AU-HANDLEY-TIGER 205 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Kirby is competing because he’s out recruited most of the teams on the schedule. If he had been hired at Auburn he would have been fired probably 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just saying what I have encountered. I live in a high % bama town and most of my family are bama fans. Again I’m just saying what I encountered while football was being played. Maybe they were talking about his QB play relative to Tua? Like I said, Jalen’s deficiencies really showed up in the fourth after seeing Tua put up Godly numbers. He didn’t look nearly as dynamic. Overall, all I heard was aww he’s such a good sport. He could’ve quit his team like Kelly Bryant, blah blah. This fine man was 28-2 and look how he celebrates TDs with Tua blah blah.

See I never saw much of that, a little on the boards, but almost everything I saw or heard was negative. People at work “jalen just doesn’t have it”, hell he sure had it for those last few drives didn’t he? (Talking about tonight), you can talk about talent, etc, all you want but jalen is a winner and a gamer. I had family members his freshman season saying he was better than cam newton. Then quickly threw him under the bus when tua won the title. For me it’s been 90-10, 80-20 at best in terms of negative to positive comments, but that’s just my personal experience. My neighbor, who’s dad played for bear, would probably make me feel the same way even if nobody else ever said anything, with what he said week 1 lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody knew Tua was tbe QB and some crazy people probably did say mean things because they probably felt Jalen could easily be discarded earlier on. You better believe their appreciation grew more and more once be announced he was going no where and with Tua continuing to go down.

jared52 4,354 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 uat replaces their heisman front-runner QB with the previous season’s SEC POY who leads their team full of 5*’s to the SEC championship. What an unlikely story. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Well..poor Kirby had the hopes of the entire free world riding on him today and he makes probably the worst coaching decision of 2018. But folks at Oklahoma, Ohio State are probably giving thanks to him for letting them back into the race for the 4th slot in the playoffs. Clemson is in the process of destroying Pitt and ND is in...as is Bama......so Oklahoma and Ohio State are in a beauty contest to see who gets to play bama.
