One of the most extended off season in Bryan Harsin's professional career is finally over as his Auburn Tigers prepare to play their first game of the season. Coach Harsin, his staff, and his family have been through a brutal off season where total strangers have questioned his personal and professional ethics. He's like that Elton John song, 'still standing.'

The former Boise State coach will begin the season without the person who hired him. As we predicted, Auburn Athletic Director Allen Greene has left the program. Mr. Greene decided to hire Coach Harsin away from Boise State two years ago. He proclaimed at the time that he was the decision maker and not the usual suspects of crony boosters who've hired and fired coaches in the past.
