Well…that’s not what I said lol. You can re-read that post 100 times and I don’t think you’ll ever see me even speak to the quality of backup behind Emory Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,648 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 There’s also not many programs with well developed 3rd stringers. I would’ve liked for Dee Davis to see some burn but it’s not like you have an abundance of opportunity for that lol Alabama is QBU these days and they don’t even develop 3 QBs any season that I can think of. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now a days any program is very very lucky to even two much less three. Just the way it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blasphemy!! You MUST hate Gus to be on this board! Get with it man!😁 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer Brown 2,391 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I wish Malzahn the best. I don't hate the man. He has the UFC fans really hyped, like he did Auburn fans. He literally sucked the life out of Auburn football for me. I watched the game, and was glad they won, but I told someone watching with me, what he would run on the next play, many times during the game. They won 9 games, with a weak schedule, ranked somewhere around 86. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevon67 2,368 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Well one thing Harsin has going for him, unlike Gus he didn't come in red hot his first season..........Gus come in hot and if I remember correctly many in the media were claiming he would end Saban. I'll always pull for Gus wherever he coaches.........One of his biggest problems was when Saban complained the game was to fast and offense was slowed down considerably Gus never really adjusted........we had some terrible losses under Gus,but we also had some great wins.

Yup. A lot of folks didn't make the connection when summarizing Gus that he did most of his heavy lifting in year one. It was a great thing... in 2013. It was a bad thing in 2020. So, while Harsin didn't do a good enough job this season and it needs to get better, a 10-win season wouldn't have mattered all that much, either. I've had 2023 circled since Gus was fired. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We as a fan base need to learn patience in my opinion.........rebuilds take time.......Saban had a few hard knocks along the way..........Saban has done an amazing job of maintaining success.....By no means a Bama fan but also would be lying to say he hasn't done something historic with the enemy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamZero77 1,784 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Gus Malzahn and UCF could've went undefeated and been sitting pretty in the playoffs right now just like Cincinnati is, and I would still feel 100% it was the right move to fire Gus. It was just time!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
