Cadillac is going to muddy the waters here. And Auburn, in true Auburn fashion, is going to allow a mess to be created. He’s done an admirable job in creating some positivity, as should’ve been expected. But I don’t think he’s viewing this audition in the same way that the upper brass are. There’s zero chance he actually gets the job, imo, but the players are gravitating to him and will likely demand he gets serious consideration. When they hire someone else, they will have a locker room of guys who will now have wanted to play for two different coaches, neither of whom they’ll be playing for. If they don’t crush the hire, they’ll be an even bigger disaster than I imagined.
And yes, Freeze just showed why he wasn’t ever my choice. Really good head coach that will win 9-10 games, but never a championship. We already had something similar.
