I think I pretty much already did. Why is it that you seemingly refuse to consider injuries? A coach is only as good as their player. Jimmies and Joes matter at least as much and almost surely more than X's and O's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as answer as any. I think Gus has trusted players when he asked "Can you go?" and players being players and wanting in the game they said "Yes coach, I can go." That has been a failing. Hope Gus has learned from it. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The frequent flirtations with the big-time are a testament to the quality of program that he has built. And they make the equally frequent crashes that much more frustrating. It's Richt-era uga amplified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,736 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 In the six full years that Coach Malzahn has been Auburn's head coach, only two teams have won the SEC west. There's UAT at four times and Auburn had done it twice. AU has been in the top ten in the second half of the season five times in Malzahn's seven years. 99% of the teams in college football would die for that, but we have people wanting to fire the coach and people who think some random selection from the open market would do better. The Entitlement Generation is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read this entire thread. By the time you're halfway through, what you have is a mindless pot of random selections. It's a conglomerate of randoms, some of them are a complete joke. " The LBS, second-fiddle-is-where-we-belong generation is not." I don't know anybody like that and haven't seen anybody whose posts would indicate that they are like that.

The Entitlement Generation is amazing. All this is very misleading. In 2016, AU lost 2 of the first 3 games. Took a broken leg play at the goal line from losing to Ole Miss. Hear is something to think about...If Auburn was truly a top ten team during the time that CGM has been the head coach, it wouldn’t have a losing record to LSU, Georgia and a split win/loss with MSU. A loss to Tennessee. During this current run by Alabama, as long as AU is beating the other teams, I think you would see a top ten program and a fan base that would fully be behind its head coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
