Is there anyone that we are concerned about Cohen trying to take with him to Auburn?
Bracky.

Leach would be the only one, and as far as I'm concerned that would make me almost as happy as them taking Cohen.

They can't take Lemonis and I don't think Butch is on the hot seat?
Not going to want Jans unless and until he shows something and Pearl leaves for whatever reason. I don't think Cohen will still have a job at that point.
Leach I don't think would be willing to put up with the booster BS at Auburn and I would think Cohen would be smart enough to know he'd get fired before Leach had his system installed and working well.
No clue about any admin people.

Not meant to be a dig, but there’s no one that would be a huge loss. Some good up-and-comers in the group, but there’s a lot of young, hungry folks available for athletic dept jobs.

Not really worried about that. Jans is not pearl. Boosters would flip on him if he hired leach. Soccer, volleyball, softball i don't know and don't really care. Lemonis isn't replacing butch at auburn. So, I don't see anyone being poached. If leach gets hired away I'm okay with that too, but I don't see it

If Leach is the best Cohen can come up with he might have the shortest tenure in history.

Armstrong was the assistant coach for Auburn before Cohen hired him for our soccer program. The current Auburn coach has been there for 24 years, so if she decided to retire or take another position in the athletic department, I could see Cohen going after him down the road. It's soccer and I know not many people give a second thought of it but that would be the only coach I would think could get poached in the future.

We likely only keep a couple people regardless if they go with him or somewhere else. The dept. is in need of a rework and the new AD will bring their people for the most part.

Leach is a great coach and recruiting very well.
I’m not talking bad about Leach here. I’m talking about the expectations of Auburn fans and boosters. Leach would be plan D or worse. If the coaching search goes that bad it won’t be pretty.

Freeze is headed to the Plains.

Then we’d just hire Nick Zimmerman

Think you'll see some familiar names hired (one in particular), not exactly current employees of the department but names you'll know
