al.com did a poll, no way to tell which fanbase says what from it, so I thought I'd pose the question here and see what each fanbase thought of it.

Yes. He is a proven assistant coach with a successful track record. 34.99% (3,279 votes)


No. Auburn needs an established head coach. 44.26% (4,147 votes)


No. Auburn shouldn't hire a coach from its biggest rival. 20.75% (1,944 votes)


Total Votes: 9,370

Yes. If Patterson, Peterson, Fisher and Strong declined to interview or accept the job.

If it pisses off the Bama fan base, yes.

tranlation: we're all too immature to have a discussion, so we'll throw out middle school insults.

I think he saw "Auburn" and "hire, and his feeble mind automatically saw "Petrino".

You could say the same thing about Patterson if the Texas job were to ever open up. If Malzahn were to light it up, you could say the same thing about him and Texas or Oklahoma.

We've spoken to a lot of sources close to both Bama and the Auburn search over the past 24 hours.
As of last night, we indicated that we did not believe that Smart would be the next head coach at Auburn. As of 11:00 CST this mid morning we continue to hear from reliable sources that Smart is NOT headed to Auburn.
These situations are fluid and can change on a dime, but "our sources" confirm with what we are also hearing from Phillip Marshall and Ron Sanders at AuburnUndercover that Smart to Auburn is unlikely to happen at this time. In addition, Marshall posted today that he expects Auburn to name its head coach on Wednesday.
Remember, the world of college coach searches is all about positioning and semantics. There's no way Auburn "officially" offers Smart unless they are a 100% certainty that he accepts. So be prepared for several stories stating that Smart was not offered, and conversely, that he was verbally offered but said no. There's not really a need for us to get in the middle of did Auburn offer Smart or not at this time. We will have some commentary on how all of this played out at a later date.
We will continue to update you on the situation as we get more news.
Again, as of right now we would highly surprised if Smart is Auburn's next coach -- much more surprised than we would have been this time yesterday.
More later.
