Another big hire for Gus.

    Meh. It all starts at the top. Good assistants aren't the key. Sal Sunseri is legit but had terrible results at UT due to the man in charge.

    AU needs a hard nosed HC to change the lazy culture in the program.

    Didn't Gene have the best staff in the country? BVG was supposed to have a "nasty" defense and 9 months ago Loeffler could run any style of offense better than anyone else.

    At best, with the players there now, this is a 3 year project.

    True however his shit is weak at best. Yours is at least funny. Also you didn't run and hide like he and aubonner did when shit hit the fan.

    I guess you could call it hiding. When your team sucks, you find better things to do than be reminded of it on a football message board. Thanks for the shout out though.

    There was only a couple of them and most of them spent too much time hanging with Troop I guess.

    Vandy has better talent. Ole Miss has better talent. Plus, Ole Miss is recruiting better as well now.

    They went after the Arkansas St HC a year too late, IMO.

    Stop it. You're acting like a gump retard. The Gus hire was in place for a year. It was set up by him getting some HC experience.

    You sound extremely butt hurt/worried about something

    Right!

    Now you have the "insider" information, huh?

    If that is true, then I guess the yellerwood boys are still running things down there. Makes me smile!

    I look forward to your next meltdown in a few years.

    Doesn't really matter, IMO how many they keep or get rid of. The talent level there is at Kentucky levels at the moment. Vandy and Ole Miss have better talent right now, especially after this Ole Miss recruiting class.

    Might as well just start over.

    Geesh, you really are an idiot.

    Have you really seen the players you guys have?

    No one at QB. Average at RB. Bright spot at WR is leaving. TE and best player on the team is gone. Best player on defense by a good margin (Lemonier) is leaving. LBers are either tiny or can't run. Still one of the worst secondaries in the SEC.

    The only bright spot is that there is some good young talent in the OL.

    Honest question: Which team besides Kentucky do you feel that Auburn has more talent than?

    Before this season, I thought Auburn would win 8 games. I was one of the few non-Auburn fans that thought so. After seeing absolutely no progression on defense and maybe regression under a great DC, I just don't think it is there. The offensive side of the ball was even worse and it wasn't just coaching, IMO. The skill positions are awful right now.

  • So if everything all the bama guys are saying is right then you guys have nothing to worry about right? We will never hire a good coach nor have a talented team right? So why so much flaming? Doesn't make senseshrug

    Our problems were not with talent, although we do have a few glaring holes. We were the most unmotivated, undisciplined, poorest coached team in the SEC.

    I missed the announcement where Lemonier said he was leaving, though he should if he gets a first round grade.

    You have absolutely no clue about AU's team.

    I haven't noticed much flaming. I have seen people saying that Malzahn was a stupid hire and Auburn fans not believing it. Reminds me of people saying Chizik was going to be fired a year ago after this season and people in denial.

    The newest hire from UGA was the DL coach on a defense that has 6 players from that line heading to the NFL this year and next, that finished 79th in the nation against the run and gave up 350 yards rushing in the SECCG.

    We have heard so much about cleaning house and getting rid of the Pat Dye influence from Auburn fans, but the HC is a member of the previous staff under Chizik and the new DL coach is one of Dye's boys and we all know his involvement in the Wayne Hall days there.

    I wouldn't confuse laughter with worry. Not sure what the point of being worried would be.

    I have no clue? How's this?

    No reason to mention the QB position. Just pray that JJ can take over day one, IMO.

    RB- Tre Mason is an average to decent talent that could really use a QB so that he is not the entire offense. After him, you have Blakely who couldn't hold on to the ball to stay on the field playing in one of the worst offenses in the country. Then there is a Bama scrub in Grant that was shown the door in Tuscaloosa that wasn't even good enough to get playing time in one of the worst offenses in the country.

    WR- The best returning WR better be Coates because the others are just awful. Reed and Bray play scared most of the time and must have been weightroom partners with McCaleb up until now. Uzomah has potential, but I am not sure what defense is going to be scared of he and Coates as starting WRs.

    TE- I would assume Prosch will move to that position, but he is pretty slow and not much of a threat to do anything other than block.

    OL- Wasterman, Dismukes, and Robinson are guys you can build a solid line around, although I do feel Dismukes took a step back this season after a promising freshman year. Probably was just given too much responsibility too quickly, IMO. If Shon Coleman is able to return to form, it would help as well, but I will wait to see that when it happens. Really cheering for that kid.

    DL- Dee Ford had huge expectations coming into the season and didn't produce much. With all the double teams Lemonier faced, he should have made an impact. Angelo Blackson is a good DT and Gabe Wright could be. Pass rush could be even more non-existant next year than it was this year though.

    LB- Daren Bates did the best he could for Auburn and he is gone. I am sure most wish Jake Holland would enter the Canadian League draft this season instead of returning, but he is back to anchor the LBers.......and by anchor, I mean he runs like he is tied to one. I guess the best part about moving to a 4-2-5 is that only 2 LBers are on the field at one time. Does Foster re-commit and take one of those spots. Even if he does, I am not sure he is ready to be the captain on the field that he would need to be, although the talent can be there. If he is at Auburn, he along with Cassanova McKinzy could give Auburn at least 2 LBers actually worth of playing in the SEC. We are still patiently awaiting Kris Frost to actually do something in college. I am beginning to wonder.

    DB- Where to begin? At the beginning of the year there were complaints that the best players weren't playing. Then the guys people were screaming for got to play and it might have actually gotten worse. Jermaine Whitehead and Demetruce McNeal seem to be battling for the "Neiko Thorpe 30 yards down field tackling" award. Is it even possible for a team to only get 2 INTs in a season? Over the last 6 years, 4 teams have accomplished that feat: USF, Akron, EMU, and now Auburn. 65.6% completion % against Auburn. Auburn's pass effeciency defense was higher that Tyler Wilson's, who is being predicted to be a 1st round draft pick in the NFL.
