Any news on Muschamp, reports from the TX site has him going. I hope not that is going to suck if it is true.

,,,,why Muschamp would leave Auburn to take a similar position somewhere else, for about the same money.  He has said that Tubs is the best coach he has ever worked for and he is making a great salary.  

If Muschamp were going to leave because of the money, the Southern Miss job should have been paying more than what he is making at Auburn or would make at Texas.

If this was a head coaching position, that would be OK, but, since it isn't, if I were Tubs, this wouldn't be sitting well with me.  I would be thinking I just went to bat for you and got you a pretty good raise, and this is how you re-pay me?  You are thinking about leaving for a similar position?  Nope, it just wouldn't go over to big with me.

The media, even ESPN, has started saying the SEC is the toughest conference.  If Muschamp's defense, in the SEC, could contribute to a championship run, wouldn't that say more about his coaching abilities?  

The whole thing about Texas being the place to be really chaps my ***.

While I think Muschamp has done a good job at Auburn, I am not naive enough to believe he is solely the reason that we have a good defense. All the coaches must recruit good quality players that fit the system and scheme. Secondly, the players must make the plays and make them regularly. It is important to have good instruction, however, if this coach decides to leave, lets wish him well and get someone to replace him and move on. No big deal. I hope he stays,'cause he is good, but its not the end of the world.

,,,,it takes the whole coaching staff and the players, but it also takes a great coordinator to bring it all together and be a good leader.  If it wasn't a factor, then it wouldn't matter to anybody who they had.

My point is, why is Texas suppose to be the greatest place to be.  The big 12 isn't the best or toughest conference.  Sure, they have a great recruiting base, but like I said in my last post, if you can win a championship in the toughest conference, the SEC, then doesn't that say more about your abilities.

Auburn has taken a beating from the media (read that as ESPN) for years and schools like Texas, Oklahoma, Southern Cal, and Ohio St. are the media darlings because they win so many games.  All of these schools play in conferences that allow each school to play weak schedules and this allows them to win games.  This gets them high in the rankings early in the year, which means they have a better shot at the national championship.

Auburn, on the other hand, plays in the toughest conference which means they have a tough schedule every year.  Take 2004 for example, we actually played a pretty tough schedule, except for Citadel.  And we, basically, got stuck with them at the last minute.  Oklahoma got the shot at the National Championship against Southern Ca.  Neither one of those teams played a hard schedule, but yet, they are the media darlings.  And what happened, Oklahoma got toasted.  Auburn may not have won the NC, but they deserved the chance more than Oklahoma.  Oklahoma hasn't won a BCS game in over 4 years.

Now, the media says that Texas is a better place to be a coordinator.  Well, to me, the only reason it would be a better place is because the media has made it that way.  Texas is dry and brown.  Even the orange that Texas wears is dull

Auburn is a great place. It is in the best state in the nation.  

If Muschamp leaves, I know Coach Tubs will find us another great defensive coordinator.  I just hate to loose another coordiantor to a place like Texas.
