WarEagle1983 2,185 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I don't place it all on Gus/Rhett. No way anyone thought JJ wouldn't be at least a solid QB. 2 minutes ago, auburn4ever said: Yes. JF3 and as 3rd string and Sean most likely will be 2nd string. JF3 days at QB are done. Unless JS or SW or MW can't physically walk or pick up a football, JF3 will only be taking snaps on a trick play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh...wrong. One of them can throw it deep but his accuracy suffers (Sean). Stidham and Willis clearly have strong enough arms to throw the deep passes and JS clearly does so with accuracy. Willis made a nice deep throw but has too small a sample size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But getting Gatewood, who simply is not getting the reps at QB over the time he committed, still leaves me with another QB who is going to need serious developing into a complete QB, especially in the passing game.. To me..he is still an unknown quantity, regardless of his ranking.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehighfan 1,239 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 With his lack of playing time in the A-Day game it's no surprise WB is leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you're right, it's very much wait and see with him now. 2 minutes ago, AU64 said: True as I understand it...which makes me wonder why Gus was not recruiting the QBs...no matter what we read in the paper, it was his offense...not Lashlee's But sure glad closed the deal on Stidham... They both stuck- Gatewood's been recruiting for us hard enough that I don't see him shopping- so I won't question Gus's involvement with their respective recruitments.

abw0004 10,108 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Off the point, but I feel that since no one has had anything to argue about on this forum the last few months, the rage was getting built up. Especially the Gus-haters. And it did not help their case that Gus has done all the right things in the offseason in who he has hired, and how he has handled everything. Now that there is something to potentially point at Gus, the floodgates have broken open. I have not seen arguments like this since November of last year. Not bashing anyone, or critiquing. Just found it a little humorous since I am having a slow day at work (for once). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't take a side on what is discussed (already stated my opinion earlier). Just found the funny side in all of this. I can't get too worked up with 4 months to go. It is like my problem of watching 2017 Auburn hype videos. I get all worked up and ready to see Auburn ball, and then I realize I have to wait 4 months.

No. In terms of internal drive and passion to do what it takes to learn the offense? I guess? Excellent points @TitanTiger about the evals as well as our current 3 deep. Woody's departure was a surprise to no one at all. Best of luck to him moving forward. We were already planning on taking 2 QBs in the 2018 class, I guess this "news" makes it easier/better for everyone. (Joey, recruiters, and recruits as far as looking at our depth chart).

Last season didn't go as expected but there are numerous programs all over the country that would have accepted his commitment when we did. Or at least that's my understanding.

That's a good thing...but I'm wondering if he is being considered our QB "get" this year....before he's even established himself in HS....or do we mess around with him a couple seasons and then try to find another place where his athleticism is beneficial ? Just thinking that if Stidham or While have a big year and Lindesy's offense is "showy" might that attract other QB possibilities from guys who have established their QB bonifides to a greater extent ?.

I hope Stidham doesn't hurt at all this. Cause he does, we're in trouble. I thought Woody would be a strong backup for Jarrett. I'm not so sure woody was gonna make a good back up to the back ups..
