Auburn Gets a BIG WIN at Home vs. Ole Miss

Auburn hosted the #15 Ole Miss Rebels in a game that they really shouldn't have had a chance in. Just when everyone was doubting them, they pull off the upset. They won 80-77 at home. That made Auburn's 2nd consecutive SEC west victory. They have been playing pretty well lately. They only have 6 or 7 scholarship players on the team. If they can play like this all year, it could be a pretty good year for them. That's all for now...................WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Defensive Coordinator will be................

Paul Rhodes, defensive coordinator at Pitt has agreed to become the defensive coordinator at Auburn. It hasn't been officially announced yet. He will probably be formaly announced as the coordinator either later today or tommorrow. He will also be definsive backs coach. He has a pretty good reputation for coaching that position. In the past five NFL drafts, he has had four defensive backs taken in the first round. In this past season, Pitt's defense was ranked fifth nationally despite their 5-7 record. I am hoping he can bring that same thing to Auburn. All we can do is wait and see. That's all for now................WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

News on Defensive Coordinator

Many believed that Tommy Tuberville would name the coordinator by the end of this week. With one more day of the week left, there is still no DC. Hopefully, that want effect the 15 recruits that are visiting Auburn this weekend, 6 of which have allready commited to the Tigers. Some believe that Tubs allready has his coordinator and will announce it to the recruits. There hasn't been many names thrown out there, but here are a couple: former Duke head coach Ted Roof, and Clemson defensive coordinator Jeff Koenning. I got these names off of a blog written by Phillip Marshall, he is one of the closest reporters to CTT, and is usually pretty close on what he says. That's about it for now, WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Coordinator by the End of the Week?

Since Muschamp (Auburn Ex-Def. Coordinator) is gone, Who will be the next great Auburn Coordinator? Well, we aren't sure yet, but it could be soon. Tuberville says hopefully by the end of the week. Let's just hope that is the case, cause one of the biggest recruiting weekends is this coming up weekend. Tubs is currently in Anaheim, California, for the Amercan Football Coaches Association, and should be back Wednesday. He hasn't said much, but he did say that he has a list of about 4 to 5 coaches. I don't know who they are, but I'm anxious to find out who will be the guy. That's all for today. WAR EAGLE!!!

Muschamp on his way out?

Looks like a strong possibility. Don't have time for a long blog about it but I will be truly disappointed. If it was for a head coaching job- I'd wish him all the best but to goto Texas for the same position would be disappointing. Got to run. Peace- Daniel
