There has been talk this week in Oxford of Roc transferring out of Auburn after this season. I work with a few guys in the know concerning Oxford athletics. Most of them are Bammers but they always know whats going on with any kid from Oxford.

Is this legit or just bammers being bammers.

Please calm my anxiety.

I mean, what good is a RB that fumbles? Gonna be hard to take snaps away from Barber, IMO.

Really not a big loss if he stays or goes. Probably bull shite though.

If he stops seeing carries then definitely possible especially if Kerryon starts getting more carries. Honestly, if that happens I won't be that upset because it means that Barber kept being awesome & Kerryon stepped up. The talent is there for Roc but you can't play RB if you keep putting ball on ground or get hurt

Kerryon reminds me of Reggie Bush.

Who cares, dude can't hold on to the ball at all and isn't really that great. I called the fumble as soon as they put him in the game.

Size is lacking imo.

I have a feeling they are correct. I feel the same way about the fumbles. I would rather have a dependable back then a flashy back who drops every 10th ball he touches.

He might probably should have been redshirted last year and let Barber play instead

He might be thinking it.

Still, it is early in the season and I am sure he will get more shots.

I agree with the fumbles. He also just hasn't looked that good imo. So far Barber has looked exceptionally better than Roc.

I think Gus named him starter for game one to keep him here.

It is not like he has had a chance.

Doubtful, He will not want to sit a year. He probable knows he is the third best back on the team. He was also embarrassed by starting the Bama game and then being pulled.

I'll believe it when its announced. Otherwise, just bullshite rumor.

But IF it happens to be true? Buh-bye now. If a change of scenery is what it takes to make a RB actually not fumble, best of luck to you in your endeavors.

There's a sure-fire method to avoiding any potential "embarrassments".

Hold on to the fricking ball.

Or if you don't hold on to it at least have the awareness to know you need to get it back.
