au75 75 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Today I will take the praise of Danielson on our team and hope for improvement as the year goes on. WDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 WDE_OxPx_2010, I assumed he meant the 2010 team, but I could be wrong. Either way, I think Gary is confirming something that we've discussed quite a bit on here over the last few weeks: this team is the most loaded we've had since 2004, and that's probably putting it conservatively. (The point of contention here lately has been about experience, but I'm not sure why, as Stat showed quite plainly that this team is very inexperienced. Then, of course, you've got some guy named Malzone or something saying that the thing that stands out most to him about the 2-deep is eight true freshmen being on it. /threadjack) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimesAU 89 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I fully believe that this team is more physically gifted than our 2010 team, from top to bottom. The questions I have about this team revolve more around leadership and experience at key positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aucanucktiger 1,552 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Danielson may be a good airwaves foil for Verne "Oh No" (see tip-6) Lundquist's calls re AU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,525 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 How many 2010 guys are on NFL rosters? How many guys on this roster can be NFL guys? We'll obviously have to take a look at this in 4-5 years to make a completely accurate assessment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaitopher 807 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I remember the time Verne was doing live commentary on a replay he thought was live and Daniels had to correct him. Was a classic! How does one confuse that, especially when he was at the game!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to say both because the 2010 team would not have come close to losing to Va. Tech last season. I'm betting he meant 2010 Auburn though.

mcgufcm 3,740 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 More from 2010 than I thought: Cam, Nick, Dee Ford (who was around a loooong time), Dyer, McCaleeb (unless he was cut this summer), Slade (RS Freshman), Brandon Mosley, Bynes, Bates, Thorpe, Parkey, I think Steven Clark. That's five years after that season. The list of guys who were in the NFL immediately after the 2010 year would be longer (Ziemba, Blanc, etc.).

Won't be surprised if he gets picked back up somewhere. Did Emory Blake get cut? Btw, if anybody's curious, 39 guys who were on NFL rosters in July of this year took the field for bama in 2011. That's not a realistic goal, but we should probably shoot for no other team in the country ever having 350% the NFL talent that we do on their roster.

aubinvnam 29 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Go back and watch all the AU games Danielson has called starting all the way back to the game in the Swamp in 1994 ( a victory which ranks in the top ten victories all time by AU. Don't think I have felt higher about a tiger victory than after that game...) Danielson has a great ability to predict what is going to happen on a preceding play. Verne is a harmless and good-natured doofus but Danielson is the real deal I think. He also tends to like AU which can't help but make you like him. Damn, how much longer?

That's not a realistic goal, but we should probably shoot for no other team in the country ever having 350% the NFL talent that we do on their roster. Honestly, I wasn't at all curious. But, since we are talking about it, I think it's important to note that the majority of those players were also on the '10 UA team that we beat. Besides, when it comes to total players in the NFL, UA's edge is only 49-41. If Muschamp can get the defense turned around and start developing the players on that side of the ball, I don't see any reason to think that we cant put MORE players into the league than UA. As for me, I will never consider it unrealistic to believe that we either are or can be better than UA in every possible way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick.AU 12,497 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I fully believe that this team is more physically gifted than our 2010 team, from top to bottom. The questions I have about this team revolve more around leadership and experience at key positions. I agree but I do think we have leadership at all levels of the D: Lawson, Frost/Cass, Holsey/Tray. Now outside of JJ on O who would u name that's a leader there? That's a very difficult question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now outside of JJ on O who would u name that's a leader there? That's a very difficult question. Just taking a stab, but I'd guess that guys like Avery Young and Ricardo Louis (players with tons of experience) have stepped up. And it can't hurt to have a senior like J. Wallace to keep guys in line. He's seen a lot since he arrived at Auburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
