Nothing more. It's a trendy thing to do amongst teen boys but that's about it. Also didn't eat right, non sustaining foods. Blood sugar drops like a mother trucker during those workouts. I wonder how many of these individuals were diabetes type 2. We had kids throw up on my junior high football team during sprints. I was like man I'm dying of thirst and need oxygen, why the heck are you vomiting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the guys going through it just weren’t what AU needed. AU has been dominated on the lines for the last 4 years or so. Hopefully HF and staff are changing that narrative. I live 45 minutes from ATL. The HC is a run first guy, mainly because he had D. Henry at Tenn Titans. He’s brought that mentality to ATL and due to ZERO cap space his first two years managed to keep them competitive. 14/20 is nothing great, but ATL was like 5th in rushing in NFL this year, with the same damn O Line. It’s about teaching. I believe HF will be one of the better teachers we have had at AU in years. I do still believe we need another QB, but I also wouldn’t be shocked to see Hank Brown or Geriner, win the starting job this year. Accuracy is better than athleticism when you have a line that can block for longer than 2 seconds, but we could also use another WR to stretch the field. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank2020 3,195 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Seems like we get this claim after each coaching change. We will have to see some fruition on the field, to see if change helps on field or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole Harsin is bonding with the players working out was actually an egomaniac wanting a pic to put on instagram. I dont expect to see a picture of Hugh in a sleveless hoodie showing off his muscles. I was pumped to get Freeze and Im even more excited today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAC BLACKERBY JAN 25, 2023 11:36 AM EST Hugh Freeze has taken over as Auburn's head coach and has changed just about everything. So far, it looks like everything is working out for the better. I spoke with an Auburn starter about what the new workouts have looked like and what some of the changes have looked like. The player I spoke to said, "The workouts are 1000% harder than the last coaching staff." He also added that previous staff's workouts had gotten stale and that this change was needed. There's more energy when it comes to growing and improving in the offseason. The player said that I could share the conversation but asked me to not use his name. Auburn hired Hugh Freeze on November 28th. Since then, he helped lead Auburn's recruiting efforts to allow Auburn to finish as a top 20 class in the 2023 rankings, including the flip of 5-star Keldric Faulk from Florida State. Freeze also was able to add 12 players to Auburn's roster via the transfer portal. Auburn will play in the annual A-Day game on April 8th in Jordan Hare Stadium. Probably true, but we seem to hear this after every coaching change. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More people should have listened to you earlier about Harsin. Which is why I want to ask why you think it's obvious the roster is much improved? I'd say the OL is better, which is very important. Secondary, WR, TE, LB and QB are all about the same. Could go up or down, depending on if anyone can have a breakout season. I expect Freeze to add a QB, but he hasn't yet. RB is worse, IMO. I don't like Battie, Alston, or Cobb (if we get him) more than Tank. I could be wrong about this group as a whole, but Tank is more talented than anyone we added. DL is much worse. We have no one on the roster like Hall or Wooden. Leota leaving also hurts. We have nothing at edge, which is a huge problem. Freeze added some nice pieces from the portal, but we also lost our three best playmakers. I can see every position group looking better because Freeze is obviously a better coach than Harsin. But as far as talent goes, I don't see a huge jump yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What players came in this year to make it more talented. I'm guessing the o line is what you are talking about? I could've swore that you argued with me for saying the team wasn't that talented last year. I could be wrong but I thought it was you. Imo there's like 4 or 5 people on here you can't disagree with without everybody getting mad at you. If it wasn't you then maybe it was stat or somebody like that. But yes I feel of course we have to and will eventually get better but I don't think this team is super talented so I wanted to know where you feel like we are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing the o line is what you are talking about? Offense we lost tank & added a good bit, probably aren't down yet. I'd say over all up. Easily the OL as you mentioned, so that's 3 or 4 of the 5 spots on the OL. I think we're probably more talented at TE and might have a more dynamic TE we haven't had in a while. WR is probably a push, added a guy but he's never really done much. QB is obviously a push, hope this changes during the May window unless magic happens during the spring. RB I think we've downgraded. I like Hunter, but ppl over value him & drastically under value Tank Defense we lost 4 guys that'll get drafted and 3 especially will be difficult to replace (Hall, Leota, Wooden). Probably say we're down slightly more here than we were up on offense DL - I think we'll have more depth this year than last with another nose and the DT from Maryland (if healthy) is a really good player. Added numbers, but losing Wooden hurts Edge - Biggest miss and probably the biggest drop off of any position group. Hall & Leota are big losses and we didn't add any SEC contributors. 10 arrows down here LB - I think we got better with Tolan/Keys addition vs losing only OP. DB - Push. CBs will be really solid if they aren't covering for an eternity b/c our pass rush is non existent. I don't think we made the talent leap a lot of people think, especially when you go position by position. Hugh did a great job in the portal, but we also lost some key talented players. Really need a QB and an edge rusher in may. The later is probably more of a pipe dream solely b/c teams can get creative and play more than one edge at a time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURex 1,984 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Funny thing is, after Gus was fired and Harsin arrived, Auburn players were going on about how much harder S&C workouts were under Harsin, and Harsin was going on about how Auburn would be bigger, stronger, more fit than opponents. So now, 1,000% tougher than Harsin ..... wow, that's really .... okay .... haha What I want to hear from players is that they are being physically challenged more than they ever have in the past. But in the end, I want to see the results on the field. Not just physical. But mental toughness, resolve, dedication, commitment, refusal to give up. Posing with a big muscle is irrelevant. Dominating your opponent on the field is the goal. Let's hope the new S&C program helps Freeze and his staff get us there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
