    DJ Durkin

    May not be staying at Auburn. I don't think it's a done deal by any means. But there seems to be some doubt about him coming back there.

    If he is not in Auburns plans, his defense was not bad at Auburn.

    Four losses by 7 or less. Other than the Vandy game, they were a good defense.

    I feel like part of the breakdown in talks with Jon, and I don't have it confirmed but was told by enough people, was that Jon didn't want to keep DJ on staff. A lot felt like when Golesh took the job, that was indication that DJ would stay.

    Durkin will have lots of options if he doesn't stay at Auburn

    Durkin would be great but likely we would be down his list.
    Brad white and Ron Roberts seem more gettable.

    From some OM people this morning, "Ron will be in the building Monday and I would not be shocked if he's in the booth for the playoffs."

    I can see that for sure, he's a good get for them.

    Yes, I'm sure HR was heavily involved in his final days at Maryland.

    I could see Durkin in the running for the UK job. They aren't going to spend a ton of money on a coach and I don't know who else is left out there at this point.

    A lot of their fans want Will Stein, the current OC at Oregon. He's from Kentucky and played at Louisville.

    That could end up being a better hire than what Florida and Auburn made. Will Stein might be the top OC in college right now.

    Would be nice but, Durkin is a little out of our league.
    Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.
