Stan White A poultry porfessor Auburn Alumni Association BigWig and AUBIE! Can you tell which one I am most excited about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUesquire 1 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Can you get the poultry professor's autograph for me? Nah, you'll probably be too chicken to ask for it. But, it sure would be a feather in your cap if you did. Will there be a lot of chicks at the meeting? Probably just a bunch of old biddies. Don't stay out too late. You be home before the cluck strikes 12:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Known By. Did you miss the name change? Report from Oneonta: Aubie is great with kids, as usual. Pictures will be forthcoming. The Alumni Association BigWig was pushing Alumni Association membership. The poultry professor was funny for a biologist/scientist geek. He is doing research with chickens in conjunction with UAB to model ovarian cancer in women. Pretty high tech stuff, but he kept it low tech for his audience. Pretty good speaker and kept it short. Stan White echoed a lot of things that have been talked about on here ad naseum. Cox's arm is fine, the back-ups are not ready for primetime (yet), CTT is a CEO type coach that has his hand in everything, but lets his coaches coach, strengths are D, wide receiver and O line, we should be good. He talked a lot about leading a charmed life and doing the things he has done. He said that Jim Fyffe's spirit lives on in the booth every fall Saturday. A few interesting comments: Cox is a big, strong kid and Brodie Croyle is slender and lean (for your, Tim!), Tray Blackmon is a stud that will make an impact this year (described by CTT as a defensive Cadillac), talent at TE is insane, Robert Dunn will surprise people, Kenny Irons wears Ronnie's number, looks like Carnell, but does not have his heart (yet), and big Marcus McNeill could outrun Stan...backwards. Also said that all three top DEs would start on any other team in the nation. Overall, a fun evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, a fun evening. 176334[/snapback] I think everybody still hears Jim yelling "touchdown Auburn!!" everytime we score. Intereseting comments on players. I knew Tray was going to be a good one, but with all the LBs we got, it shocking he is going to be in there. He must be the monster as described coming out of HS. Known as headhunter. I bet we see him on a lot on special teams, also, punt team, kickoff team?? Should have told Stan most of the OL when he was playing could have out ran him!!! KI will get the heart soon, I am sure.

sportwareagle 0 Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Great report!!! I can't wait to see Tray Blackmon out there. I expect we'll see another hit like Brandon Jacobs put on that Vanderbilt guy on the kickoff really soon. It will also be nice that we can rotate at the linebacker position even more with Blackmon, Dede, Sears, and of course, the Williams brothers!!!! I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL SEPTEMBER 3RD!!!! WAR DAMN EAGLE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great turnout with about 100 folks, including a bunch of kids. One woman was so excited to see a good group of kids at a function like this. She almost got choked up when she talked about carrying her daughter to events and bringing her up to be an Auburn person. The Depot was almost too small for the turnout.

Guest Tigrinum Major Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 The Depot is the old railroad depot that is located out by the baseball fields on Highway 75. When was the last time you were in town? Not knowing what the landscape was like 23 years ago, the best way I know to describe it as being located on the west side of 75 as you enter town from the south, just past the high school and the football stadium. The city converted the railroad depot into a building where people rent it and hold social events such as this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
