First and foremost, let's look at Auburn OC's Scot Loeffler's press conference from the end of Auburn's loss to Georgia- where he says, pretty much, the same things he's said all season long...
Which has been a long season all along...
So, let's take stock in the situation...
The idea that the President of Auburn University, Jay Gogue, decided to float the name of the OC who had a failed try in Nebraska before he ended up letting Teddy Bridgewater run his own show- to success at Louisville this season...
If that is the number one candidate in President Gogue's mind... Gogue won't be around much longer, either...
Let's take stock in alternatives as to what went down... and what is going down...
Was it because Michael Dyer was given a different set of rules and then let go...???
Was it because the school and its coaching staff handled the deaths of three of their own so poorly that it split the team from the coaching staff that, probably, alienated one from the other...???
Was it because members of the university staff- coaching and otherwise- put too much weight and faith in religious content and influence when kids today (while interested to a degree) don't want to be pounded around the ears by it all the time...???
Was it because DC Brian van Gorder actually said, in a moment of honesty after the game what he said below...???
((HT: al.com))
Was it because Willy Martinez is now the new DB coach when the entire college football landscape knows his history...???
Was it because head coach Gene Chizik is now poking his nose into Loeffler's offense when his history is defensive...???
And now Chizik "has a plan" for next season...??? He waited until Game 10 to start his freshman quarterback when he admitted that, after the Arkansas game, Jonathan Wallace was part of the plan after all...
Was it because an external security force was hired to keep an eye on folks for enforcing curfew...???
Was it because of a lack of accountability that was evident as far back as the winter and spring workouts IMMEDIATELY AFTER WINNING A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP that was clear to NFL Network analyst Heath Evans when he worked out on campus in and around the team...???
Was it because there is, apparently, a caste system of playing athletes who had stronger Fellowship of Christian Athletes ties than those who did not- even if the non-FCA athletes were more talented...???
The HQ asks...
Is that enough for you...???
Let us know...
And this university is going to have to make a kill-shot to figure out who their new head coach is going to be. But the larger issue will be... will the school pull the trigger after December 1 to trim the buyout max at $7.5-million...???
And if that's the case, then the school can't wait much later than that to get someone on the ground so the recruits allegedly in place for National Signing Day in February won't leave en masse...
And the new guy will either have to be economically feasible and a "hot coordinator" or a mid-major conference coach who is hot now as well (Dykes, Hudspeth, and Berry for a few...)
Good luck figuring this one out, y'all...
