I understand his HC record is not good. But remember chizik s record was 5-19 and he won a national championship in 2 season. I think steele deserves a chance to see what he can do. Many coaches fail there first time then succeed the 2nd time around.

I guess anything is possible. I wouldn't get my hopes up though because it's very unlikely.

Considering how terrible I think he’d be, it’d be hard for him to do worse. So, maybe?

If he lands a gus/joe brady as oc and cam/burrow as QB sure he could be good

Sure he could be.
But you should get him at low rate/price to prove it.

He'd be an 8-5 snooze fest, just like Gus. But that is only because Auburn can cruise control to 8 wins. Even with subpar coaching.

So good we are adding the nickname “Steelers” to the standard Tigers and Plainsmen.

Battlecry has been War Eagle since 1892.

Now we will say “War Eagle” and “Men of Steele”

Chizik had one of the best CFB QBs ever on that team. Look at what he did when he didn’t have Cam.

I guess it is possible, but the odds are better that he would be a failure.

Not to mention the giant buyout that was just paid to Gus. If the administration is willing to write that check, you don't follow up by hiring Steele. You make a big splash or get a young up and comer like a Napier or Chadwell and roll the dice there.

Steele is a good guy and a good defensive football coach. He has a large network of football people that he's developed over his long career. But there's a reason he hasn't been named a HC at a big time school after all of these years and all of his stops at other big time programs. You think that now, when he is about to turn 63 is the time for him to catch that big break and step into the HC role at Auburn? I'm sure rival fanbases would love it and laugh their asses off at it. And they would be justified in doing so because Auburn has given up on trying to win the second they hire him as head coach.

Until he has a mental breakdown like in the Orange bowl when he was at Clemson.
