aucanucktiger 1,791 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Patrick Young, Auburn Man. FB on the scout team for 3 (THREE) years then finally in a position to help the game day squad and he suffers a serious knee injury? That's flat brutal.

boisnumber1 2,818 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I appreciate Gus more every time I see one of his press conferences. It's so refreshing to see a coach who has integrity and treats others with high regard and respect. It says a lot about him, and in this day and age it's not something to take for granted. He is an Auburn man and represents Auburn well...in addition to being a football genius. I especially appreciate the stark contrast it presents to what goes on the other side of the state.

I think he praises in public and reprimands in private. I don't know if I've ever heard him say anything negative about a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
