Well bollocks to them. Claim 'em all and print the t-shirts. In a couple of months they will all be buying them.

The NCAA record book lists Auburn as a national champion in 1913, 1957, 1983, 1993 and 2010. You can add 2004 for a total of 6 we have every right to claim. Others also list 1910 and 1914 as well and they have a great case.

Ben Leard. Very accurate and smart. Those would play well in Harsin's offense. Need an oline though. If it had to be with this group, I would need Cam. Lawyer Tillman. If you followed Auburn in the 80s you know why.

Yeah apparently he had an injury that limited him in the weight room in 2019 and then they were no allowed for much of the offseason in 2020.

This might have been addressed. From what I have read, he was not able to do the necessary work in the weight room until this offseason. With the new training staff, I am hoping he as able to be much stronger at the point of attack. You are right, that has been one of his biggest issues. Hopefully the emphasis on getting stronger (strange that was not the focus before) will help across the LOS.

I still can't get over someone 6'4 playing corner at a high level.

Nope. Go here. It is right on the ESPN+ website. https://secure.web.plus.espn.com/billing/purchase/ESPN_PURCHASE_CMPGN/ESPN_PURCHASE_VOCHR/MESPN?locale=en_US

Gotcha. You can skip HULU and pay for ESPN+ by itself for about $7 a month.

I just cut cable then purchase the streaming services you want. Sure I don't get animal planet and E!, but I get through it.

Jeez when are they going to announce the station for New Hampshire at Stony Brook? Come on the game is Thursday!

They used to recruit in California quite a bit and they were early adopters of steroid use. They don't get much talent in Neb, and so the game caught up and then passed them by.

Nope. He lied about Tyler Siskey talking to UA coaches even though it was on camera. He refuses to release actual scholarship numbers. He lied about giving 4 year scholarships when Auburn started doing it. Those are just off the top of my head. Why wouldn't he lie about vaccinations? There are not repercussions for lying.

Since when does Saban follow rules? Who would trust them to give accurate info?

Hamm was 2nd team coach's All-SEC last year. Don't really understand why he is 3rd team this year.

Show Boise St beating FSU on the road with a freshman QB. That gives me more hope than anything I saw last year. In fact I recently re-watched the MSU, UT and Tex AM games from last year. Very discouraging. Not a ton of highlights in that batch and it did not include USC, UA, or UGA. Good Luck A96!

This always othered me. Everyone uses these liberally and successfully. The refs almost never call it. Just stupid not to use.

Nothing is sugar coated, but good information. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mcelroy-and-cubelic-in-the-morning/id1575603573

2014 Iron Bowl. grrrrr

Thanks TWill. Linebacker was an issue before he started recruiting.

Like Harsin or not, you cannot argue the man is not organized. We will find out if his plan works, but the man has a plan he is sticking to. I would be surprised if we ever see this kind of confusion on the sidelines next season.

Tight ends in the red zone will be the most visible change.

I would prefer to have Hamm and Council on the inside, but that requires someone to step up at tackle. Coffey was not terrible last year and he is bigger now, but we have not heard any scoop about him grabbing the opportunity. Not exactly encouraging for the whole line discussion.

Auburn Undercover podcast hinted that Hamm was absent (possibly Covid related). That is the reason Coffey was running 1st team. I am hoping Coffey can take the RT position and Hamm moves inside. Hamm does not seem to have the feet for the position.

I would not be surprised if a line is settled on after the scrimmage on Friday, at least the starters for Akron. We just need to have everyone in place by AL State. There might still be a position or two being decided in the first game, so don't be surprised if there is some shuffling the first game.

This certainly matches what we saw in the video posted this summer of the oline not knowing who to block. Just not blowing assignments and letting free runners through will be a big improvement. Of course some of the videos I have seen from practice are not that encouraging, especially the tackles. Looking forward to actual game play to see if anything has changed.
