Long Snapper, Brian Brinsfield deserves an honorable mention in 93. Jim Fyffe literally voted him 1st place in the Heisman for never having a bad snap that season to Etheridge or Daniel, who were both invaluable to 11-0. And in 13 years of calling football, if Jim Fyffe believed a Long Snapper was worthy of the Heisman, you know he was pretty damn good.

Oh right. Only POSITIVE White comments on this forum, injuries and all. Start another White thread and you get banned. Unreal how you guys defend a Sun Belt QB. Can't wait till you guys dismiss Stidham's 30+ passing TD passes this season by saying "Oh but Sean could have done the same thing had he been in Lindsay's system." 10 TOTAL passing TDs in TWO seasons notwithstanding. Oh wait...he got injured 98 Bazillion times. Such a reliable guy.

So you purposely ignored the red zone pass intended for Manute Bol? Oh wait...I cherry-picked that one too.

Was he injured in the Memphis game? Proof please. The infinite excuse as to why White under-performs. Cherry picking THREE throws, TWO of them which were pick sixes? I DID provide a red zone pass that was intended for Manute Bol. Would you like for me to cherry pick more inexcusable throws? Just let me know as there's more where that came from.

Always was. My posts were never to say Lindsey is a product of Gus. However, absolutely Lindsey was Gus' fall-back plan because of familiarity.

Wrong

Not saying Lindsey is a "Gus guy" or is in Gus' "coaching tree." Merely stating Gus already put enough faith in him to hire him once, so it's no shock he would do it again. Gus never hired Hand at Tulsa. They were merely colleagues hired by Todd Graham, who ironically, also hired Lindsey, thus that small Gus fraternity is alive and well.

From work. I suppose you concur with my last post.

So you're telling me, for example, if Saban wanted Art Briles as his OC, his PTB wouldn't have allowed it? If your TRUE unbiased answer is no they wouldn't have allowed it, then you need to learn what "clout" means.

Did I state I'm upset?

His 1st choice was obviously another "Muschamp"...a proven guy outside the Gus tree. Otherwise, he would have hired Lindsey almost immediately after Lashlee left. No? Obviously, Gus hired his fall-back guy. I'm not saying Gus didn't aim high. That's what some of you are mistaken on. All coaches aim high. Gus doesn't have the clout anymore to get his 1st choice. Thus, he HAS to rely on fall-back guys. THAT'S the point. Feel free to call back.

The point is Gus couldn't get who he really wanted and instead, got his fall-back guy, a guy he knew all along would crawl from AZ to AU to become OC.

AGAIN...when have I said Lindsey was a minus or a negative hire? I haven't. What I DID say is Gus couldn't get who he really wanted and instead, got his fall-back guy.

When have I said this was a minus or a negative hire? I haven't. Stop insinuating otherwise. It's another familiar "yes" man hire because Gus couldn't hire who he really wanted, thus the wait. Lindsey was a fall-back plan.

Never said coffee-fetcher or doesn't have pride. Stop fabricating lies. Gus surrounded himself with another familiar hire AGAIN, bud.

Not reaching. Gus hired the man before, thus he's familiar with him. Gus surrounds himself with familiarity again. Shocker.

Gus has hired him previously. THAT'S the point.

Fall-back plan.

Hence why he was hired. "Yes" man.

That would be awesome.

Yup. Westerman got homesick too.

That's a big deal for recruits THAT far away. Ask Tyrik Rollison, also from TX. Make no mistake, Stidham was near 50/50 on A&M/AU until A&M backed off. Why? Mostly location.

Unless the gf moves to Auburn with him (highly unlikely I would assume), they'll be 800 miles apart most days for the next 1-2 years. Yeah, the gf's blessing def was a HUGE factor.
