"Question marks" at Qb, OL, and secondary. Unproven talent at many position, mainly Quarterback
Lack of team identity
Lack of player discipline off the field.
Punishment of good players will not result in being removed from the team, because the team is "like a family" and you dont kick people out of the "family" when they make a mistake
Not one player who has been kicked off the team has been successful at another university or in life
Simms had a great spring, just not during the spring game
Darth vadar was a participating member in the media
SEC schools should play every team in the SEC. Wants to improve the scheduling and wants the playoff committee to choose all the bowl matchups
Nick wasnt offered by Texas and had zero interest or contact with them.
Media has been wrong 18/22 times when choosing the winner of the SEC and has been wrong the past 5 years in a row.

Looks like 'bama fans can't use this against Auburn anymore.
Gonna have to come up with some new material. It was a good run.

This might be true, but what's the point of saying this?

This was the only part of the presser that was kind of shocking to me. It's one of those things that may be true, but I'd probably bite my tongue on blasting kids who were no longer part of the program.

Or walking under yellow tape and a DUI aren't "kick-off the team" type of offenses.

To publically validate his decisions each time he's kicked someone off the team... basically it says "I always fight for a kid if they show ANY sign of hope."

How is it arrogant if it's proven to be true so far?

Agree x 1,000,000
I have no idea why we didn't go to the nine-game schedule.
It feels more like two separate conferences now than one conference.
Makes me

I was talking about the word "family."
Catch up, skipper.

He was talking about the reasons he doesn't like kicking people off the team, because those people don't learn from it.

I think you're confused about the definition of the term "arrogant."

Why does he need to trash those kids for validation from the media? Really, he should be trying to help those kids. He recruited them after all.
