Texan4Auburn 1,626 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Good interview. No Michigan, not suprising and Tubs mentions what has always been known. Home and homes for southern teams against the Big 10 are rare things. Gibbs was actually Tubervilles first choice over Chizik but Gibbs wanted to do the pro thing at the time. Thought the comments on team players was interesting. That players can go to coach and say hey, he isn't a team player he needs to hit the highway. Looking forward to this fall, should be a fun one.

PChamp119 96 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I was waiting on Finebaum, but he didn't get on the show in time for me to listen. But I did catch comments from Jocks... apparently he expects Tre to carry the ball 20-25 times per game and is taking him off special teams. I guess he was on the show with Vince Young? Odd....

AUesquire 1 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Great interview. It was nice to have some "Quality" entertainment on Finebaum for once. I'm so sick of Team Cotrell I could I did note that when asked about Tre, he said, "Well, he's our starting tailback...right now." He really sang Tre's praises and commented again on his balance and some of the incredible things he does. I did get the impression; however, that he's going to be pushed for the starting position. CTT is always going to tell it like it is and represent this University with class. He sure brought the level of the Findscum program up about 20 notches yesterday.

Raven_tiger 5 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Gibbs was actually Tubervilles first choice over Chizik but Gibbs wanted to do the pro thing at the time. 170520[/snapback] Right... And Nall was actually selected as OC so that we would appreciate Borges more once he was hired. This is a comment that Tubby could have kept to himself and not looked so petty. Remember Tubby's comments, about Chizik, after Chizik left AU for UT. The rift between Chizik and Tubby must have been deep at the end of Chizik's tenure.

TitanTiger 20,510 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Well, Chizik started that verbal jousting with his comments about Mack Brown versus CTT (implied) regarding assistant moving on to be head coaches. Chizik could have kept that to himself as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigermike 3,053 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Did I hear CTT correctly saying that Ronnie Brown has been working out in Auburn and was up to 240 - 245 lbs??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCs see the rest of the field too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUBS COMPARED RB AT 240 TO R.WILLIAMS AT 210. HE SAID IT WOULD TAKE RW A YEAR TO GET HIS WEIGHT UP EVEN CLOSE TO THAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUesquire 1 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I'm in agreement that Bowden is a joke when it comes to discipline. Too many incidents over too many years. I do have to say that Dye had a little of that pain theory in him when it came to discipline. It was legendary how many stairs at the Hare some players had to run. Anyone recall Dye's "Suspension" of Jeff Burger? I wonder how that would play these days and what kind of media attention it would get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season Dayne dropped ~ 20 lbs and was a much better back. RB's size AND quickness/speed are what made him a #2 draft pick. Good blocking skills and soft hands didn't hurt either.

He has worked hard in the weight room and has not been eating a triple cheese burger at Wendy's three times a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, if Tuberville was on that level then he would have taken his shots at OU, the media, and the system during the halftime interview of the Orange Bowl when he had the chance. I can't remember what he said when Chizik left, I don't doubt there is a rift either, but I doubt it matters 7 months later where everyone has moved on.
