wareaglexx 34 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Start to read the Clint Mosley thread and boom! Took no time to find out people are saying we don't have a QB cause Clint left.... Damn.. Why not just hold your horses a little and see what CGM does. One may find that none of our QB's had a dogs chance at succeeding last year cause the coaches didn't know how to use/fine-tune talent.. . Yes, I said it, blame it on the previous coaches.. They were the problem.. Go ahead, Blast me for it.. When CGM goes out and recruits a Freshman or Juco QB and tosses the existing QB's in the trash, so-to-speak. I will then say we had no talent at QB... Give the new coaches and current players a chance to work together before saying "oh crap, we don't have a QB or RB or WR..!" Why keep saying we don't have talent when really don't know what is under the hood? It is like a car, doesn't matter how big the engine is, if the timming is horribly out of whack then the car can't function. I believe in CGM and trust he will make the rights decisions for both Auburn and this football team.... my 2 cents... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoetTiger 1,901 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I agree with OP last years coaching was horrendous, we have no clue the potential of the players we have, but we all can agree that this staff is more proven in the coaching department.

weagle06 75 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Let's be honest... Whether we have 2 scholarship QB's or 14, if it comes down to playing Clint does anybody honestly think he gives us a snowball's chance in hell to compete with anybody other than our homecoming competition?

AU88ME 0 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Something to think about Jonathan Wallace had a fairly good year last year...not great, but good. Khiel Frazier I think will have a better year this year than last because he will be in a system he is more comfortable with. Khiel will have to think less about what he is supposed to be doing and just do it - which should lead to better performance. Jeremy Johnson is also coming in and will be the third string QB most likely. We also have a few players who were QB in high school (e.g. Bray, Trovon Reed) that could possibly be servicable if we get despirate. I understand the concern, but if your worrying premise was that our existing QB weren't great - than that hasn't changed by Mosley leaving unless you felt that Mosley should have been the starter.

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 We need to sign a juco QB who's able to step right in to action if something starts to go wrong with Wallace and Frazier. I doubt Gus would start a true freshman like Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bishop 5 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I've got family that live near Clint's family. They've been saying for months he was gone, so this feels like old news to me. I'm not worried about that one bit. I agree with wareaglexx, let the coaches handle the business before giving yours to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixie1860 27 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 In my previous "life" at AUF, I was constantly blasted for defending Kiehl Frazier and his abilities. I still believe that we will be cheering HIM to victory next year. I like Jonathan Wallace, I really do. Phenix City will always be my 2nd "Hometown". I just do not believe that EVERYONE in the nation was wrong and that he really has no talent. So, once CGM has been here a minute and HE has decided that Kiehl can't get it done, then I will admit that I was wrong. I sat in the stands at JHS last year and watched a Thoroughbred being asked to perform Dressage. Yeah they both use horses, but for completely different reasons.

keesler 5,934 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I think the more important issue is that we have no proven QB right now - the Oline & Dline are sketchy and the LB's All of that spells disaster in the SEC. The current staff has their work cut out for them that's fo sho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Builder 86 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Spread, Pro Style, Freshman doesnt matter, if you cant throw the ball to an open receiver then we are in trouble.I think the excuse "he wasnt comfortable with the new system" is just that, an excuse. Hopefully one of our QB's can runs some plays this year. I have my money on Wallace. I think Keihl gets ample time to show he's the man but Wallace will start.

AUQBDAD, is that you??? I think Keihl is a kid with plenty of talent and heart, playing behind a weak Oline and having to learn a new game plan. I think Jonathon Wallace is a man-child with leadership skills, a brain for football and a good work ethic. I can't predict which will win out in Gus's offense. I truly hope he gives each guy a fair shake and I'd love to see him utilize the talents of each guy, though not necessarily an equal time 2-QB offense. What I really want to know is, and this is VERY important...are we gonna get to see those play-calling pictures on the sidelines again??? I loved those!!!

Last year Keihl had none, (Lefty and Chiz) this year he will have the best in the business. You will see a different Keihl this season, and watch him hit those open receivers!

Many 5 and 4 stars are bust, while many of them play well and get to the next level. But I still probably agree with you that Kiehl will have a chance to be starter and success this coming year, since in Gus system, Gus do the thinking part for his QB. There are no complex read and change play be QB himself alas Payton Manning style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
