You Can’t Coach ’Em Up Anymore: Auburn’s Portal Gamble Backfired | Auburn Football Podcast

Five-stars won’t save your program. We’ve watched that formula fail at Texas A&M and at LSU under Brian Kelly. So what does Auburn need to show us before the season ends? We break down why the offensive line should have been the priority, and how losing the spring portal window meant evaluations had to be right the first time. We also look at how Kentucky skipped the guesswork and spent big in the trenches. Auburn thought it could out-evaluate the system, but this isn’t a “coach ’em up” league anymore, and coaches don’t get four or five years. We also cover why any November loss outside Alabama is inexplicable, what splitting Ole Miss and Bama would mean, and the real problem: nobody knows which Auburn team shows up on Saturday.
