The tittle has 3 stars on each side of it to make sure it's not missed. I was already in the QB thread when I hit refresh and nobody mentioned it so I did. When I left that thread and went to the main page then I saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUFriction 1,179 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Crap! I was hopefully Joey would edge it out.The only easy way to have kept both QBs was for Joey to start. Welp, hopefully Gus has a plan to prevent Gatewood from transferring. Being stuck with 1 scholarship QB is not a good place to be. I don't want our season to be in the hands of Sandberg!!!

TigerFanAU 586 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Bo is a very good QB. But I still worry about him producing in Malzahn's offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdgeneration 6,469 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I also feel like Joey will have a big role. Not to mention that he is just one injury away from starting. I hope that he knows that it was a difficulty decision and that he is valued as a player at Auburn, not only by the coaches, but by his teammates and the fans. This has been heart wrenching for me, because I know that both guys are talented and both deserve to play. I hope Joey keeps working hard to be ready. I don't want him to feel like he wants to be somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will have a pretty big role on this team and will get plenty of PT to show off his abilities. If he does transfer next season, We'll be bringing in Garnett as a third scholarship QB. (Bo, Cord, Chayil). Certainly hope he sticks around and the coaches find a way to get a guy with his talent on the field (maybe as a receiver/tight end??).

Just thought that comment was not very great, but whatever. Bo being named the starter does not mean the story has to end for JG. JG can still get an opportunity to regain the opportunity, even so, I hope he learns as much as he can and can be successful here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidiAU 1,270 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 As the VP of the Joey Fan club, I accept this. I’m thrilled for Bo (I bet his dad is soooooooo happy), but do think Joey will be used more than we think. WAR EAGLE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCTiger2011 1,282 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I get the "let's be patient/supportive of Bo's mistakes" sentiment trickling in here and agree with it insomuch as I would with any QB, freshman to senior who is bound to have moments of struggle over the course of a season. I don't think he should be given any extra understanding just because he's a true freshman. True freshmen the last decade have shown they're more than capable of leading teams to championships, and Bo just won what many have called the toughest QB competition Auburn has had in a long time. Him coming out on top means he's a worthy QB1, regardless of age, and his talent/rise to this role should be above the "well, he is still learning..." crutch when/if he struggles. Gus thinks he's found the guy who gives him the best shot at a championship. Let's hope he's right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeRocket 410 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Welp, I was wrong. I still think JG is a better choice for CGM's offense. That is especially true given all of the reports of drops from the receiver's and the number of that group that are coming back from injuries. Anyway, JG just became the best quarterback on the team, without question. The number two guy always is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
