Malzahn in 2017 is close. Though, I’d say it was a lot safer before he lost the SEC title game to Georgia. They still gave him 49 million to not go to Arkansas. That worked out brilliantly.

When I was in the Marines the “go-to” move that was passed down to me by a very beloved Corporal when I was just a lowly LCPL was to carry a clipboard and walk with purpose. It got me out of a lot of saluting and more working parties than a light-duty chit.

I’m simply joking about the possibility that Harsin and the cheerleader planned this whole episode so they could be rich and run off to a tropical paradise together.
Maybe Auburn needs to hire Miles Massey to dig up Harsin’s “Baron Von Espy” who led him to Auburn, i.e., the silly man:

How true do you think it is that Harsin was about to be fired at Arkansas State when Boise State hired him?
LikeLike
Eh… I’m extremely skeptical of that. I read that rumor for the first time today. I read a post by an anonymous guy quoting another anonymous guy who swore he was standing with the athletic director when the AD said he was going to fire Harsin after the AD allegedly had to go get him from home after he no-showed a press conference? My problem with that is, then why wouldn’t he have gone ahead and fired him instead of letting him go and do the press conference? Seems fishy. They were 7-5 that year and earned a share of the Sun Belt championship – maybe the people in Jonesboro remember him as being a jerk and they seem to get much more salty there than other G5 teams when a coach leaves them for a better gig, but with zero inside knowledge I’d have to say they were going to be willing to put up with his being a jerk for another year if it meant stability, perhaps another conference title and bowl, etc. Ironically, 2 of the 5 losses Arkansas State took that year were to SEC teams including a pasting by Auburn.
