One was surprised. The other? Not too much.
A day after Auburn fired Guz Malhan, his predecessor – Jean Sisick – was surprised. Paul is not Finebomb.
“I was very surprised,” Sisik told SEC This Morning on Monday. “They finished 6-4. It’s solid, it’s not big.”
Meanwhile, ESPN analyst FineBoom on “The Roundtable” weekly appearances on WJOX 94.5 in Birmingham, Alabama – said it was time to move on.
“At some point, if the program gets stuck, it’s useless to proceed, regardless of the purchase, regardless of the actual record,” Finebam said. “He doesn’t have a lot of support. If anything, from the fan base, the trustees have been trying to fire him for years, and anyone who openly criticizes him, not just publicly but personally, decides three years ago to retain him. In the end, you’re going to try to understand better.” If so, keep going. ”
Sisik, who coached the LTTE from 2009-2012, cited some reasons for Malhan’s dismissal. No. 1 is his 8-17 record against rivals.
“Factor number 2 is the loss of South Carolina,” Sisick said south of Town on Saturday. “The two biggest losses for Casso this year were the South Carolina loss, and again you’m obviously seeing what happened with Will (Mashchamp) and how they ended up, how the season came out, and then another (Texas) A&M game, they have firm control over the game There were, and they outscored at the end of the game, and I believe it was 17-0 last quarter, ”Sisik said. You can say what you want, but if they make you look like Alabama, it’s not a good look. ”
Sisick said fans would like Hugh Frees to replace Malhan.
“The guy has proven himself in this league,” Sisick said. “If you do not want to win on the field, it’s me, the Auburn people, who constantly compare themselves to what’s going on across the state.
Meanwhile, Fineboam said he will remember Malhan well.
“When Guzmஹlhan was alone, sometimes in public, Monotone, I think he would be remembered as a good winning coach. Auburn had a national championship, while Nick was able to win the House while the others never embarrassed the plan to separate him from others who had been in that position for many years,” he said. He said.
