2019 Hot Seat

Gus to FSU.
That wouldnt be a terrible move all around. AU doesnt fire Gus so they dont have to pay him. Gus gets to jump ship without being fired and moves to another top tier job. FSU gets a relatively high winning coach without a buyout, if you believe their financial troubles.
 
Maybe...

But, I don't think that Gus is dumb enough to willingly walk away from that sweeeeeeeeeeeeet buyout deal that Auburn gave him.
If FSU gives him a similar deal he isnt losing anything. That buyout likely gets offset by FSU so he isnt gaining anything additional there.

So, I don't think FSU is dumb enough to do that.

Gus really had AUburn bent over the woodpile when they made that deal. It is craaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzy! At the time, he was hot and had another suitor.

Gus and his agent played Auburn like a fiddle.

i don't know the state of FSU AD to comment on your first line. but to the rest you are correct.

i think the first line comes down to who they go after, and how the process goes. if he is their first call and he says no, they probably move on. but if they have heard no a couple times, and that goes public, they might get desperate with Gus.

really i don't know how likely any of it is, just pointing out it makes some type of sense.
 
Looking at the list it's funny to see Brohm on there at Purdue. Last year they were loving on him for beating OSU. Another one hit wonder.

Interesting that Malzahn isn’t on there. Granted, Auburn is 7-2, but I think he’s canned if he loses to both Georgia and Alabama and finishes 8-4.
I think he walks regardless. That place is a no-win situation. Hope he lands at Arkansas.
