These are the type of games that lead to severe case of Gus stockholm syndrome for a lot of our fan base. All it takes is a convincing win vs a terrible team to reel them back in..............

Can you take a minute and research a little on all of Kirby & Nick's transfer QB's, did any of them leave mid-season and did any of them have a QB in front of them that was producing at about the same rate and consistency that Bo Nix is currently producing? Perhaps in the cases of the transfers mentioned, there were great signing classes....and one then stepped up to be elite. At that point, others left.

Dan-0 479 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I am not bashing Bo, but in three big games this year, OR, FL, & LSU, he has shown he was not ready to be QB1. He should have been pulled at halftime at FL, maybe even Oregon since he went 13-31 in passing completion in that game. Then we let him have a few good games against sub-par defenses and everybody thinks all is well- until we faced LSU and we see, once again, how he performs against top-tier defenses. Joey is watching all this on the sidelines. He knows Bo is struggling and he deserves a chance, doesn´t the whole team know it as well? Would Joey have done any better than Bo? We´ll never know now, will we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,670 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I’d like to keep Dillingham too, I don’t think the issues Bo has had at QB are mainly things he can work out at this time. Kid needs to be sat down and have his mental clock/consistency tweaked. Those aren’t things that can be managed with him also starting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we’ve definitely seen his ceiling in offensive creativity. It took him having a guy that couldn’t hit anything else he likes to run for him to decide “man, we gotta run slants and crossing routes huh?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,148 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Unless Auburn beats either Ga or bama with Joey leaving like this. I believe Gus is gone. It is one thing to wait till end of the season and leave for a better opportunity but leaving like this means he was pissed off. This is a kid who signed early had many opportunities to not sign with Auburn Red shirted and handled it well when Bo beat him for starter. This young man has shown a lot of class. I think he is making a statement by leaving like this. I think he is saying you lied to me so HASTA LA VISTA BABY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburnfan91 1,407 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Keep in mind that once again the coaches wasted another player's year of eligibility. Last year it was Asa Martin and now it's Gatewood. They've wasted Gatewood's Sophomore season by playing him in more than 4 games even though Gus had no plans on actually giving him any meaningful playing time. The more I think about it the more irritated I get about it. Dabo Swinney only let Kelly Bryant play in 4 games in 2018 and saved Bryant's eligibility to play in 2019. Wouldn't it have been nice of Gus to tell Gatewood after the Texas A&M game that unless Nix gets hurt that he doesn't have any plans on using him more than for some redzone packages and to tell him if he wants to transfer or start looking elsewhere that it would be ok. Instead Gus told Gatewood that he planned on using him more in the 2nd half of the season after he's already played in more than 4 games. Then against LSU, Gatewood only came in for one play. That was probably the last straw for Gatewood and now he's left the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
