I think a lot of people forget (me included, until I watch highlights) how good he was in 2013.


I will never. To me he's the best rb of my lifetime (I was 9 in 04). And it's not even that close fr. Kerryon and Tank would be next but theres a decent sized gap between.

And if people don't have him in their 2010s mt rAUshmore I'd be skeptical if they even have a brain at all.
I been wanting to go to the space and rocket center. Might have to now just to go give the man a handshake.
One sack allowed in 1500 snaps will definitely play.

Gotta think he's a halfway decent run blocker too.
He's a big deal. Played in every game as a freshman in a blake baker defense. Lsu fans are sad to lose him too.

Even if he's only here a year it's worth it.
Your qb left and your portal class is one of the worst in the conference and your no ball head coach is bringing back the entire shitty arse BBQ gang next year.

Your "down year" is probably gonna be the last time you see the playoffs for awhile.

At least we have some hope for now.

I'm staying confident until we hear word of byrum brown on another campus.

But it is arse backwards no doubt.

Enough to make a beaten dog flinch.
Komrade looks like he's been on the frontlines of Ukraine. :lol:
Tanks a legend to me. He was closer to Kerryon and Tre than he was Artis-Payne. He stuck out like a sore thumb behind that bullshite o-line. He was the only reason we moved the ball at times.
Good player. Does everything he can to deny the receiver the ball. Even if it means a 10 or 15 yard penalty.

Has a criminal record to boot so you know he's got that dawg in him.
I cant imagine ther3s many better situations for him then UNLV with Mullen. If Dan cant straighten him out, it was never meant to be.

Uh, yes, the Gus system clearly became an unmovable object at least for '18, '19, and '20.



Good grief. How many games did we win those years?

2017 we were right there for the SEC Championship, so just based on winning we should have been able to recruit better.


2 things.

1. We lost the SEC championship and the bowl game, finished with 4 losses, and the rest of the country was watching Bama and UGA still play for the natty a month later.

And 2. It takes a lot more than losing one conference championship to sustain any sort of momentum, and frankly build any sort of momentum. The pro potential thing was a tree in the forest of issues.

I remember all of our recruiting battles dude.

We got 5 stars at DE and DT. High 4 stars at CB and LB very regularly.

We could go into Georgia and pull Derrick Brown but not Trey Hill? There is a reason for that.


Sounds like certain position coaches were better recruiters/developers than others to me. All we gotta do is get the guys to the league. Then the kids will believe they'll do the rest when they get there. And the veer and shoot has been putting plenty of guys in the NFL at UT as meta already stated.
quote:

He had limited success, not because of wins and losses but because he put out Greg Robinson and Sammie Coates.


This is such a weird way to rewrite history. This has already been discussed at length for years.

Do you truly believe if he was competing for SEC championships every year we wouldn't have seen an uptick in wr and o line recruiting? Ill concede we would lose a dude or two bc the negative recruiting angle is real but to act like it's this unmovable obstacle is ridiculous. Hell Bama has EJ Crowell committed this year after he sat there and watched bama rbs go 5 for 17 all year.

I am highly curious as to how Golesh does against SEC defenses as HC


Set records in 21 and broke them again in 22. And UT lost about 10 ppg when Golesh left. That's the biggest part of why the hire is so exciting to me.
quote:

However, I can take comfort in the fact that I have never relied on another team's losses to enjoy a season.

If THAT is what it means to be an Auburn fan then I thank all the powers in the universe that I was never afflicted with THAT curse.


We are so fricking back
This is Uzomah erasure.

Also who??? How far back did you go for that name? :lol:

But if your players get knocked for it then it becomes detrimental. After going through the Gus years we all know how knocks can stack up. We couldnt recruit OL and we couldn't recruit elite WRs to perform to the fullest of their abilities.


If Gus would've fielded a consistently competitive offense and won more than 8 games a year he would've recruited better. You know this.
