    Derrick Mason Leaving Auburn

    That?s rumor going around. Can?t paste the article from my phone. Looks like they will promote the LB coach to DC.

    I think Derrick was a bad head coach, although Vandy isn't a great situation for anyone. But he's a really good defensive coordinator in my opinion.

    Didn't say. I got the impression Harsin threw him under the bus.

    I'm hearing Oklahoma State.

    Harsin feels like a dead man walking.

    That?s idiotic. Mason is an upper level/elite DC. I agree with Hancock. Harsin is dead and doesn?t even know it.

    Good. Couldn't happen to a better bunch of assholes than the Barn. Harsin was a terrible hire, he's now run off an elite DC, and fired an OC and replaced him with a young, unproven OC. Burn Barn Burn!

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. Harsin is their JoMo. He'll be let go for the betterment of the program next year.

    If Harsin is still coaching by our game I'll be a little amazed. They could legit start 2-5. We're their 9th game. They play Arkansas then us. They play us in Davis Wade. Harsin being fired before our game is a real possibility.

    7 games. Their bye week is after the Ole Miss game. By then they should know how horrible it has gotten and make a move.

    First 7 games are Mercer, San Jose St., Penn St., Missouri, LSU, Georgia and Ole Miss. I see at most 3 wins out of that.

    Hearing it may be a personal decision for D Mason...

    Mason knows that ship is sinking. OSU is a good spot for him.

    That's exactly what he did. Elevated his DC at Boise to DC at Auburn.

    If Mason left as a personal decision, that probably didn't bode well for others that Auburn could have brought in that might have moved the needle for them.

    Harsin is a dead man walking right now. He bit off more than he could chew and he may take Auburn down with him. They have played really bad football the last few years.

    If his DC at Boise was better than Mason, he wouldn?t have been at Boise. Harsin?s like a guy I knew that got a great deal on a 4 yr old immaculate Mercedes and then went and traded it for a new Chevrolet HHR.
    😂
