I didn't really know the extent of the injury; I was at the AU game, so I didn't see the Bama game at all. Didn't even bother with highlights when I found out the score.

Yeah, think he has an acl injury. The problem I had was people were banking on him going pro which is extremely rare if not unprecedented. They looked at it like college basketball not college football and that's not smart. He'll be back and no way he's losing his job to Justin Fields. I'll put money on that and everyone will lose. Now if he comes to Auburn, he will have a better shot but he doesn't win the starting job. Look at me playing the ridiculous game. It's fun.

I don't see him having any better chance to start over Stidham than he would to start over Francios. It's basically the same situation.

Yep. exactly. Unless he's the second coming of Drew Henson, no way he's starting over an upper classman, even if they're a sophomore and future nfler. Lol.

If I were a top rated QB I would be real leary of signing with FSU, mainly because of their OL.  Francois spent a lot of time last year, not to mention more than a few times last Saturday picking himself up off the ground. And oh yeah, he's now out for the year.

You really think JF has a better shot at starting of Stidham?

He tore his patellar tendon. Likely a more difficult recovery/rehab than an ACL injury. Don't think it's a slam dunk that he'll be the same QB he was...

Great start to the season for Bo Nix and Pinson Valley. Minor was the defending area champs for that region. They got another big game next week at Clay-Chalkville.

Thanks for the update, saved me from looking all over the internet.

Nope. 

But ask me again IF he commits. We're a long way from having that debate as a fanbase. imo

Substitute "Auburn" and "Stidham" in above post and still applies, lol

You are so right, Carl.

[milehighfan 1,240]

Regarding tonight's offensive showing, different year, same sh**.

[AUpreacherman22 3,885]

So, assuming Fields goes to LSU or uga ?,

How would the Nix clan feel about a coaching change at AU after this season?

[GwillMac6 20,666]

Probaly would welcome it since gus is allergic to knowing how to operate a good passing offense.

[AUpreacherman22 3,885]

I'm not giving up just yet, we still have time to turn this thing around. Gus seemed to have made some good moves in the offseason to be the kind of coach we all hoped he would become. But so far it looks like the same old mess, round 3. 

So in that case, I agree. I think a coaching change would be welcomed by any QB recruit and their families.

In all seriousness I remember 23 or someone connected saying AS LONG AS we looked good on offense this year then he was basically a lock.. well..................

[AUpreacherman22 3,885]

Yeah, so basically there is no such thing as a lock right now. 

Good times!

Well, Pat knows as well as anyone the nature of the coaching business so I highly doubt a change would be a nail in the coffin. What would matter I suppose is who takes over and what kind of O would be implemented.

Fractured ankle for Bo Nix. 

Erik Harris‏ @jeharris2  23h23 hours ago

I hate to hear this news out of Pinson Valley today: QB Bo Nix has fractured his ankle.

[Beaker 2,457]

Injury aside, I have to think after the past two weeks, we should be looking like the passing game a prospect like Nix would be attracted to.  Am I correct?  

I heard this morning Stidham is leading the SEC in completion % (over 70%)  and thrown 580 yds the past two games.   Seems like we gaining some momentum.

[au_bsci_04 407]

Trending upward for sure. Need to continue it vs. stiffer SEC foes to show its real. 

[aujeff11 6,243]

How much of Dual Threat QB is Nix? We need somebody that can carry the ball at the goal line if needed. Tired of relying on a wildcat...
