Well Walker White will be wearing #11!

I hope he is as good as the last White who wore that number!!!!! WDE!!

Well, we might have to be patient with him if he is - Stan's TD/INT ratio was AU-ful the first few years......

Bear Bryant called him "The best player at any position in the country".

Apparently a lot of people made their decision on the 2016 presidential election from Facebook, swinging the victory to Trump. At least that was the theory posted here at the time. When I said if you get your info from FB then you don’t deserve to vote I got lambasted. 

You got lambasted because the theory was wrong. 

If all of you on here read only one book for the rest of your lives, especially you Fitty, make it Robert Cialdini's "Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion". Everything from Nick Saban to Presidential politics will suddenly make more sense to you.

i respectfully disagree. if anyone does their research they will understand. she does not need pub she is a billionaire.

How do you think she got to that status Fifty? Marketing and PR, and having a team that's good at it, along with a pretty face and some singing talent, but the marketing and PR teams trump the latter every time. She may have genuine affection for Kelce, but if you can't wrap your head around her PR team gleefully exploiting the relationship, then I don't know what to tell you. 

Anyone who would make a decision on who to vote for in a city mayoral election, much less for POTUS,  based on the endorsement of an uneducated child who can sing and has a great PR team, doesn't deserve vote anyway. 

I think the entire perception that a large number of people care is being created just for more PR - for her and the NFL with certainty, that's just good marketing and maybe for Biden too. I don't care about the NFL or Swift, and I suspect there are more people who feel that way than not. And for the record, I don't believe the Nielson numbers either. They have to estimate and use averages for too many aspects of it. 

LSU 5* OT Lance Heard, looking like the Vols. Played for them a lot this past year.

That must be Spanish. In English it means a ninja that's a nun.

He mispelled it. The correct country boy-ese spellin' is "nunYa", as in "T'ain't nunya bidness"

@TigerHorn I assume you’re an Auburn/UT fan. Seen this guy much?

Grad of Texas (2x). I casually follow Longhorn sports, but their message boards that I know of are all highly toxic places, worse than the free board here or ITAT's old board by far, so I have never gotten into the player by player details. If he was good enough to see the field at Texas, he's probably more than good enough to start for AU for a year of fill in. He will also have a pre-programmed hate of OU stored up for that game, and some experience defending their O to pass along.

We do not have a single WR on the team - until these guys report - who could make those catches. Bowl season has been depressing, watching WR's for other teams make one contested catch after another.

I may be eating crow in record time. This kid has some wheels. Bear in mind this highlight reel is when he was a sophomore in high school.

 

So basically about every 2nd or 3rd catch the kid made was highlight material. He caught anything in his vicinity, under- and overthrows, has wheels, and can juke. I think he'll work out jes fine.....

Guarantee you a good portion of the "AU Fan" hate is coming from fans of other schools, especially the one we lost to. And your comment is BS. 

Pretty sure its going to be Faber College.

I was a cook at Quincy's before college.  We had the best breakfast buffet in town because Spartan Foods also owned Hardees. The same lady would make biscuits for the two restaurants starting at 3:00 am each morning.

If you have any idea what was used to make their steaks so tender, I'd sure love to know! 

This is a new one, apparently Jimbo's nutritionist gave them all chronic gas. I'd think twice about tackling them myself, and them gang tackling one of our guys......that should be against the Geneva Convention! 😄 See attached file if the image doesn't appear.

Seriously?  Hayden Fry has been dead for nearly 4 years.  

It's OK, he's having an '80's flashback. 

I'm all in on the Duke's Mayo Bowl. If nothing else, it's a short drive (from a Texan's perspective) down to the last of the Quincy's Steakhouses in Florence SC. I used to love that place when I was in my teens and 20's.

A lot of similarities between Gus/Auburn/Cam and Jimbo/FSU/Jameis 

Except that Gus did it again with a converted DB. And nearly pulled it off another time. Jimbo was a one hit wonder.

IMHO, the notion of corporate execs, coaches, etc.,  getting HUGE payouts when they are fired for poor results, bad behavior, incompetence, etc. is beyond ridiculous and the practice should stop.  The people at the top are already privileged to 'earn' huge salaries that should set them up for life.  Meanwhile the other 99% can be unceremoniously booted from jobs due to factors outside of their control (outsourcing, corporate mergers, bad economy, corporate malfeasance, etc.) and many get little to nothing to tide them over.   Life isn't fair to be sure, but inequities like this are controllable.

You're pretty much just talking about coaches (every one of them) and a miniscule handful of infamous CEOs. You like the broad brushes much?

Gotcha.  That makes more sense.  I was feeling very old for a minute.  Now I just feel old.  

Well, there's something we have in common. I'd just remind you that it's better than the alternative. 😀

Read the post I was replying to - I barely remember Gary Hollingsworth.

It is a conundrum for me.   At times they play lights out.   Cal game is a perfect example.   Today, the D simply overwhelmed an Arky team that put up lots of points on the road at Florida.  But then the possessions I have beaten like a dead horse.....   Maybe the answer is Scott and Keys being hurt. It would be interesting to see an in-depth analysis of the D's performance with and without Scott and Keys on the field. 

You might also want to remember that Jaylin Simpson was either out or playing hurt for all of Georgia's comeback. We have talent, but no depth.

The best at that I ever saw was the Alabama quarterback that grew up an Auburn fan. Tall, lanky, dark headed.  
 

Holloway, maybe?  Gary, maybe?  
 

He could freeze a DB with a handoff, have the ball behind his back and then zip a 20 yard completion. 

I barely remember him, but if you watched Cam closely, he rode fakes to the RB longer than any QB I've ever watched. His size wasn't the only reason he got a lot of running yards.
