Agree. But that is the word. I shake my head daily at some of the stuff Gus and his staff do.

Also, whether or not Auburn offers/takes Tyrone Truesdell could depend on Bryant's decision. However, there could be another school getting back into the mix for Truesdell. 

Yeah I saw that too. Not too excited about it. I'll hold out hope because why not right?

Good pickup. We will have gotten at least  two D-linemen in a weak year

Agree. I said this on another post but while some call this a reach signing, I don't think so at all. He's showing at a 3*-4*, not like he's a low 3*, and film looks really good. I see it more diamond in the rough. These guys usually come in with something to prove too.

Truesdell was only going to be offered if Bryant said no to AU. 

I'm not sold on that just yet. I think everything has been trending up for Truesdell for the last week or so. He's borderline 3*-4* from what I've seen. I think it may be one of the diamond in the rough situations. From what I've seen on film and read, this guy wasn't a reach.

For anyone wondering it's apparently going to be livestreamed on CBSSports.com

Got him.

I think when all is said and done this fella is ours.

Moving Forward is a good title for this thread.  Everyone recognizes the inherent problems of trying to win with 3 QBs & 2 other wildcat formations, but another glaring issue with the offense involves the blocking up front & on the edge.  The OL was supposed to be a strength of the team yet there were clear indications of as much confusion up front as was evident in the backfield.  Both tackles had issues with pass protection and the center was getting pushed back too easily.  One time, I saw Kozan fall backwards on a pass play without anyone in front of him.  Wha ...?  The WR blocking effort can at least be explained due to inexperience but what happened to our OL veterans?   Here's hoping the blocking on offense gets on track for this week to set the tone for the rest of the season.  WDE

I truly think part of the issue with the O-line stems from the same lack of rhythm we keep talking about. Each QB has a different cadence, a different manner of snap count, etc. It's got to be tough to adjust that every series, let alone down. I think the only position that can 100% fairly be evaluated and judged based on this game is the one Gus Malzahn holds.
