This isn't a flame, I'm just for real curious, so curious in fact that my friends call me Whiskers.

I think Auburn will have a really good offense this year, Malzahn is a great offensive coach.

Who will be the QB though?Whoever it is I'm sure they'll probably do well.

Seems to me like Frazier is out, he was pretty terrible last year.

Do you think it will be the Juco guy or Wallace?Jeremy Johnson maybe?


I would've posted this on the Auburn board but I don't have access.

No one knows. Smart money is on Marshall.

My money is on Marshall at this point. I think Kiehl is 3rd string behind Wallace, with Johnson redshirting.

We're heading to the greyhound in Mobile in a few days to see if anyone is interested.

No. Just Frazier and Wallace. And it wasn't pretty.

Marshall will be a really good fit for Malzahn's offense from what I've heard about him.

Nick Marshall should be on campus in July.

Another question, who do you think gets more carries this year, Mason or Payne?

Do you think that one of them will be a 20-25 carry a game guy, or that they will probably share the workload pretty evenly?

That's being kind. I think Frazier sacked himself on multiple occasions

Depends on how quickly he picks the offense up. There will definitely be a learning curve. The two we already have just seem to have a touch of cantgetright.

Share the load until one of those two steps up. Gus' offense has two types of backs and they are one...Grant is the other.

Cam picked it up pretty quickly, not saying that Marshall is on Cam's level, but Marshall seems to be good and probably will be able to learn it in time.

It will be rare for Malzahn to give one back 20-25 carries a game IMO. He likes to keep his guys fresh, so they switch out a lot.

I think Mason and CAP will have similar carries.

Seems like Payne already stepped up pretty well in Spring ball.Not sure how good Mason is but Payne seems to be the real deal

Malzahn will run you to death if you're hot (no homo). He doesn't like to sub when the offense is rolling (see B. Bielema). Therefore the the rbs won't get even carries

Cam was on campus all spring. Even then it took the coaches a few games to figure out what they had with him.

I don't think we have Cam 2.0 on our hands with Marshall, but hopefully someone with accuracy, mobility and good decision making. That combo is deadly in a Malzahn offense.

Mason had an ankle issue that gave the other two more touches.

He ran for 1k last year.
