94.5 birmingham?

[Browning4AU 405]

Scheduled or out of the blue?

[AUIH1 1,515]

Gus is not going to say much of anything other than coach speak. It would be fun to see some reporters hammer his ass with questions about his insane QB substitution pattern just to see a Queeg-type meltdown.

[DAG 34,045]

SW will be Starter and JF3 will be #2..we will see.

[AUDub 11,212]

"Moving forward Sean White will be our starting quartarback. Franklin will rep with the twos."

What I wanted to hear.

[AUDub 11,212]

Stephen Roberts will be back.

[AUDub 11,212]

"Jeremy will still get reps in practice. Will be ready if we need him."

[AUDub 11,212]

Talking like JJ has been relegated to third string. Gus realizes the musical chair QBs hurt our tempo.

He has to. It killed us.

By He, I mean Gus. 

[AUDub 11,212]

Pettway will have more of a role.

[Randman5000 4,235]

Just now, Bigbens42 said:

Pettway will have more of a role.

Omg. Why didn't he last game!

So that means he gets the start. 

[AUDub 11,212]

Kyle Davis and NCM will see a lot more of the field going forward.

[Randman5000 4,235]

Or more fourth and ones.

Malzahn "we thought it was a good plan and it wasn't"

 

 

He finally took blame for that circus Saturday.

.....for one series.  And then be relegated to watching.  (That would be consistent with Gus's promises of the past.)

Is he doing this for the fans?

Thanks, by the way

[AUDub 11,212]

The way he's talking we're done seeing JJ in meaningful game action.

[DAG 34,045]

Get behind Sean and bring JFIII along is being repeated,

 

Glad he said His plan failed.

[AUDub 11,212]

Says we're "getting behind Sean and bringing John Franklin along" ad nauseam

Nope... admitted the QB rotation was a mistake and he is moving forward with White as the starter and JF3 taking the #2 reps.

[McLoofus 35,182]

Thank you for the updates, gang. *Freaking loving* what I'm hearing about the QBs. Now let's hope he means it.

the first step is admitting that you have a problem....in his case, its admitting that HE IS THE PROBLEM!

[OnthePlains 2,014]

Happy to hear we have some responsibility being taken and not just the same ol coach speak we usually get.  Now we need it to translate to change on the field.
