Around SBN: Jim Irsay: We Can Make It Work With Peyton Manning

As expected, Louisiana Tech officials (through a search firm) reached out to Auburn offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn today to gauge his interest in their head coaching job. Tiger fans can breathe a sigh of relief. Malzahn told them he's happy at Auburn.

"My family and I love Auburn,'' Malzahn said in a statement Monday. "Coach Chizik is an outstanding coach to work for, and Auburn is a great place to be both professionally and personally.

"I'm excited about the future of this program and helping Auburn build on the foundation that Coach Chizik has established the last 13 months."

a great incentive to stay put for Malzhan and prolly a lot to do with why Kirby is still with us in T-town

Awesome!!

With Malzhan staying on board like that, I really think we’re going to have a great recruiting class stay together. Now, let’s get those defensive tackles to come on down to the Plains!

Thank goodness

If he had left, though, who would we get for OC? Promote Trooper Taylor? Curtis Luper? Hire externally?

You know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese in France?

He can do better than LaTech

It’s still a bad job. Winning 8 games was a huge thing for them, even if it was bookmarked by bad seasons.

Fumbles. It was always Fumbles

good news gets better

follow coach mal’s statement with lattimore’s comments on mal’s offense, and it’s looking like a record setting recruiting class for auburn, with electric days ahead.

Congrats!

Now let’s beat Bama!

I'm wearing this Auburn shirt because I went to Auburn. You are wearing that Alabama shirt because you went to Walmart.

he likes the idea of he and dyer hitting the field- reminds him of jones/mcfadden at arkansas.

I'm relieved...

…and I’m looking forward to All of this years coaching staff changes to be finalized. Then I’ll completely be relieved. At this juncture, I do not want to lose any of our coaches, especially Malzan.
