Auburn ultimately responsibility should be to educate these young men so they can be productive adults. PERIOD. Like that one recruit said, you have numerous tutors at your disposal with resources.. so there should be no excuse to leave without a degree, even if you don't make it professionally.

Also, people kind of shrug about the whole relatable thing in terms of SES and demographics, but it can make a huge difference. It showed the first few minutes of the first episode.

That one texas tech guy had some words of wisdom for D-1 athletes and the things they take for granted: A stipend Tutors at your will Four meals a day Gear ETC Things a lot of athletes take for granted until its gone.

Like featured on the show?

Mods move this thread need be... I just wanted to give your football goons a heads up that season 3 is out now! Pointed out by the trailer, Sadly we won't be seeing EMMC and Coach bud this year. Instead, it will be hosted in Independence, Kansas (Yikes) and follow the Independence Community College Pirates, who have had a horrid football history. One particular interest is their new HC, Jason Brown, a white male straight out of Compton (Yes, race should be noted in this instance). I have it begun watching it, but for my day off I plan on binging because you know? Football. Anywho, just wanted to give notice.

I am not resistant against giving the scholly. Just the false pretense that he might be more than what he is.

I know what he is trying to convey but you can’t compare the two. NS did not have the opportunity to walk into a situation as a first time HC that Gus had the opportunity to do. Yes Gus walked into the tough SEC as a HC. Gus also got the opportunity to a coach a team and a program that he already was familiar with, with a lot of freaking resources. You can’t ask for something better than that. NS started his power 5 HC career at Michigan State, so he had to really have a big learning curve to even get them to compete and be successful. If anything Gus Malzahn story is more complimentary to Dabo Swinney than NS. I don’t anybody has forgotten that trajectory of what NS had prior to Alabama. In fact most people on this board use it as a way to disregard his coaching prowess and now you have people who want to use him as a measuring stick. Which one is it? Lol

Why are you even comparing Gus Malzahn to Saban? Not a fair or realistic comparison.

How we are the most fickle fan base when you got places like UF firing coaches who are wining their divisions? In my lifetime , Auburn hasn’t fired a coach who didn’t have it coming to them.

Personally, I don’t give a crap what Mullen does and that hasn’t been my main point . IMO, without any clear input, I believe Gus is gunning for this guy, who has been absent from football for several years because he does not trust what he has behind JS currently . Furthermore, based on what limited film we have of him playing football at his highest level, IMO, I don’t foresee him being a guy who is going to take you over the top (Doesn’t mean I am saying he sucks or we couldn’t benefit from him) Do I have any insight on this more than anyone else? No. It is my opinion and if you don’t agree with it that is fine. Agree to disagree. Also, if you are talented, it don’t matter what offense you are in. JS is a talented player. He is efficient in both the Baylor offense and Auburn offense. They are pretty distinctive offenses. Not to mention, LSU offered him right? They ran an NFL offense pro set back in 2013, no? So he is good enough to get a scholarship to run LSU pro set offense but not the Florida schools? That doesn’t make sense. I know this, Tim Tebow, a dual threat QB was getting offered by all types of different schools who had many different types of offenses. Either way, we have very different opinions about this guy. I can’t spend all week going back and forth with you about him. So I will let you have the last word as this will be my last post regarding this with you. I guess we will see where truth aligns in the future. one more funny thing, JF3 got an offer to FSU as a QB and he was in the same class as this guy.

I support it too brother! I’ve always said you can’t have too many QBs. I am just bored at the moment haha. Is it football season yet? I have been watching freaking flag football on YouTube that is how bad it is.

That is why I said this Cord Guy gives me a Danny E feel. He looks like he can be a solid Collegiate QB. Nothing more , nothing less. He won’t win you games and he won’t lose you games. My thinking is he will come in more mature than these other guys, which helps at the QB position. He can sit behind JS and learn the offense as well for a year. Now, he is left hander like Tim Tebow and he has maybe some of the athletic ability like Tim Tebow but other than that , does he have the skill set like Tim Tebow? Survey says no. I went back to 2012 and saw he had zero offers from any of the major Florida schools in 2012 and signed with Mississippi State before deciding to play baseball. Now that doesn’t make him a bad player , but it is telling. It is a sign,whether people want to accept it or not. In fact the same two major schools back in 2012 are the same major schools recruiting him now, Auburn and LSU. It’s like when you see a 6’5 225 random black dude playing QB. Most analyst say, he reminds me of Cam Newton. But does he really? Or does he just look like Cam Newton. We will let the performances speak for themselves.

I am not talking about scholarship wise. Like I said if you are an instrumental talent, teams aren’t going to let you walk away just like that. I don’t think Dan Mullen, who particularly has unknowns coming into 2018 at the QB position, is losing sleep over Cord not naming UF in the final top 3.

We literally signed Kiehl Frazier a few years ago. He was USA Today’s national offensive player of the year , UA all American and offers all over the country. Let the kid play a collegiate game first before you throw all of these expectations on him.

Ehh. If you are an instrumental talent , Teams usually find its way to work things out. We will see I guess.
