Emory Blake ‏@EB_TXmade

Watching College football today made me think about playing

It was a tough year for us, but no one gave up, thats players or coaches

I hear people talking about how coach chizik lost the team which is completely untrue

Coach Yox is a legendary strength coach that taught me the value of hard work, whether things are going perfect in a season or not

I'm not one the usually voices my opinions on twitter but I felt these are some things that should be known

& just to make it clear None of this is a knock on the coach Malzahn hire. Im very happy for coach Malzahn and wish him nothing but the best

I had a great 4 years at auburn and through the ups and downs I learned a lot and enjoyed my time there and I wouldn't change a thing#WDE

and Golf smells like moth balls! #OlderthanMethuselah

Guess the football gods were just totally against Auburn this year.

I wish Emory the best of everything. He was a huge part of our team success while he was at Auburn. I hope to watch him on Sundays for many years to come.

War Eagle Emory!!!!!!!!!!!

So what really did cause the problem? Did outer space alien body snatchers just replace the team with less talented doubles?

IMO Emory just doesn't want to throw people under the bus. We had problems. Poor O schemes for our talent IMO. The only QB we could count on was a true freshman. A D that had holes in it. I have no problem with Emory having his coaches and teammates backs. In all honesty, I would think less of Emory if he blasted any of them.

He's taking the high road, which he should. Not going to do himself or anyone else any favors by throwing people under the bus.

[cptau 169]

Agreed. Slowly what happened is coming out and being confirmed. The players are not into spreading stories.

[TigerNBham 3]

We all ought to take a lesson here.

Was is past is past.

Get on the Bus.

It was just bad coaching from the top...plain and simple.

I love Emory Blake but I have a very hard time believing Chizik didn't lose the team.

[IronMan70 3,315]

OK, well thanks for everything you did for AU Emory and good luck in the NFL.

I tell ya what....all I got out of that was the Golf smells like mothballs.

I was already pretty certain that was true though

Just became a big fan of yours!

No question about it...Emory has no idea what he is talking about. The people that really understand the situation are on these sports boards and that's who we should be listening to?.

I know it's amazing..I don't think he lost the team..just a very poor coaching job..

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Emory Blake is a class act.

EB is certainly more informed about the team than any of us, so I intend to take his word for it and move on.

Yes, God forbid ANYBODY believe what a key player who was actually on the team says about what happened. I mean, what does this guy know, if people want to know what happened, don't ask someone who was there, just read the Internet. People who post online know a LOT more about things down there than the actual players.

[Weegle777 78]

Obviously the football gods said:

"We smite thee O' tigers of Auburn."

"Thou shalt wallow beneath our mighty iron fists."

"Thine season shall be filled with anguish and vile failings."

"Even though thou hast great talent and great leadership, thou wilt lose 9."

"We the football gods have spoken."

"Thine great crimson enemy shall dash thy skull against the rocks, and shall proceedeth to claim the natty."

"So shall it be."

Ok WarEagle10, since this thread was jacked from the OP, I gotta ask:

Is your new found obsession with pro-bird, anti-golf post scripts and addition in your signature line an attempt to offset the fact that it says Golf is Great above your avatar?? :laugh:

Exactly! Golf abused his power. I think Golf is adequate. Great? No! ( I just noticed it yesterday. Golf said he did it a few weeks ago. You have to keep an eye on Golf at all times.)

Does it matter? We were 3-9 and looked like a piss poor high school team out on the field... If he didn't lose the team, what does that say about the coaches?

A certain other person has golf propaganda above his avatar.

How did we ever win THREE? It is a miracle.
