From Jason Caldwell (247)

Backing up what I wrote a few days ago, as of this morning Auburn doesn't plan on making a formal job offer today. It hasn't happened to this point and it sounds like Auburn wants to wait until the Iron Bowl is complete before moving forward. It has everything to do with showing respect to Cadillac Williams, the coaches and players, and nothing to do with waiting on a certain coach or coaches. This is all about the timing and allowing everyone to focus on the game. With that being said, I don't expect any news from the Auburn front today.

Lol. Sounds like AU struck out on their first 3 options and are trying to save face. Hahaha

Lane said no and we are starting over.

The calls for Caddy could grow loud, if AU looks good against bama.

No, it sounds like web pages wanting to drive clicks put out stories with no basis in fact.

I love chaos so it would be hilarious if they offer Lane tomorrow and plan this big ceremony for Sunday and then Cadillac pulls a massive upset

If Auburn hires Cadillac they absolutely struck out on everybody else

You do realise that it isn't over until he signs that extension?

If Jeff Grimes turns them down then the only option is Williams.

Ole Miss rivals report saying the same thing - i.e. Auburn isn't making an official offer to anyone until the game is over.

If Cadillac makes a showing against Saban tomorrow, you guys are in a tough spot.

Just be wary if he brings a binder to the formal interview.

nah, sometimes Athletic Directors let their egos interfere with rational thoughts and won't swallow their pride and negotiate. Other times they feel desperate and make a stupid, fast decision just to be done. Other times, they let the loudest voices (sometimes boosters, sometimes players) make the decision for them.

Sometimes you have Joe Alleva and he does all of the above.

You always see the words “formal” or “official” preceding the words “job offer”.

I’d be surprised if AU hasnt made an informal offer to Lane (or someone else) at this point.

Would be foolish to hire Caddy. I’ve seen nothing that indicates he can build a championship program.

This is funny since I read on your boards y’all were announcing a championship coach would be announced today.

Wait what? I am on multiple Auburn boards, and I’ve never seen anyone say that.

Speculation it COULD be today, but nothing definitive like that. Most have said Sunday this entire time.
