Popular Post aubiefifty 16,822 Posted September 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) Bryan Harsin goes on rant after being asked about 'game plan' for TJ Finley/Bo Nix decision Sydney Hunte | 12 hours ago It’s safe to say that Auburn head coach Bryan Harsin will be asked repeatedly this week about whether he’ll start Bo Nix or T.J. Finley at quarterback against LSU on Oct. 2. Nix obviously has experience on his side, but Finley likely has the backing of the fans after his last-minute touchdown drive to help the Tigers hold off upset-minded Georgia State. Plus, he’s familiar with LSU’s tendencies after having played there a season ago. Unsurprisingly, Harsin isn’t about to reveal when he’ll make a decision leading up to the LSU game, much less who it will be. “I don’t have a game plan like that,” he replied when asked by a reporter after the game about a timeline for a decision. “That’s not how it works…and I don’t have to tell anybody what the ‘game plan’ is … [At] the quarterback position, you get yourself ready like everybody else. Bottom line. “I know everybody wants to make a big thing out of that, but that becomes the storyline. The storyline is ‘Get better…every single day moving forward. You’re playing chess, not checkers. Prepare yourself. Have yourself ready. Coaches, get better. Everybody improve every single day. Be 1-0 every day, and then get yourself ready throughout the week so you can go cut it loose on Saturday and play really good football.’ That is the message. Period. “And I’m not getting into all the other stuff, so that’s what they’re going to hear from me, and that’s what I’ll tell you.” Edited September 26, 2021 by aubiefifty 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that qualifies as a "rant". He not singing cumbia by any means, but sounds more like a stern account of facts about how he runs the program. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a video out there and in another thread of it's own that has him answering this question. There is certainly a edge to his voice. He was not happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU_Canoe 230 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) Tough position to be in when you're between a rock and hard place, i.e., Nix and Finley, while under a microscope. I have no doubt he will be asked this week ad nauseum because this is perceived as AU's sports drama. Harsin, welcome to the SEC where this is the air we breathe 24-7.

AU9377 4,977 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 It isn't a reporter's question that will require him to give an explanation. However, there will be calls asking for an explanation. That is just how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMan70 3,277 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I thought he gave the perfect answer with the perfect edge to his voice. He doesn't try to hide his irritation which is, yes, similar to someone else 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the results we're seeing is not necessarily a result of CBH and his vision, but rather its an indictment and revelation of where the previous staff left things. 10 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 4 games in to a new culture, new offense, new defense, new coaching staff, with a roster new to him. It doesn’t happen overnight. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
