BigBlueWDE 1,136 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Hopefully he isn't upset about Gus getting let go. He can't possibly think he was well utilized the past 3 years. Good grief, it would be borderline Stockholm Syndrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placekicker 38 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 It sounds to me like we have had some “me first” players in the locker room. I’m glad they’re leaving. As much as I would like to have Flash’s speed next year, if he’s not all in, I don’t want him around those guys who are. Let them all walk. Rebuild with those who are committed.

boisnumber1 2,818 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 He really should go the track route, that's where he fits best, but I'm sure he's going to try and get drafted to get at least one good payday. I dont see him making it in the NFL though, not anything of significance anyway. Simply having straight line speed might get you signed, but it wont keep you around long. His ball skills as a WR are average at best, maybe not even that. He has no wiggle when he runs. Not a return guy. Routes need a lot of work. And apparently he's a legend in his own mind.

I am CONVINCED that any kid who Gus actually signs to play in his offense completely buys in to whatever Gus says. Like, some of our players still describe him as "an offensive genius".

It's the great programs that seem to have the best chance at keeping it team first because someone is always ready to take their place if they decide to use the mirror as the first priority.

aubiefifty 16,706 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 stolen from the rant...............it sounds like flash might be mad..... Jerraud Powers/Daren BatesPosted on 1/1/21 at 7:25 pm 170 Not happy about Flash not playing. Comments on Twitter. Powers: "His arse should be out there playing. Who he think he is." Daren Bates made a series of comments talking about how Flash's speed isn't enough to get him high in the draft. Said he needs to work on his WR skills anyway. For reference, Powers played 8 years in the league as a DB. Bates is still in the league as a LB. I like it when guys who are in the league still care about AU football. Oh, and apparently Flash took all reference to Auburn off his Twitter bio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnMike86 43 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 He's gonna do him. We'll do us. It may be unpopular but I'm of the mind if anyone doesn't wanna be here then they need to go their own way so we can have a locker room full of guys who want to play for Auburn. We don't need players here mad because Gus got fired. We don't need guys here who are mad because Steele didn't get hired. We need a fresh start. If the current players wanna stay here, play for Harsin, and give their all for Auburn then great. The ones that don't can move on. The transfer portal is there and for the ones that are good enough the NFL is there. It's what's best for them and us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't have a field day with you at all stop being hurt. I agreed with you it takes more than being fast, what I said to you as you don't know how skilled he is. It's impossible for you know. I told him the same and of course they are going to go at him because of the circumstance. They would say he's trash right now but they don't think that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that I do not want players that are not willing to stick it out. Even if he has to cross train on top of football. Love the guy, I wish he would stay. If he wants to leave, I hope he finds what he is looking for. To me , if a player wants to leave he is not the type of payer I want. The only reason that is acceptable would be family health or something along those lines. IF a player wants to leave, good for them. They must not have been that committed in the first place. I think he is trolling anyway. "Opting out" is a poor choice of words. "Quitting on your team" is much more accurate. Sick of the closet bammers on here who urge kids on Auburt to "opt out" and encourage their bammer players to "come back to win a championship."

USATiger 741 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Wish Schwartz all the best. As long as there isn't a mass exodus of the WR group, we have plenty of talent, and yesterday showed those guys are talented and hungry for playing time. Thanks for your time! Good luck!
