re: Auburn depth chart released

That's what I was getting at basically. I don't know enough about the other guys. Wasn't Bell a starter for a while?

Nosa Eguae has started 23 consecutive games, he is No. 3 behind Dee Ford and Craig Sanders.--------------------
That is shocking...

No it's not.

I have NEVER understood why some think Eguae was somehow going to automatically start this year or that he even earned that distinction. Did some of you watch our defense last year? Eguae did a decent job at times, but when teams ran to his side (and to Lemonier's side, too, to be fair), Eguae got squashed. He also generates very little pass rush, as evidenced by his ZERO sacks last year.

Eguae has been playing because we haven't had anybody else the last two years opposite Lemonier, and Ford's injury last year just magnified the problem. I haven't been impressed with Eguae at all the last two years. I understand 2010 with it being his first year as a starter, but he should've been A LOT more productive last year in his second year as a starter, and he wasn't.

Mediocre is mediocre, and that's what Eguae is. I'm glad VanGorder saw it, too.
