    That's the nice way of putting it. I'd say we destroyed promising high school quarterbacks' future careers with the abysmal QB "development" we've had over the past decade. But that's just me. 

    Truth.  Can anybody name one QB in the past 10 years who was better when they left than when they arrived?  
    As for Bo, with an average OLine and blocking schemes that make sense he could have done great things at Auburn.  He proved at Oregon that he has talent.

    I’m not sure how stacked we are compared to UGA….some of the numbers I have seen thrown around are 🤯.  Apparently gave a 5* a $1.8M signing bonus and $800k a season and Ohio State couldn’t match???  That’s insane.  

    I mean I guess we could be, just not sure aside from possibly the 5*s from Carver that Auburn would even be talking those kind of numbers with anyone but then again I’m not running the collectives and don’t know what the money flow looks like. 

    The original design of NIL was never meant to be like this. I don’t if it could be reversed at this point.

    It's been and issue from day one...so you're preaching to the choir. Actually this problem has been lurking for 3 to 4 years. To play OL in the SEC you need size, quickness, agility, and strength. Not having any one of those attributes means you need to play DII, not SEC ball.

    It amazes me how many times one, two, three or none of the OLineman never touch a defender as they kill our QB or RB.

    Another thing to point out is the awful decisions at the under 2 in regulation. We were up five and bricking 3s for what? Even half common sense basketball closes that out and wins that game. I’m sick about Wendell’s shot but the more I think about the atrocious play under 2 I get more sick. 

    If we make free throws we win in regulation, even though we played ugly.  Less than 50% from the line is terrible.

  5. We saw a couple of our weaknesses in this one, handling the relentless press every possession and (not just this game) careless passing.  We will get those fixed. 
    On to UAT.  You can bet they will be primed after that somewhat embarrassing loss to Mizzou.  We better bring our A game in all phases of the game to come out of Coleman with a W. 
    Im surprised there were no comments in here about Jimmy Dykes stating that Jabari will be the #1 lottery pick in the draft.  I wouldn’t be surprised about  top 5 lottery pick, but #1?  Thoughts?

    DD just had a spring camp, a fall camp, bowl practices and a 13-game season to try and make the field. And he never did.  When your a player and you never make the field, you, the coaches, and everyone else on the team pretty much knows why your not playing. He is not ready to play yet. Its that simple. 

    Yeah, kind of like all the people who thought TJ should be QB1 in front of Nix all season.  As it turned out, the coaches were probably right all along.

    LOL; was waiting for the excuses after blowing a 25 point lead, then a 14 point lead in back to back weeks. Here they come…

    Meanwhile, our O’coordinator, isn’t much better.

    Tank ran all over the USC defense all night. He never touched the ball on our last possession.  ??

    Masons gotta go. I don't blame it all on him as the defensive talent has gone significantly down the last few years. I'm on the fence with Bobo still. It's not acceptable, but I guess I'm more understanding since our offense has been a complete joke for 3-4 years now. That was always going to be painful

    All true about our offense being a joke the last few years but Bobo’s play calling makes no sense at all.

    Again Auburn was up 28-3 at home . Are U saying  Mississippi State has more talent than Auburn. Also who idea is it to play the bend but don’t break

    MSU does have more talent and depth on both lines than we do.  The defensive scheme was terrible against the Leach offense.  That is on Coach Mason.
