Assumed he would fit as next Auburn coach after Harsin in 3-4 years, but this guy will be lucky to see a second season.Lash not leaving SMU yet, he’ll be there for at least the next 2 years.
Agreed but it won't necessarily be any indictment of Hurtt and at least he'll probably get 2 years of guaranteed coordinator level salary and the resume bullet point. Ol' Pete's time there has just ran its course. Seemed like they were never able to recover roster-wise after they actually had to pay Russell Wilson.Hurtt will be gone along with Pete Carroll after the season.

Hurtt feels very much a lame duck hire, Dorsey on the other probably can’t fail if he tried because that offense is loaded, it was a really good move for him and he’ll get a Hc spot sooner than later
Yes because the NFL decision makers must have their opinions/hires treated as the golden rule…Not good enough for some to be DC/OC here but good enough for an nfl team. Can't explain that.
Dorsey paired with Joe Brady is an amazing combination .. going to be fun to watch the Bills this year.Hurtt feels very much a lame duck hire, Dorsey on the other probably can’t fail if he tried because that offense is loaded, it was a really good move for him and he’ll get a Hc spot sooner than later
Unfortunately a lot of our fans are incapable of having a nuanced discussion about Dorsey. I don't think anyone was saying they hated the idea of hiring Dorsey--at least not in recent months. It was more a matter of preference relative to some of the other candidates being discussed. Some fans preferred Briles or Brady because we have a better idea of the type of offense they would be running. With Dorsey, the type of offense he would run is a complete unknown since he's never been an OC before. That's all most of us were saying. Unfortunately some interpreted it as "OMG WHY DO YOU HATE KEN DORSEY!" and now feel vindicated that he got an NFL OC job, which nobody ever doubted would happen. And as you noted, some systems and coaches are better suited for the NFL. Sometimes more complex systems do not translate well to college because of the limitations on practice time in college.Y’all really upset about the Dorsey talk huh? sheesh. I see nothing wrong with people who preferred someone not named Dorsey. A lot of ppl wanted a wide open Air Raid Esque offense. Doesnt seem like Dorsey. His style prob better suited for the NFL anyway
If I’m Lashlee I wouldn’t go anywhere near Auburn for my first HC job.Assumed he would fit as next Auburn coach after Harsin in 3-4 years, but this guy will be lucky to see a second season.
Manny coming from Temple to Miami 2.0If I’m Lashlee I wouldn’t go anywhere near Auburn for my first HC job.
He’d be setup to fail & it could kill his entire career trajectory.
Think he is smart enough to know thatManny coming from Temple to Miami 2.0
Literally the same exact situation if they pulled that trigger.
Lashlee isn’t cut out for an SEC job anyway. Big 12 or ACC, maybe. But SMU is a great place for him. Low-key a top 25 job in college football.
I agree.Think he is smart enough to know that
Still any smoke with Coen? I didn’t realize this before, but it looks like Coen and Whipple played together at UMass in 2008. Both were QBs.

Dorsey becomes an OC in the NFL
It’s almost like these GMs aren’t checking in on the GMs on CIS before making these decisions.
