I have been thinking a lot about coaching changes. I posted on the bunker a week ago about the past experience of Tubs, Chizik and Malzahn. I think Auburn is similar to UF and UT in terms of historic top-15 programs in wins and ability to recruit. I think the piece that is missing is elite head coaching. Elite head coaches are certainly hard to find, but maybe it can be easier if you can define the criteria that makes a coach elite.
Here is my current list of elite coaching criteria:
1. Power-5 experience 3 years minimum
2. Top-25 program experience
3. Proven winner
4. X's and O's guy. Need to be a legitimate tactician.
5. Passion to coach college kids/recruitment
Thoughts? Feel free to add to the list.
