When Did The Football Downfall Start

[bigbub50]

The start of the downfall was hiring Moorhead. We missed on that hire. Yes, he made bowls and beat ole miss but he lost discipline pretty quick and ole miss was down. It was about to be a disaster

Then we made bad decision after bad decision.

Hiring Leach was a bad decision in hind sight in that he only had 3 years left alive. Great coach. Great discipline. But, his reworking of the roster killed our future. Once you go leach, it takes a year or 2 or 3 to rework the roster to get back to non leach football. And Leach wasnt playing the nil and transfer portal game.

Getting out to a slow start on NIL killed this program. AD left because he knew he had screwed that up and Auburn already had it rolling. He fell up hill. We couldnt re work the roster because we didnt have the money to do it.

His death was at a horrible time. Our president choosing to hire Arnette before hiring an AD was the next bad decision. I get that it was horrible timing but AD first, then head coach.

Mullen also made a horrible decision. I know he was burned out with us and wanted to move up and we didnt have a target. But, he would have won 11 games with the team coming back. And now he is at UNLV.

Hiring Moorehead started the downfall. And I got a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach when he was asking our players their ring size when he was introduced.
