WarEagle1983 2,185 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I saw it live and had a good chuckle. Put him on special teams. First man down to make the tackle. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarTiger 3,901 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Go back and watch last years game vs. uat. You'll see the ball boy do the same thing on the game tying TD late in the game to Coates. He busts his arse after crossing the goal line. This isn't an unusual thing.

mustache eagle 2,398 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I was hoping others noticed this kid. I had to rewind it and watch again. I laughed my ass off. That kid was smoking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagle84 0 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Coach Chizik just showed this during half of TN game. did you catch his four playoff teams opinion? Probably trying hard not to be perceived as too much of an Auburn homer. He did have 2 SEC teams in, with Auburn and Mich State as his first 2 out, so he definitely knows his audience is SEC-centric.

I didn't catch it. Who were his 4 playoff teams? 1. F$U 2. Choklahoma 3. UGA 4. bamma but said that comment was made that he struggled at #4 because AU and Mich St could also be that #4 and that this was just the first week so it could change.

I did see and agree w/the above. He was also quick to say he could see Auburn in there. I know he's picked Bama based on Bryant Denny. Granted the crowd was ruthless the time he coached the iron bowl there (all the cam newton hate) but we've generally played well there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman5th 0 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 That is, he's picked Bama to win Iron Bowl, which likely puts AU out of picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburn4ever 1,266 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Someone needs to find out who this guy is and then go tell coaches Malzahn and Craig. We looks like he'd be a good WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threedog79 0 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I heard he runs good routes and is considered a "possession" ball boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,419 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Chiz likely based his projection of the Turds @ #4 based on their INCREDIBLY WEAK schedule alone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBAU83 212 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I just hope the ball boy doesn't cause us penalty by intereferring with the official on the sideline. He just needs to get the ball to the official so they can spot it to keep the HUNH going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just needs to get the ball to the official so they can spot it to keep the HUNH going. if someone stuck a foot out and tripped him that would really make the rounds. On purpose or accident. can you imagine stopping the game to take the ball boy out on a stretcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFDTiger80 790 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 He really looks more like a ball man than a ball boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Eye 7 2,535 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Probably the AU cheerleaders can clock a 4.4 forty. That's why they call it "AUBURN FAST". lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagle84 0 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I wonder why he does that? In part to be able to give the ball to the ref as quickly as possible to spot for the next play (they don't know for sure he will score), and partly just because it's fun. The War Eagle Reader has a nice article on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bg5 536 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I guess it's an age thing. At my age I only run 50 yards as fast as I can if a bear is chasing me. It's great whatever the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
