I think looking back at it now it was for the best. I don't believe he's good fit at this hight pressure level. I do think he was put into an
impossible situation. I've given the keys to the offense and the support, I think he would have had some success but not lasting.

This is why I am glad he is gone... | ||

This comment alone is why I am glad he is gone. "I couldn't care less about proving anything to the Auburn community"
He only does things for himself. I can see why the other coaches could not work with him... the guy is a classless azz hat. |

We'll see how he performs in Tenn. His credentials at that level are fairly impressive.

His behavior and statements relating to Auburn since the time of his firing have proved to me that he was not worthy. Good riddance.

I only heard about 10 minutes of the entire interview with slimebaume,at which time there seemed to be no hostility. I thought,the dude sure is actin nice after what just happened.He may have been under some sorta gag order at that time though.Not sure

I'm very glad he's gone. I was never excited about the hire in the first place. How intelligent is he? How much integrity does he have? I don't
know. I do know that he brought in a qb with a bad shoulder (Chris Todd) and insisted that he was going to be the starting qb. At this point we're all
being told that the real problem was Tubby and the other assistants. I'm not so sure about that. The fact that Otis is badmouthing them while they have
refused to do that to him tells me a lot. I began to have concerns with the explosive offensive performance against Mississippi State. I sat through the
debacle against Tennessee. During that game it was painfully obvious that Todd simply could not put anything on the ball. After the game the press asks Otis
"why did you put Burns in?" His answer "because the head man told me to." At that point I knew that he had to go. Given what I've seen
out of Otis Franklin I simply do not buy into this idea that it was all simply because he and his system were never accepted. The only blame I would lay at the
feet of Tubbs would be hiring this idiot in the first place. The best thing about Otis is that he is gone. He is gone back to the Sunbelt Conference where he
belongs. There, does that tell you how I feel?

I guess I put a lot of the blame on the assistants, but I do think his leaving was the best at the time. It doesn't really matter either way anyway. I imagine he would have been gone with a coaching change anyway. Yes, I do think the coaching change would have happened with him there or not. If you are asking that question, then there's your answer. I do wish the best for him and hopefully he can find his place soon.
