re: Calzada is a major upgrade over Finley

You've attacked several of us in the last 24 hours because we aren't sucking the Nix dick.

Well if you hated on Bo (Auburn family) just to accept Calzada, you are wrong and in the wrong..


Sucks, but true. That must be embarrassing.

I was a Gatewood fan while everyone else liked Bo

in retrospect, not exactly a ringing endorsement of your QB evaluation skills

But I have said in the last 24 hours that if he did leave because of fan criticism then he doesn't belong in the SEC and he must have some pretty thin skin.

So be it. I wouldn’t have played for Auburn either. Roster is weak and the fan’s minds are already made up that Bo was just a Gus fixture that’s holding back the program.

Since Zach committed? I feel like it has been a long melt since the Iron Bowl.

Narrator: It has.

But I’m uncomfortable with our roster and trajectory. This pre melt with infrequent short-lived breaks of hopium will soon readjust to status quo and I’ll be settled in.

1h Opposing coaches use the rampant negativity of Auburn fans to recruit against US Per an article from Phillip Marshall on 247sports:

l asked a former Auburn coach who is now with another program if they thought rampant negativity affected recruiting. He did not hesitate. "I can't tell you how many times I've been in a kid's home and his mother has brought out copies others have sent her of that stuff, mostly off Twitter," the coach said. "It's a big problem at Auburn, more than anywhere else I have seen. It straight up cost us recruits. (Opponents) are not only aware of it, they look for it." In case anyone thought the constant toxicity on Auburn social media wasn't actually a problem, it appears it is. We really need to do better if we want to actually help our team out.

So, apparently now it’s not only affecting 5* players It’s affecting our recruiting efforts. Even worse than I thought.

Reread that list of grievances I made about our football program.
The constant calls for firings
The lack of appreciation for student athletes that chose to play for Auburn

Auburn fans and fanboy boosters need to cool it for a while.

It happens EVERYWHERE.

The biggest issue our fans have is that we don't have realistic expectations.

Bama fans, LSU fans, UGA fans are every bit as caustic as Auburn fans.

Nothing you say or do is going to change that.

Yawn. Same shite happens everywhere

Auburn leads the nation in dead money and constant calls for firing aren’t letting up.

And not everywhere runs off one of the best performing offensive members, 3 generation legacy to boot

Auburn is a unique dumpster fire.

Bo might’ve been a bust but apparently it’s going to take signing 3 transfers to fill his role when he could’ve easily put up decent numbers at his own incremental degree of improvement. Makes you wonder why we couldn’t just put up with a decent season and move on the right way.

Holding Bo to his recruiting rank or initial hype doesn’t seem fair at all either
