so now Dye is pulling the strings? Lowder was the sole reason that Bowden was ushered out and I am pretty sure Dye had nothing to do with Tubbs either.

Secondly, saying that Auburn gets a Rivals bump is comical and to say that Colemon shouldn't have been bumped is ludicrous. The kid had cancer for a year after he graduated. The fact that he is back to playing at all shows what kind of heart the kid has.

I hear ya man. I don't even think it was people in this thread that were saying he was a Plan A, because this thread is where the good AU posters post haha. I just remember arguing to many on the SECR that he wasn't the #1 option because of what you stated.



I got fricking destroyed on AUC for saying that Loeffler was an underwhelming hire. We waited a long time for an OC and came up with a guy with almost no experience at play calling and has a name in certain circles due to some quarterbacks that he worked with in the past.

That said, shite on him on you want. If Frazier was completing some passes and getting a couple guys out of the box then our whole offense would have looked different. I am not sure if Frazier just has no vision of the field or if the receivers are so fricking bad that they can't manage to get open. The thing I thought was odd was that all of Banks' picks Saturday weren't thrown to Blake. That means that their number 2 corner locked down our top receiver.

I think we have an entrenched class this year. there are a few that might waver but I think we hold onto Liner, Foster and Lawson with JJ on the offensive side. If we can't turn this year around, next year's class is going to be a rough one.

Malzahn had recruited Frazier since he was in the eigth grade. He had played in that offense since then


Which is the problem. Every since he was in middle school he has been told by the coaches on the sideline where to throw the ball. He has never had to make a read in his life. Now he is being asked to do it against SEC defenses. IMO it is too much for him. And his performance Saturday proved that he is also mentally weak. Its a bad combo.

Do you think you guys will keep Montravius Adams on the probably commits' list? Or do you think Clemson will get him or him heat up on other teams? Would love to get him

Uhhh... the second pick was definitely thrown to Blake. Lutz was wide open in the flat and Frazier didn't even look at him.

I think the 3rd one was too but can't find any video of it.

You won't get any argument from me on that.

What confuses me is, if there was "no separation" between KF and CM until the week before the Clemson game, why not give Clint a shot in the 4th quarter, when it was obvious to everybody that KF wasn't on his game. It's lke CGC threw in the towel going into the last quarter. I thought you're supposed to do what you can to try and win the game.

Because Clint's shoulder is still hurt. Do you really think that Chizik was telling the media the truth.

Orlando Brown is HUGE & has a great pedigree, but can he play?

That hasn't seemed to stop our coaches from recruiting player in the past (given the current roster)

At this point if we can hold on to Lawson, Liner, Johnson, and Foster (Thank God he got tatted up) I think anyone else is just a bonus

Who cares. I want him simply so he can be the first guy off the bus.

Montravius Adams nugget

Started by: Keith Niebuhr

Will be at the FSU-Clemson game in Tally, he told our FSU site's Tom Loy. Montravius will be on an OV to Michigan State this weekend. I will be at his game Friday night to get you all some info. To me, it's clear AU is the team to beat right now. That's based on talking to him, to his coach and to other top prospects. Does that mean he ends up there? Time will tell.
