Pretty epic quotes in there.



LSU......“None of those guys on defense coming back really stuck out to me.”…


Huh? Yeah news flash we return what is arguably the best CB tandem in the league, White and Robinsion. Oh yeah and a LB named Alexander and a DE named Hunter

"As it sits, Alabama might be an eight-win team on paper."


“If Auburn can develop a passing game, they will be probably the best team in the West.”

Boo hoo some anonymous coach who knows infinitely more about football than you said he wasn't impressed.

“They had really young guys on defense, so the biggest deal with them was they weren’t very big and got knocked off the ball up front. Even when they were decent in the secondary, you could run the ball in between the tackles. As long as those guys have stated growing and continue to develop, you won’t be able to do that.”


Yup.

anonymous in this case means the guy writing this article probably made up the majority of these quotes. i have a hard time believing that any coach in the sec is so ill informed as to say the following

quote:

Losing Chad Lindsay is going to hurt because they had depth issues at offensive line. I think they wanted to move Ryan Kelly to left tackle.

My guess on the A&M quotes:

quote:

“They had really young guys on defense, so the biggest deal with them was they weren’t very big and got knocked off the ball up front. Even when they were decent in the secondary, you could run the ball in between the tackles. As long as those guys have stated growing and continue to develop, you won’t be able to do that.”


Either Miles or Saban

quote:

“They’ll be good on defense. Mark Snyder got a lot of flack last year because people put up some points but he’s a good coordinator. He’s going to get those guys in position to make plays.”…


The other one. Whichever one of Miles or Saban didn't say the first quote

quote:

“What’s going to kill them is losing not only Johnny Manziel, but a couple of really good receivers and the Jake Mathews kid.”…


Bielema

quote:

“How well they do as a team depends on how their defense does.”…


Malzahn

quote:

“I don’t know if their offense will have enough firepower – they’ll always be pretty good under Sumlin, but losing a guy like Evans, he was a playmaker. Losing him will really hurt them.”…


Mullen

quote:

“Last year they had a safety that was terrible, defensive line wasn’t good, really nobody on defense. Those studs they had in 2012, four guys that were difference-makers. When those guys left, there was nobody.”


Freeze...still butthurt

quote:

“Sumlin has always been a good recruiter. They’ll get good young players. How soon can they be ready to play is the question? They’ve stockpiled a lot of skill guys and some talented defensive front seven guys the last two years so we’ll see if they can emerge.”…

“Alex Collins is a hard-nosed runner, physical kid. I do really like him. He can get them tough yards and a few scores. But that can’t be your whole offense."


Pretty sure this guy watched one game at most. Collins was everything but hard nosed last year. Williams and Kiero Small were the "tough yards" guys

“Their talent on defense is fantastic, but that talent didn’t always work hard last year. There were a lot of guys who were worried about next-level play instead of worrying about this level of play.”…


That coach is talking about Purifoy and Roberson... Those two just tanked the season after the LSU game.

Most likely none of these quotes come from head coaches.
