This is crazy, he's perpetually 20 years old in my mind.

Thanks, Zeek - great points. May sound cynical but other than center, I doubt the "better" OL schtick, it's another mediocre patchwork of promising talent and underachieving transfer veterans. QB discussion of course should include perpetual oline mediocrity and our crazy OC turnover. Like most QBs, Thorne when healthy thrived with a great MSU O line. Sad abt Geriner but you're prob right. Many individual bright spot guys on this team who will play on Sundays.

Whining and complaining about our fans having to travel 2500 to spokane after team we crazy supported all season won major conf tourn was...is...legit. Thing about all sports boards, most people havent coached 20 year olds in high stakes and dont understand the power of them putting together their best ball (cough cough Yale cough cough) against 20 year olds with the periodic blahs (they aint pros) . You just hope it doesnt happen to your team when it counts. Give Yale credit for that day against us.

One if the major things I still dont understand about NIL is the agreement phase. We pay you blah blah $$$ and you agree (contract) to play for us. After your agreement we at least somewhat back off recruiting your position because you will fill that need/position. You then decommit after agreement, especially late in the cycle, we're at least partially screwed. Right?

UGa may shy away from his apparent commitment timeline, which our Auburn beat guys seem to think is late in the game to build a recruiting class around.

Can we somehow pin that Bo Nix interview here somewhere? About half this board need to listen to that in their sleep.

Yes, CFB issues are still a fast moving target. If your coach is(not) suited for its current business model, wait a few months.

Bold statement. His receivers have historically run crap routes, leaving him to throw to where he thinks they'll be - instead of to a spot w/ timing. He's still throwing to only 2-3 SEC caliber receivers so your prediction may come true. Whomever replaces Thorne in 2025 should have less reason to be "late with the ball".

Interesting. Most non-auburn 3d parties I've talked with say Thorne to Cam/Fairweather/Deal looks unstoppable, w/ jury still out on Brown to half dozen other receivers. White looks like a youngster with all the tools. Guy I talked to said "y'all dont need Thorne to go down with an injury, he needs to protect himself more."

Word is, ole Hugh just put ole Bruce on hold and is calling Yale.

All you need to know about this guy is he was one of SEC Country/Atlanta Journal's inaugural rag writers. He's Thalmal-ian.

27 win, SEC tourny champ Auburn's fans will be rewarded with a 4 seed and have to fly cross country to play in Spokane bracket. 21 win Bama, who didn't make it out of the quarters, was given a 4 seed and bammers only have to drive to play in Memphis. 7 seed Florida's path actually looks better than ours. Can't make up this crap.

USC shot 35% in that game but Paris says we won due to our shooting anomaly, nothing to do with our D. If our D deserves so little credit he needs to get on his shooters who are apparentky so unchallenged and still 35%. USC losing now by 30 w/ 3 min remaining.

USC head coach says our 40 pt win over them last month was due to our "shooting anomaly." We shot lights out that game but our D absolutely stuffed them too. USC can be very good and Im not taking this game for granted, but knd of a dbag pregame statement from Paris. Go Auburn!

There's an NIL irony here somewhere.😆
