If Teague or Pearce knocked on our door, we wouldn't tell them to go away, but I think we'll be happy with what we have if they don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually Asa & Pierce were on a first come first serve basis for the past month. Unless something changes, which is possible, we wouldn't take Pierce right now if he wanted in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get behind a KJ style runner just like any good fan should, but I love for AU that have a Kam style bruiser in the backfield. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In watching his videos, and listening to his game, and the homer announcers (timeout! If any of you are from Decatur ,or have any connection to Austin High School, please,please contact somebody and tell those squawking myna birds that announce their games to stop with the incessant jabbering. I have never heard such a badly called game in my life. It seemed that they were way more important than the actual game. High school announcers are not pros and most do their best, but these clowns are the worst in the history of high school radio broadcasters. Utterly ridiculous. Now back to regular programming) I really think that we have a budding Emmitt Smith. I saw a little Carnell in him,also. Very impressed with Asa Edited August 26, 2017 by doverstutts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His upper body strength is fine for his age. He just chooses to juke more often than run through tackles right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedaler 1,001 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Good vision, natural runner. Still has plenty of room for improvement, like shifting the ball to his outside arm when he's running down the sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburn4ever 1,266 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 With Auburn's season less then a week away, I wonder if we'll get anymore commitments. I'm we'll get some during the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
