Its losing two game to end the season and dropping a road game to an LSU team we had no business losing to that makes it seem like a failure to some.
I wouldn’t call it a failure, but I also wouldn’t call it a success.

we were ranked 2nd in the country at the end of the regular season playing arguably the hardest schedule in the country

while the SECCG sucked, let's not act as if last year was a failure



It wasn't at all. I agree. Plus we may be the only team to ever beat two #1 teams back to back weeks.

I understand the need to get better, be better and expect better but at some point, you have to know the reality of things. That reality is we are not going to recruit at Bama's level and not UGA's right now. Not consistently. You guys cant start crying everything one of them gets a recruit. Its going to happen

All of this except the can't start crying part. Some came out of the womb crying every time Bama or UGA got a commit.

UGA is playing for keeps. I can hear bowl cut now, “We all know you are going to Bama, but let’s stick it to AU and you tell everyone they are now 3rd. Oh, and here’s a $500 gas card, and $100 gift card to Longhorns.”

It was the 9th best season in Auburn football over the last 50 years. Let that sink in.

. As a senior manager, I have to evaluate performance and results.

Then you should also know the review is not complete until the end and definitely not somewhere the middle. You'd also know that any of these tallies are premature and just pissing contests at the moment...

* since these kids still have their senior years to go
* so these grades are tentatively ratings made on only 3/4 quarters of what they will have achieved
* and no one is signing anything until some date in February - and only after each college, coach, and team has show what it's like this year.

It like herding cats at the moment and guessing which one will catch mice for you or just end up turning around and running the other way. As for problems you can also find them in Senior Management.

Interesting stuff from Keef.

With Nix and Sandberg on board AU may take a raw guy in 2020 with a lot of upside. Name to watch is Robby Ashford from Hoover. He already holds a baseball scholly from AU.

AU continues to talk with and evaluate 3* RB Tahj Gary from ATL. He plays at Woodward which produced UGA RB Elijah Holyfield. One high school coach said "Gary is a more natural runner and catches the ball better but Holyfield was a little bigger and faster". Belief is MSU is about to offer Gary.

Derrick Hall and Colby Wooden Keef is keeping his projections to AU

I think I'd probably prefer Jamontez Woods, but i'd be fine with Gary. He is a little bowling ball. Has a little Dyer in him. Short legs and stiff hips, but hits the hole hard.

Isn't he already on top of our board at QB?

That would be great, but can AU actually develop a raw QB?

We already have a plethora of those guys - Gatewood and Willis - do we really need any more?

With the new transfer rule who knows?

Imagine it'll go both ways, but if would seem more likely guys with talent would go to where there was need, as opposed to staying where there's an abundance. And QB is certainly a harder spot to fill on the fly. Would you stay put knowing you could start for a less elite team? When it's obvious you'll never see the field? ... time will tell.

Yet to be seen from the high-school level.
