted.
