I cannot remember who it was, but an AU fan was telling me how Muschamp did no good to AU's secondary and only hurt it when he was there.

P.S. Thanks for Marcus Roberson. He balled out last night and started


I loved Muschamp. He was my first choice to be our HC after we fired Tubbs (or made him resign, whichever one).

We needed Marcus Roberson last night. However, our coaches are fricking stuck on playing Chris Davis and Ryan White when they haven't shown they can cover anything.

It's so frustrating.

I was talking about the secondary. And so were you.

But my point still applies. You guys just don't have the talent that the elite of the SEC does. Plain and simple.

Roberson will be a 1st rounder IMO. Length, speed, cover skills, and tackles very well in space.

Because, from everything I have seen, he doesn't run it. He lets his assistants do their jobs, Just my opinion.



He gives assistants a lot of freedom, but I think it's time for Roof to go.

LOL our defense was awesome under Muschamp unless he played his alma mater.

BS. The talent is there. A CB can't do anything playing 10 yds off the WR.

Agreed

His latest comment:

quote:

"I'd much rather be sitting here 1-0 and talking about what we need to do to get better, as opposed to 0-1 saying we played a great game," Roof said. "But (the performance) was not acceptable and we're going to get it fixed. There are no excuses."


lulz

I am tired of hearing that same shite

If State pounds us to pulp, he's gone, IMO

I don't think they were given the opportunity to cover anything. The problem I saw Saturday was people being out of position or playing too far off the ball. The sunshine pumpers blame it on youth. I blame it on Roof/Chiz.

Gene Chizik is your problem, not Ted Roof. Other than '04 Auburn, where has he had a defense that was any good at stopping teams from scoring? Even at Texas in 2005 his defenses had trouble stopping people. The offense, not the defense, was the strength on that team as well.

Right, you've been looking for reasons to bag on Chizik

He lets Roof run the defense, just like he lets Malzahn run the offense

Like Ross said, he gives them freedom

He just needs to figure out that it's time for Roof to go. BTW, when has Roof actually been decent as a DC?

Classic Shula syndrome.

"Nawwww... talent ain't the reason we shite the bed."

Yes, it is a lack of talent. You note that they give the WR a 10 yard cushion -- and that's true. But why are they giving a cushion? BECAUSE THEY CAN'T frickING COVER ANYBODY.

I know who we played. I'm going by all the video I've seen in practice and the 1st game, and making a prediction. He reminds me of dre kirkpatrick. You can tell how good a CB is against anyone really.
