Auburn could get the same dirt bag of a good coach in freeze for like $2 million. I don’t want Kiffin for $11mil. Stupid.


Finally an intelligent auburn fan. If I was an auburn, and thank God I’m not, I’d be pissed if my schools first target was Kiffin lol. He’s a decent settle hire but you should be aiming higher. Is your athletic department just that dysfunctional currently?

Well obviously they are not since you are claiming everywhere Fickell has been hired

Apparently there’s a hang up in that deal that may swing things back to the original white whale, lane Kiffin

If Lane turns down Auburn how will Auburn spin this?

I don’t know but I’m sure they will. If I were them I’d just focus on the facts. Kiffin is a good coach but not elite and they should be able to do better.

But I bet they don’t

There won't be any spin from Auburn, because there wouldn't have been a formal offer.

The only spin you'll get will be from fans and beat writers, which what does that matter?

Of course there has been an offer. Do you know how contract negotiations work? It takes alot of back and forth before a deal is reached. Ole Miss didn’t offer a new contract for shits and giggles.

That’s not how it works. Any name linked to your job who doesn’t get hired turned you down. I learned that last year in our search on this very board.

That is absolutely how it works.

You come to terms and have an agreement prior to the formal offer.

This is a contract negotiation for a head coaching gig, not a job working in HR for Yellawood.

Exactly. When the name first surfaces on message boards it means the job has been offered and if that guy doesn’t get hired it’s because he turned you down. The internet doesn’t lie. If we all know a guy is being linked to a job then clearly that school has made an offer. And when someone else gets hired it’s because the rumored guy rejected your school bc nobody wanted the job.

This your first time coaching search?

The formal offer and contract come after the terms are agreed to by both parties.

The excuse will be “he wasn’t technically offered!”

This board 2 weeks ago:
Kiffin is an elite coach and if Auburn doesn't give him whatever he wants, they're idiots. They won't get him anyway and will hire Mullen or Muschamp.

This board now (that it's a strong possibility):
Kiffin is overrated and if Auburn gives him what he wants, they're idiots. Just another Auburn coaching search cluster.

If you think a school ever spins missing on a coaching hire, I can't help you.

If Auburn doesn't hire Kiffin, you'll never see anything from the university and the stuff that will pop up on message board will be 95% BS. Auburn has no true insiders that no anything. It's locked down after Jay Jacobs left.

Don’t take it so seriously.
