Two notes:
#1 - Syracuse is hard after Skip Holtz at East Carolina and he's listening.
#2 - ESPN was reporting much of the day yesterday that Auburn will speak with Buffalo Head Coach Turner Gill.
If I were a Auburn fan I'd be really skeptical on this interview. Really skeptical.
Nothing against Turner Gill, but let's look at where he coaches. A man in that position, before reaching a BCS level, would spend some time at a mid-tier school before going on to a multi-million dollar budgeted program.
Was there something he did in 2006 when Buffalo faced Auburn that stuck out in their minds? I don't know, maybe scoring 3X the amount of points Miss. St. did this year?
It would be a nice PR move, no doubt.
But, at this level of play, all he has for experience is a position coach, QB's.
And...if you think about where they started and where they are now?
