If you look back at December 2020, it’s hard to believe that we’ve gotten this far. We went through 1,000+ comment threads each day in the week and change between Gus Malzahn’s firing and the hiring of Bryan Harsin just prior to Christmas. We live tweeted an Oregon Board of Trustees meeting wherein they discussed extending Mario Cristobal’s employment with the Ducks. The emotions of the Auburn Fambleh rose and fell with each successive leak saying that Brent Venables, Billy Napier, or Kevin Steele was set to be the new coach.
Quite honestly, Allen Greene came out of the dark with a sucker punch when he hired Bryan Harsin, because all of the conventional intelligence was wrong.
