Look at Apple's history of iPhone releases. It's pretty easy to tell when the next iPhone will come out (early Fall), and what features you can expect to be improved.

What's your current phone contract situation like? If you have the iPhone 6 or 6+, I'd wait for the 7's release next fall (skip the 6S).

Keep your current iPhone in good shape, and you can trade it in to get a solid amount off your new iPhone now that the phone companies are charging full-price. Another benefit of waiting for the 7 is Apple might make the base storage 32GB instead of 16GB. 16GB doesn't go far at all. Many speculated they might up it to 32GB for the 6S, but they didn't/

Roc has had his shot and won't quit fumbling. That is on him not the coaches.

Jovon is a head case.

Stanton and Stevens have an opportunity to get catches with Duke dismissed. Why would they want to leave now.

Mark my words, If any of those guys leave, they will be a failure in football. Quitters do not succeed when adversity strikes.

Christ, can we worry about this after the season?

These are young players, many of whom have probably not had to suffer bad seasons before. Hopefully they learn to focus on being better at their respective positions.

My feelings in this situation can be summed up best by a Brooke Shields quote believe it or not..

"Someone said adversity builds character, but someone else said adversity reveals character. I'm pleasantly surprised with my resilience. I persevere, and not just blindly. I take the best, get rid of the rest, and move on, realizing that you can make a choice to take the good."

The NFL finds you if you have the talent. How else do you explain an NFL roster? I always get a kick out of a kid going to Bama or somewhere like that saying its a business decision to get to the league. The reality is, if you can play, it doesn't matter where you go.

We just need to drop all this sappy bullshite. This is football at a prominent program - Auburn will be alright whether any specific player wants to be a part of it or not.

As much as it sucks to deal with, if they don't want to be here because their feelings got hurt due to PT or they have a beef with the coaches then they can take their shite and kick rocks, and that goes for everybody from 5 stars to no stars as far as I'm concerned. Give the opportunity to somebody else that wants a chance to contribute and do what they are asked. This is supposed to be a team, not a reality show.

You are going ot have to get good coaching eventually if you want to make it in the NFL. If you get it in college, you don't have to waste a few years learning in the league.

I don't give a shite who it is, if they don't want to be a part of Auburn they can frick off. How many five stars did Boom have on D the last time he was here? How many five stars on Offense in 2010 or 13? Frick kids these days things in sports are earned nothing given. Participation trophies ruinning these frickers.

Honestly, if they want to leave, I hope they do. Maybe we need to stop recruiting weak people.



I've been hesitant to say this, but its been on my mind:

I really think the 4-5* we are recruiting have the attitude they are doing us a favor by signing. That's a likely explanation for how attitude has been piss poor around here through two separate coaching staffs. 2013 was an anomaly because the bad attitudes were kept in check and humbled by 2012.

Some recruits are acting like they signed with us because they either 1) missed out on going somewhere else and are bitter/"big fish small pond" mentality or 2) didn't want to work and thought it would be easier here.

Don't know what the answer to this is, if this is indeed the case.

Winning, and continuing to win. That's why we need Malzahn to build a successful program.

They came here because they wanted to be part of a winning program under a good coaching staff. Like any prominent recruit, they have egos and feel like the expectations they had for themselves and the team aren't being met. Frustrations will inevitably ensue under these circumstances.

You may say we don't need them, but we do to win big in this league. These are young players and we have to hope they can be patient, as difficult as it may seem. I realize this was supposed to be our year, but it hasn't worked out and Malzahn has to find a way to stop the bleeding. We need to win a game that we shouldn't. It's fairly simple.

Sorry dude, but egos that quit after an 8-5 season (and I'd argue there were issues then- that team was better than 8-5) instead of taking it personal and striving for greatness need to frick right off.

They need to be broken down.

*** Receiver Stanton Truitt "did a few things today." He is injured.

*** Linebacker Tre' Williams is also limited. Malzahn says they're being smart with how they handle injured players at practice.
