Bo Nix was pulled for TJ because he completed 49% of his passes vs GA State. This was in his 3rd season.

Are you saying upperclassmen don’t have bad games? Matt Corral had a 6 INT game and a 5 INT game in his third season. Stop inventing criteria for your bleeding heart to bitch about. Despite that game he was still our best QB on our team and he would’ve been the best option on our team this year.

We have all the info we need to say Bo is a slot WR.

Bo is gone. In my opinion he was the best QB on the roster and would have been this year if he were still here. He ain’t tho. Time to move on.

Bo will light up the PAC. And no a freshman isn’t going to take his spot out there.

Calzada also was in the same recruiting class as Bo. It’s not like he’s some green QB. He’s been around the same as TJ and Ashford. All have all “practice” to be ready to take on a season of football.

I know he’s not on our team. There are still too many dumbass spoiled brat Auburn fans and they need to be weeded out. More Finley is what the doctor ordered.

Can we focus on important stuff like what “Cam” name each QB gets?

Calzone Cam?
Tall Cam?
BirmingCam?
G Cam?
Ashford and Simpson Cam?
CamFin?
AshCam?


Suggestions?

Your post supported Bo Nix hate as if a 61% completion passer is even a 10th of our problems right now.
no, my post was correcting misstatements of fact. We were not “6-2 and off to a great start against MSU” when Bo got hurt. In fact if memory serves he got hurt on our only TD drive in the 2nd half of that game, which is a testament to his toughness.

Newsflash: our current QBs are much worse than Bo.
I don’t disagree, although the “much” modifier is a matter of opinion.

I was also attempting to explain why we ended up with Calzada (and Ashford) out of the portal as opposed to any “proven” QBs. We were without an OC for a significant period during our search, and there were already rumblings that the program was headed off the cliff. It’s not like Spencer Rattler and Dillon Gabriel were looking us over and saying “yeah, that’s a team that’s going places next year, I wanna be a part of that”.

I’m hoping that someone steps up, but unlike others ITT I won’t pretend that anyone we have would be better than Bo right now. Unfortunately, as Corch says, he gone.

Rocky wasnt picking at you, though I can be dramatic

Jang I am impressed you know its Trinidad AND Tobago, very impressive, and here I thought you were as ignorant about geography as you are football....just kiddin, just kiddin.

I think we are all just frustrated that we may be headed for yet another season where we dont have a reliable QB, at least not yet. Im betting one of them steps up and we have a Jason Campbell senior year type performance, course didnt hurt he had a couple of decent running backs to balance out the attack...

Nix losing at Penn State and at the 12th man and to the eventual national champions. I’m glad you only feel inclined to nitpick Knick knack paddywack bullshite. It suits you

Not according to “stats”. They both are 56% passers and negative rushing yards bros. Nix’s intraconference impact is stronger from both a passer and runner level and he simply turns the ball over lot less.

That’s Harsin’s fault.

Rumors of a possible Brahms injury. Nothing confirmed yet though.

The only people that are ignorant are AUCE and anybody else that thinks Calzone was an upgrade. Don’t make me put you on that list.

He didn’t play yesterday. JGT said it doesn’t sound good.

I didn't say he was a clear upgrade. He has less experience than our ex slot WR. I said I will see how he performs on the field and reevaluate. His ceiling is higher because we know Bos is really low. That doesn't mean after 3 seasons he will have more wins. You are the dumb one who fanboys a sub 60% QB.

You say this while fanboyjng “anybody but Bo”- aka the only quarterbacks in this conversation that finished below 60%

What does this even mean? He’s played in nearly 15 games.

This is some fine logic here. #AUssbackwards

Bo could have been our best option this year, but do you want it to be Harsin’s team or somebody else’s? I can’t speak to the behind the scenes specifics but Bo chose to leave.

I’m glad Gus is no longer here, and switching coaches is always going to be painful. Players are always going to leave. Promises made before can’t be kept any longer.

February was dark times for Auburn. Successful business people often make really bad decisions a short distance from their area of expertise.

The best outcome for Auburn would be that Harsin does well. And IMO, we should all get behind that effort. If he doesn’t, let him go after 3-4 years of solid support. Abandoning him mid year or at the end of this one, after what Gus left us, is just silly.

Someone’s gotta do the Lord’s work. If you seriously think Bo would be 4th on the roster then you might as well be the problem too. Because apparently you only have a problem with me

I really don’t know what you’re saying. Harsin needs to win and his best hand would’ve been Bo. It would’ve been Harsin’s team all along. Are you saying a strong personality that was held over from the previous team couldnt coexist with Harsin?

Do you seriously think we'd have this roster... if Bo was here?
