🏈 🔥 Hot Seat 2025 / Coaching Carousel:

I hope they don't do it, but if Auburn wants to be serious program moving forward, they'll go hire Jon sumrall. He would turn that program around and build a winning culture. I hope they don't, and instead go hire Lashlee or some other douche.
If boogs want to be serious about football, they’ll tell Yellafella jock sniffer and others to take a hike. Let’s hope they continue to go what they’ve always done.
 
Do you have sources or are you just talking? Inquiring minds want to know….

FWIW... I can tell you this based on what I've heard... Cohen is trying to give Freeze some time, he is hesitant to make a change, certainly doesn't "want" to make one. I think his background as a coach himself has a good bit to do with that. Rane and the boosters feel like a change is necessary and needs to happen sooner than later to keep auburn from falling further behind others. They've been working behind he scenes for a couple of weeks on getting the funds situated (which isn't too much other than the fact they've had to do it twice already in the last 5 years). Unlike Harsin though, Freeze is well liked by all involved, even if faith in him has evaporated. They are supposedly taking his health into consideration as well, as they believe that has impacted his performance to a degree. I think there are questions as to how Freeze will have Sexton handle it, he's a hard ball player, but I think they are aiming for a separation with a soft landing for Freeze where he can save some face.

As far as who they'd replace him with... supposedly there is early division among boosters. Rane will more than likely make the call... the last time the AD went rouge and made it, he ended up getting fired. But IMO, Sumrall, Lashlee, and Key would be in the mix.

I’ve even read where a few want to give it to Durkin. Don’t know if that would fly considering his flop at Maryland

Also a possibility, but IMO, it would mean 1 of 2 things... either he takes over soon and they finish the season very strong -or- they get a bunch of "no's" and he ends up next in line as some point. Like Hugh, he's another guy they could get on the cheap though if they wanted....
