re: Transfer players impact on CFB

Don't sprain an ankle jumping off that high horse.

Your posts exemplifies the fact that it kills you (and most UGag fans I know) that despite competing against the best program in college football in the toughest division, little ol' Auburn has won 2 SEC rings and a natty while you're division has been complete shite and big bad UGA has won zero and you've been bested by Mizzou. Your opportunities have been vast and your results have been shite.

This is another shining example of UGA, your team, your university,and your fans being all talk and no action. In Texas they'd say "all hat, no cattle".

Keep posting! This is great fodder.

Gus can't scout talent or so than develop it.

Hey, I'm not trying to flame here. I'm genuinely curious about this. I would be interested to know the number of transfers from the other schools compared to Auburn's. It seems that you guys have a bunch. It would seem to speak to Gus's ability (or lack thereof) to develop talent.

Wouldn't you think it would have more to do with recruiting than development? For the same reason Arkansas has so many JUCO players. We've been afforded the luxury of taking transfers from Texas, Baylor, Ohio State, FSU, Ole Miss and Jax State, rather than have to replenish the roster with more JUCOs..

What did they do at Auburn?

Lord only knows

Well, I'm not really sure. Was that a half-assed attempt at a flame?

Between relying heavily on transfers, and an inability to get players into the NFL, it appears to me that Gus just isn't very good at developing talent. 

Again, not trying to flame here, just looking at the numbers. 

Bielema seems to do a pretty good job developing talent. I just wish it would translate to more wins. Hopefully it will this season. Being year 5, he has no excuses anymore.

Players like Nick Marshall debunk your entire theory. He was a great college player but not in the NFL, and a perfect fit for Gus. So, i guess Gus wins more with his undeveloped talent than BB does with his developed talent? That is why i think it has more to do with the talent you have the ability to recruit and land.

UGA fans like this frickchop have to result to the "Better than you" play. I don't give a shite whether we have more or less transfers, or whether they're from this program or that or Whatever. I was merely asking the question about the data and how it compares to other programs and he degenerates it into a personal insult. Every program does what it feels like it needs to to compete. I was asking a simple question.

People go to Auburn and love it, moreso than any school I've ever seen. That threatens some people I guess. I live in Atlanta so I've had to endure a pretty rough decade with the Dawgs but even when you bring it up in conversation and are complimentary of their program, they bristle at Auburn. They are so busy thinking their shite doesn't stink, and they are so worried about impressing that on others. Meanwhile Auburn people just get shite done. That's the difference between the ethos of the 2 schools and their fans.

On the subject of transfers.. i think another QB has decided to transfer from A&M since the start of this thread.

Not sure. It wouldn't be Mond, would it?

I call BS. If true, no way it's Mond or Starkel
