Has the fact that LT and Steele's apparent tight relationship been overlooked? Has anyone thought LT might be responsible for putting Steele on Malzahn's radar?


When I first heard that we were hiring Steele, I immediately thought this. Steele and Thompson have been good friends for a while and both left Alabama at the same time. Right now it's about keeping the same scheme and recruiting more defensive talent, which Steele fits the bill for both. Keeping Thompson is also extremely important. Steele is a 4-3 guy, but he's also implemented 3-4 schemes which is good considering we played odd front a little this season.

I'd say it's probably the most important aspect as far as recruiting goes. AU would do well to give him a raise on that fact alone.

Even in FCS games, we're giving up 30+ points sometimes and it's frustrating.


Since Tubbs left, the only FCS school to score 30+ on AU was 2009 Furman. We were winning 42-3 at halftime and our starters were taken out for the second half


But facts aren't important or anything cause #FireJJ

Wait a second... I just want to check and verify here...

Wasn't Lance Thompson the guy who was coaching LBs for this defense all through those bad games in 2015?

Didn't him or his dad tell Auburn to look at Chris Davis? Might actually be a good thought? Would hate him near lbs

Somebody needs to tell Gus being able to coach your position is just as important, if not more, as recruiting.

He is probably jaded because he wanted to DC position at AU.

This is very disappointing. I want to believe Gus knows what he's doing, but first T-Rob and now this.

Gus doesn't have a clue.

We could have promoted LT

Instead we have paid 4 mil, 3hr contract and bought some buyout for steele

This administration and staff is a joke
