Source: Auburn interviewed Charlie Strong, interested in Petrino

[Dustin4Vols]

Auburn Tigers interviewed Charlie Strong for coaching vacancy, according to report - ESPN

 

[TennesseeOrange]

Strong said he didn't interview. TFWIW

 

[McCat]

Idk why anyone wants to coach at Auburn. They're batstuff crazy down there, sanctions looming, firing coaches 2yrs after winning a NC.

Sounds like a perfect fit for a guy like Petrino.

That plus he was Auburn OC in 2002 before he got his first HC job (so he has ties to Auburn, criteria they used for hiring Chizik). I'll be shocked if he doesn't end up there.

Meanwhile UT interviews ????

Yep. He also tried to snake Tuberville's job away from him while he was there...so, good times

 

[Shaun1985]

I could see Petrino being the only top level coach taking this position. They both have black eyes so it fits....

meanwhile ut interviews gruden in the back of a hertz rental car while admiring lovies plane that continues circling them

fyp!

 

[TrueOrange]

fyp!

...don't know where to begin on that one


It almost sounds like you setup a high school prom date

Sounds romantic huh

I doubt even petrino would touch this mess.

Petrino would touch anything so long as it had bleach blonde hair.

 

[PennVol]

Auburn is in a worse situation than we were when Kiffin bolted. They would be extremely fortunate to get either of those guys.

shades of gray, UT fans are batsh!t crazy, we are also in bad shape very impatient and just got handed a 2 year penalty. I don't see a lot of difference between the Barn and UT, except their crystal is newer....

 

[KingNick865]

They'd do well to get the more high character guy in Strong.

 

[WillisWG]

Strong won't be on their list if Louisville loses tonite

 

[orangesox]

I doubt even petrino would touch this mess.

I disagree. Both parties are damaged goods. They need a coach who's egomaniacal enough to go toe to toe with Saban, and he needs a school that has nothing to lose by taking a chance on him.

 

[govols120]

Petrino to Auburn could happen. As for actual ethical coaches, they'd be lucky to get someone like Golden

Seriously? They havent gotten their sanctions yet which could be much, much worse than UT's. That is kind of a huge difference.HUGE

 

[ncvol17]

AU, Bobby Lowder & Petrino seem a match made in Hades...Wine, women, and wins....
