he was a HC in one and most have figured his O out since then wouldn't you say. He has to have a very unique QB and those don't grow on trees. It is my opinion and I am friends with a lot of AU faithful and they want Gus gone.

We have a new OC, new QB in Jarrett Stidham, a bunch of talented WR's( thanks again, Dameyune Craig), a new perspective on the TE position, and the same 230 pound RB that seeks to run roughshod over helpless DB's.

Nobody knows what our offense will look like.

I agree but you have meddling Gus and I am fairly confident in saying he wont let your new OC have complete control. With Bama for instance it is the NS offense and the new OC will have to adapt to that and bring in his own set of nuances. Unlike what Bear did when he went to the wishbone from a more pro set O. I seriously doubt Gus is going to completely go away in what he believes.

His Achilles heel is his stubbornness and personal inclination to a gimmicky offense. I do believe Gus is willing to let go now though. I think he realizes that being able to adapt as HC is equally just as important as the quality of the players that are playing for him.

Yes, he made it to the game and came 13 seconds short of winning an NC. I believe he can get there again.

Absolutely. Someone has to win that contest every fourth of July. Might as well be Bert.

Football: yea duh

Basketball: No but just because we are the have nots in this sport. Get me to the Sweet 16 and I'll name a child after you Avery.

Baseball: frick it's been so long since I felt like we were worth a damn... I don't know

Yes. The talent will always be there and the assistants are top notch. O just needs to not get in the way

Football: Hell no, I'll be surprised if fatass ever wins 9 games.

Basketball: It's unlikely, but possible with the crazy amount of talent coming in. All about match ups in the NCAA tourney.

Baseball: possible, but unlikely.

Track: Hell yea

Nobody would blame Freeze for leaving that sinking ship of a program. He could do a lot better somewhere else.

You don't have a team quit on him the way they did last year and get it back.
He will be looking for a job. Depending on what happens with the NCAA, he may have trouble finding one.

Maybe MA, since his recruiting is on the upswing for 2018 and '19 classes. I hope he makes it that long.


You have the fan support. The day you beat SC, the special kid at Arbys on Joyce was super excited, and it was all he could talk about.

As a Falcons fan,


My condolences.

The good thing about the SEC is that if you get to the SECCG, you have a shot. I am not sure Malzahn will get back to a championship game, but I can see how it could happen.

I would think GA, Fl, LSU also are in a position to have a realistic shot. But as GA demonstrates, it takes some luck to go your way to make it and win a national title.
