Show Notes
Justin and Dan discuss the end of the Hugh Freeze era in Auburn’s 10-3 home loss to Kentucky and what’s next — both with the football program and the basketball team that officially starts this week. Topics for this show include:
* where it all went wrong for Hugh Freeze at Auburn in a high-stakes season
* the most searing indictments of the tenure during the Kentucky game
* the offense somehow getting worse, despite adding more talent
* “we’re close,” asking for patience and other eye-opening quotes from the end
* the common denominator never being the quarterback
* some of the worst stats from the Freeze Era, including a terrible JHS record
* Justin goes through Dan’s categorized early list of coaching candidates
* the Group of Five head coach that makes the most sense as a hire
* the wild card coaches that don’t seem to have any true comparisons
* the thing about DJ Durkin as the interim — and in the permanent job
* a quick ObservFour from Auburn basketball’s 100-71 win over Memphis
* a look at the Bethune Cookman team that will open the season in Neville Arena
* a whole lot more that doesn’t fit into this list
