When was the last time our program had an identity? This past season was a glaring result of a HC and staff whose main focus was signing guys for rankings and not concerned with what type of locker room presence they brought with them.

It sucks losing some of these guys but you cannot have a locker room full of guys who don’t give a shite about the university.

I think this is always the talking point when shite goes south. I dont believe any of that BS. Guys were brought in and according to the info we had, they were the right guys. We were all celebrating every single one of them.


Now that they failed and shite went south, we say we were just stacking the starrs. Same shite happened with Gus's classes didnt work out.


Not meant for you personally either. IT is just a talking point that is ridiculous. Why cant we just be truthful? We brought the guys in, we thought they were going to be a great mesh but they were not. Every single one of them was celebrated last year.


This is a result of coaching, players not developing and just being a bad progream. Hugh bought the right players. Just nothing happened after that.


None of them give a shite about the school. Those days are gone/. We can not have it both ways. When you get hired hands, you need to get your moneys worth out of them. We didnt. Its not the same as many of us grewup with or want. Its a different game my friend. And our expectations need to change with it.


And we had a idenity in 2017 and some in 2019.. Since then, its been this new game that is a different animal.

Maybe we dont need 20 bc Golesh's USF might not have been as good as Cig's JMU but he's got a war chest that Cig didn't have. Regardless we need all the best guys from USF


Yeah, 20 would be super excessive, but there is nothing wrong with taking the best guys from USF as transfers. Take Brown and three WR, and 5-6 more and that's fine. As long as we are getting top tier transfers elsewhere that works pretty well, particularly on the OL

The last time I remember Auburn having a true identity was 2010. Everybody knew what we had and what we were gonna do after about game 2-3 and they couldn’t stop it anyway. I could make the argument for 2013 as well but it was a little more by committee with mason and Marshall.

Not 2013? What about 2017?


Edit did not see 2013 comment.

Get the big guys outta the way early too. Then let the skill guys then defense fall in place.

I’m sorry but 2013 was more identity than 2010. Hell, we ran 3 plays on offense.

There were some other years after that where we had a true identity. But it’s been so long and you’ve been doing so much the last five years that you just don’t remember. And that is understandable.

2013 was peak point in life. Marshall was a wizard and expectations were low, but week by week it became more obvious how good they were. I felt like they were destined to Win the NC by end of the year. Gosh, Winston is still my top 5 most disliked athletes because all of the miracles that season for Auburn it should have been capped with a Championship

I give Marshall the credit but Tre Mason was magic in 2013. Im not sure Auburn has had that good of a back in 40 years.

Neither of these guys have seasons like they had without Greg Robinson. He was the single most important player on that team. He didn't deliver blocks, he plowed through lines and created holes you could drive a truck through.

Maybe Golesh is thinking take 2m from deuce and 2m from Coleman and out it towards the J. Smith. That's what I imagine Coleman could be with his own effort

Jay Jacobs would have wrote Golesh a blank check and said go get them mitts.
