Can someone just tell him to shut up, I mean really why give the media something to write about. They focus on all things negative about AU as it is.

Weagle as bad as it is for anonymous posters to rag on some players. It pales in comparison to a coach whose name is associated with AU by his name on our field and widely accpted he has influence in our program true or not.
It is really not a very good thing for him to be calling them out in public. Especially when you look at the great strides this team has taken this year. Its just bad on so many different levels.

I thought the whole team quit. But I did not call them cowards.
Semantics.
I'm absolutely sure Dye wasn't referring to hand-to-hand combat in the Death Pits of Bwizibwera where no quarter is offered unto death.
Maybe y'all were just confused and thought that that's what he was talking about.

I have it on good authority that Dye went and apologized to said QB's so you hypocrites can go back to dogging players now.
Nah, they'll just find something else to piss on Dye about when the media serves up the bait.

I'm not the one criticizing Dye about calling out the shite-show 2012 team.

We get it, you love Pat Dye and he can do no wrong, and those that criticize his comments are hypocrites and are showing a double standard. It is noted.

With everything said. It looks as if Dye has made his apologies in private anyway.
@AUQBDad: Coach Dye is a great man. Forgiveness will never be withheld when sought in earnest. I've needed many second chances. Everyone move on.
I'm on my phone so I'm not going to wuote it.

but that time has long since been gone
The solid foundation of the program, through an idiot like Bowden, a narcissist like Tuberville, and a well-intended disaster like Chizik, was ALL because of the foundation that Dye built and left to the future.
You may not see it. You may even choose not to recognize it. But its still his legacy and there's not a damned thing you can do about it. (But maybe deny it agin... and agin... and agin... )

One thing I'm certain of, "champions" is just coach speak.

I never said it wasn't wrong.
It's just not that big of a fricking deal. The 2012 team was a shite-show I spent $6000+ dollars on (except, as I have repeatedly stated, Mason, Wallace, and Uzomah).
The players on that team have by and large grown up and are fulfilling their potential now. FANTASTIC. Good for us. Even BETTER for them.
But the present fulfillment of that potential doesn't mean the shite show never existed. There has never been an Auburn team I wouldn't defend no matter what in some manner or form. The only defense I can ever come up for the 2012 shite show always comes out "Mason, Wallace, Uzomah".
Dye came from an era where you played with no face mask, didn't live in fancy dorm rooms, didn't get a full training table, didn't have access to top notch national-level facilities, played hurt, and played both ways. I have no doubt he looked at that 2012 team and had an honest VALID judgement of "What a bunch of pussies."
Maybe that's it? Maybe instead of "cowards", you would have preferred "pussies"?

I don't know about you old man, but I always will prefer pussy over cowards any day of my life.

Yeah, one of many reasons.
But I've shelled out the money for almost 30 years now and there's been a few bad teams in that time. And I've never complained.
Only ONE shite show though.

Pat makes several public appearances every year at Auburn. If you were so inclined to let him know how you feel you have plenty of chances.

TUBS????
You are kidding, right? He was a FRAUD! Take away GREAT ASSISTANTS (Petrino, Muschamp, Chizik) and he was NOTHING! He got kicked around the Big 12 and bolted for an even EASIER gig at Cincy. If he was a GREAT COACH he should go undefeated every year with Cincy's horrible schedule. He was also involved of scamming people out of money in a "hedge fund."
