So Greg Brown leaves and we get Mgriff back again. Don’t think it’s an upgrade or downgrade but just sort of meh. Surprised Woodson didn’t get promoted

Upgrade, IMO.

How would it have been a promotion for Woodson? He will coach one position group of DBs and and McGriff will coach the other. Same as the Brown/Woodson did

I thought Greg did pretty well and McGriff’s one recruiting class was terrible. Thought maybe they’d kind of promote Woodson to being in charge of the secondary and then hiring another recruiter or something. Idk but I wasn’t upset when McGriff left

I think McGriff is a good coach and I am glad he's back but it's boog hut hut so I have zero excitement about any part of it.

We likely would have signed a 5-star DB had he not left for OM. But he was also here less than year and was recruiting off the 2015 season and 2016 season. Difficult for any coach to recruit on.

I'm not saying he is a world beater, but he is an very good position coach (coach and recruiter).

I personally consider it an upgrade. Has NFL experience and considered a good recruiter.

But also this:

When Brown was leaving, my immediate thought was let’s promote Woodson and hire a recruiter for the offense (specifically Offensive Line) but Gus seems content to let JB Grimes suck ass forever

Can't imagine us wanting to go 6 coaches on offense and only 4 on defense (had we hired another offensive guy).

We can still get th defensive coaches to help JB. Other schools do.

Our biggest issue has been zeroing in a few select guys (this is a Gus issue) and waiting them out and then missing in some and having little back up plan.

I think our biggest issue is that our current OL coach continues to get obliterated by the actual qualified OL coaches around the conference for those “select guys” every year.

Elite OL recruits, tackles especially, just don’t want to play for JBG. And I can’t really blame them. He sucks.

LOL,everyone gravy trainin' this upcoming season. It should be remarkable to watch, similar to the Hindenburg explosion.

He's the OL coach Auburn deserves.

Anyone else thinking Gus hasn't had control of a single hire this off-season? Basically we will approve these hires and only these hires for salary?

If he did hire these guys, I’d be tickled to see who he had on his list below Dilly Dilly at OC.
