The Fall of Auburn

The women's team swims lights out at conferance and craters at NCAA's now the men are in a battle to finish 4th... No one ever revealed the entire story behind Marsh's departure...interesting that Quick was brought in mid-season...takes the rains...and now we see the results...so...one more year or is he gone after this season?

  • Are you talking out your backside here or do you actually have some evidence that this position is a huge setback for Coach Marsh? His wife was the one who told me about the move they were making long before it happened. The way she told it, it was a great opportunity. What is your opinion based on? It is my opinion that when a world class coach who leaves one of the most elite college programs of all time the year before he may very well have set a new record (6) of consecutive championships it raises red flags... WTH? Can you back this up with ANY evidence? There was nothing to "disclose" when Marsh left as far as I know. He was offered the USOC position and took it. If you are going to besmirch Marsh's reputation you'd better have some evidence because all I've ever known/heard about him has been reputable. I was not first person to any of the things that I brought up...and I should have been clearer in my post which I have edited along with adding a question mark to the threads title to make sure no one else confuses discussion of things we have heard/read and have concerns about vs. making any accusations. I will say that I know Auburn swimmers, I know a fair amount of coaches in the college ranks and the questions I brought up have been spoken of by a number of people whom I respect and trust and in my opinion were worthy of bringing to a swimming forum to see what others may have heard or what they think as well. clear enough?
