Discussion about Auburn starts at the 30:20 time stamp. Lasts about 90 seconds.

Auburn named Greg Brown as McGriff's replacement

Brown is the only coach to have ever coached three Thorpe Award winners during his career. Brown coached Deon Figures at Colorado in 1992, Chris Hudson at Colorado in 1994 and Gerod Holliman at Louisville in 2014, all of whom went on to win the Thorpe, which is awarded annually to the nation's top defensive back.

Off topic but he talked about the run we had when White and Pett were healthy, and what happened when they went down. I think Lanier said it about not recruiting another big back but we need a #2 to run between the tackles. A 230+ guy. KJ did it fine until he got hurt when he was fancy with his footwork. Martin and Barrett (190 lb) are not pounders. Really leaves Miller continuing to physically develop the next few months or else we're at risk imo.

I'm not sold on the secondary as a whole yet.

Harold Joiner?

freak athlete. Looks like tarzan, plays like Jane seems to be the book on him though. Absolutely has the tools to be a great RB though. Just has to develop the mentality. Maybe we'll see that this year on the field.

What you said.

Maybe if Pettway balls out again, assuming our coaches want him at RB, it will convince Pettway a beast can eat in our offense.

Junior Rosegreen level would leave us with half the defense ejected at this point

Was there at that UGA game. I thought the kid was dead on the field.

Rosegreen removed himself from my favorite player list after that HBO special.

Huh? Rosegreen wasn't on that. You thinking of McClover?

Matter of fact Rosegreen called out McClover for his BS and lies

quote:

---

Junior Rosegreen, the guy who nearly killed Reggie Brown, says he was approached by McClover about appearing in the show, but that he ended up cussing out a HBO producer who tried to coax him into an interview.

And here's his actual quote on the matter:

quote:

---

I called him and cussed his (butt) out. He would say, 'I just want to hear Stanley's story.' I said, 'Stanley's story is he's a storyteller. That's his story.' (Walker) tried so hard to get me to say something bad about Auburn. He would say, 'off the record...off the record'. He said that about 10 times. I said, 'Fine. You want me to tell you something off the record? Here you go: Stanley is a damn liar.

Junior Rosegreen, a teammate of McClover's in 2004 who also attended the same high school, said McClover bought the car with Pell Grant money and that it didn't cost $7,000. "That is bogus," said Rosegreen, who called McClover "a damn storyteller
