Things are happening in Auburn alabama as we speak
Brandon Walker is stirring the pot! Lol
Cohen is their AD now...this is like Schloss to State. Auburn better prepare for Missouri's Offensive Coordinator. He's a sneaky good hire I'm sure**
Reports are that Moorhead was seen getting in a limo with Cohen outside of a Zales.
Its Kiffin or Bust for them
Word is they passed on Freeze because of the Background check.
There is one candidate, however, that has not publicly stated interest in the Auburn job, but has not silenced the rumors, either. That would be Ole Miss head coach, Lane Kiffin.
Kiffin, who is known to poke fun at certain situations that arise throughout the SEC, has not tweeted about the Auburn opening, in either a positive or a negative fashion. Could there be a reason for that? One SEC football expert believes so.
Paul Finebaum, SEC Network analyst and radio show host joined the Monday edition of “McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning” on Jox 94.5 in Birmingham to recap the week that was in SEC football. Among those topics, was Lane Kiffin’s potential interest in the vacant Auburn head coaching position. Based on a recent conversation, Finebaum feels that Kiffin has thought strongly about pursuing the opportunity.
“It’s just my observation that Lane Kiffin is thinking about it,” Finebaum said Monday. “The subject came up in one circumstance that I was in. He just kind of nodded his head and shook his head as Lane likes to do. He’s been very careful not to say anything about it. I don’t think there’s any doubt that it’s on his mind.”
Kiffin joins Liberty head coach Hugh Freeze as an outside name that has gotten the most attention since Bryan Harsin’s firing on Oct. 31. However, interim coach Cadillac Williams has quickly become a favorite amongst current and former Tiger players. The sweepstakes appears to be an open book until the end of the month.
I would be surprised in an announcement is made before the regular season is over. Particularly if it’s a head coach at a current d1 school. If it’s coach Prime it might come this week
Kiffin is Auburn's No 1 choice and they are going to make Kiffin tell them he doesn't want the job. Money ain't an issue. Prime is supposedly interested in the job but does Auburn share that interest and is he actually on their list? Nobody outside those making the hire probably know that.
Well Cook was considered one of the top athletic boosters (Auburn) in the country last year, and he spoke to the Auburn football team the day before the Iron Bowl last year, but maybe he isn't. Yellawood is the top Auburn booster. Bobby Lowder used to be. He used to basically own Auburn from what some said.
Certain Media heads are saying its a done deal. After the egg bowl though
There's some chatter on a couple of AU boards saying the same. They are also saying maybe not until after the Iron Bowl b/c AU doesn't want to take away from Cadillac's big day. But, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if it starts leaking out about Weds of next week.
It would make sense for Kiffin to go to Auburn just like it made sense for Mullen to go to UF. These coaches want to coach at a school with easier resources than State or Ole Miss to win a National Championship. I think the big issue is the way coaches go about doing it.
Some Twitter media accounts are saying it's a done deal. Kiffin to Auburn.
Ole Miss will have to hire someone like Lebby
Can a coach like Lebby keep Dart at Ole Miss? According to Auburn 247 staff writers, Dart will be able to transfer without sitting out. They say the NCAA right now does not want lawsuits.
I wonder if Dante Dowdell will then go to Auburn with Lane instead of Oregon.
Another thing, Lane did not meet with recruits last Saturday before the Bama game. The bears have tried to cover it up saying he was just too focused on playing Bama.
If Lane does leave with best players, leaving OM in turmoil, we sure better take advantage of it. We did little to build on this type opportunity in years past! Hail State!
Rumor from an Auburn guy at work is that Kiffin is getting somewhere around 10 years and $120 Mil. If that is even remotely true then Ole Miss has no chance to keep him.
The state of Mississippi needs to do something or us and Ole Miss will always be a stepping stone job.
