The gameplan for Clemson was if you believe it pretty much followed to the T. Problem was the gameplan was not working and we stuck with it all game and didn't adjust offensively. Do you think we see CL playbook from now on or Gus's? I'm worried that even if Gus gives CL play calling duties, it will still be from Gus's playbook.

An offensive mineed coach that is as hard headed as Gus is hard to keep out of playcalling. I believe he at least gives it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming CL is actually getting control, how much of his playbook do you think we see tomorrow? Use it as a live practice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarTim 3,456 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 CL would open up and try to give JS a comfort level. Gus will run each and every first down....right up the middle. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aujeff11 6,243 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I was thinking about OP’s prediction Sunday. I appreciate his opinion and that’s the only way to take his posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lutzcammed 469 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I think his prediction was good if it wasn't for our grand schemer.. of all schemers.. screwing the pooch with his brilliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been given a shot since the 2014 National Championship game that he lost us when we were ahead by 18. How many more failed hires does Auburn University have to endure because of Jay Jacobs and the board of trustees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Plainsman 948 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 None of us saw that coming,. I wouldn't call out 23 on this... Atleast he had the guts to put it out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shabby 1,956 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 This is a team that easily could have fulfilled that prediction. That is what is so frustrating about the loss last weekend and our head coach. we have an amazing team. If Lindsey was in charge of both the offensive game plan and the play calling I gurantee we would be facing off with Bama for the West. I've never been more angry about a loss and its because of the potential we have being wasted by coach that has no business being a head coach.

Coaching and play calling has been very, very, very poor. Major gut punch - and it will take a miracle for the team to recover from this one.

And it did for a minute, and the points and the wins piled up, just like last season. And then it changed back. Just like last season. And that switch officially can't ever again be trusted to remain in the correct position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally understand, as I'm sure Meyer/Petrino/Leach/Saban/Muschamp/Smart/Belicheck/Carroll would find it just as difficult to turn their switches off. It's ingrained, it's what got them where they are today making millions & millions to coach a sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autigersj 122 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Question, why does every one scrutinize what 23 says? Can't we all make predictions? I know he seemingly has inside information from time to time, but he is guessing like the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
