We were in the 70s Never said he was the beacon of light. I've laid it out pretty clearly why I think Bo wills start and a lot of it has to do with when Finely might get here, limited time with coaches, limited practices, etc. There is a lot more to it than Bo being better than the past. Better doesn't mean amazing. What's more, I've been extremely high on Finely. I think he has an elite skill set, but he's young and makes bad decisions. He's thrown a lot of picks and even did so in their spring game, which is why he was 3rd on the DC. So let him learn how to make good decisions vs starting this year. I've even stated Finely has an even better starting in '22 if both are still here. Unless they are elite talents, I don't think many QBs should start as a Fr/Soph. Bo certainly shouldn't have and Finely shouldn't have last year. IMO if Finley is here and listed as #2 on DC, DD goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,813 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Maybe I'm just getting old and irritable, and maybe it's because I don't understand why we have a separate TJ thread (a guy who isn't an Auburn player), but why does this guy keep on spelling it like "Finely" that has to bother someone else.

It gave me flashbacks to when Alabama fans were doing what they could for Auburn to keep Malzahn. Same. I just look at the names that were Qbs under him and can't help but be impressed. I hate to say this but I almost hope Harsin would pull a Gus and call plays if the offense was really going poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe TJ's biggest issue is decision making and throwing Picks. That's why he was 3rd after the LSU Spring game where he went 10/18 and two INTs. Guy throws a lot of interceptions. That is age and experience. Decision making will get better over time and start to match the elite physical skill set he has. That is why I'm really high on him long term and want him on our roster. I don't think stats tell much of a story as some folk, but why did you leave these out? QB1 - 17-21 265 2TD 1 int QB2 - 24-47 272 1 TD 3 int Again, you pick and choose what fit's your narrative it seems. It's ok. Most media outlets do the same.

I guess the South Carolina game and another one Max started? If so, one seems like an outlier and one was a trend. 3.5 games and he had 6 turnovers. That happens with young QBs. He's got talent, just needs to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't the best case be to have the best player here to play the QB position ? I say best case because if he wins the job I'm betting we end up with TJ and the other guys that are not ready to play or just not the talent we are looking for in the SEC (unless someone really surprises us). Best case is Bo is the best QB for us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUCiv explains his reason pretty plainly. If I read him correctly we have to have space between high calibre QBs to keep them from transferring. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but if *both* are potentially really good players, if the JR loses out to the So, the JR is gone (transfer portal). The other way around, Finley could play a few games, RS, and have two years left as a starter. This is honestly why I was hoping to see Gatewood pull ahead of Bo. Bo could have RS'd and put enough buffer between him and Joey to make waiting his turn reasonable. You win - im talking more about spacing the guys out and having good talent in the event Bo gets hurt and having the next man up when he leaves.
