    If Pruitt is doing his job correctly then he already has a deal in place with either Craig Kuligowski or Tosh Lupoi to take over for Rocker as dline coach in December.

    Having roomed with an AE major as an undergrad, the thought of taking those classes while playing football, especially QB, is insane to me. Dobbs must be able to go days at a time without sleep.

    Tosh is in the NFL now. I strongly doubt he would leave that to be a position coach here.

    Because he was a dumbass on that particular deal

    In Butch’s defense, Ferguson was a great QB.

    All he needed was good coaching and a less-than-moronic offensive system.

    Austin Thomas would have had a huge impact here but Fulmer was not going to give him the latitude he wanted. It was a bad move by Fulmer and Pruitt. Imo

    That would mean Fulmer is realizing he needs help. Would be a huge step in the right direction.

    We’ve been supposed to hire Austin Thomas for 10 years.

    RockyHill Loves Auburn more than Tennessee.

    I don’t know a lot about Austin Thomas, is he dirty as hell? Is he like a genius? I don’t get it.

    He's a slightly OCD guy that knows everyone and takes care of organizing any and everything to do with recruiting, from who to target, how to target them, visits, travel to and from campus all that good stuff.

    He learned under Fulmer and Kiffin, not necessarily the dirty stuff, but the organizational stuff.

    Who's important in the recruit's life? Mom, dad, coach, grandma, grandpa or whoever. What's the kid want to be? What connection does the people close to the recruit have with anyone on staff?

    The idea that he would expect to have authority to hire staff seems odd to me.
