I remember this from last year and it was pretty interesting. Here is what they said about us.
The last guy seems like he pays attention the most

quote:
“I didn’t think they were very explosive last year with some of their skill players on the offensive side of the ball.”…
quote:
“The secondary was not really impressive.”…
quote:
“They did have a couple of good defensive linemen, especially Chris Smith, but he’s gone now.”…
quote:
“They will continue to struggle a little bit. They should be better but continuing to struggle.”…
quote:
“Based on what they are doing, I just don’t think they can score enough. It starts with the offense – they are not set up to score a lot of points. It’s ball control, grind it out, I-formation, play-action football.”…
quote:
“Their quarterback is back (Brandon Allen) and they should be better as a result, but I’m not sure if he’s the answer long-term.”…
quote:
“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.”…
quote:
“They have a hard time covering in the secondary. They sort of regressed as the year went on. They were probably better early on because they still had the confidence.”…
quote:
“Keep in mind, Bret didn’t inherit much. The recruiting transition from Petrino leaving to John L. Smith for a year was never going to be smooth. There were guys on that roster they wouldn’t have taken when he was at Wisconsin. So he needs time to get that done. But they need a boost at the skill positions, such as receiver and cornerback. They just don’t have a lot of playmaking there.”…

Ouch. The truth hurts however. Our roster was garbage for he most part last year. Some of them were/ are great kids but that doesn't mean they should be playing at this level.

This one bugs me. So they're saying we don't have any other offensive weapons other than Alex Collins?
I hope to hell that's an Auburn coach that completely overlooked JWill and Korliss.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if the last guy was Spurrier.

Looks like most of the coaches also post on the the Rant.
Also:
This is college football...players play for 4 years. No one is the 'long-term' solution.

A lot of people equate long term with > 1 year and short term < 1 year.

These comments are most likely made by assistant coaches and not head coaches.
