Not normally just figured I'd give you something to think about since you seem so intrigued by what I say.
Also good to see you think your response was funny because it wasn't.

You give a vibe of a man with Asperger’s Syndrome
I therefore will leave you alone from now on because I don’t take pleasure in messing with people dealing with challenging syndromes.
Enjoy the incredible Auburn recruiting season sir

So cute. How sweet of you to think of the people you "feel" are beneath you.
Side bar - PSA - Just seems after a while the regulars would just stop with the challenging me. It does nothing but derail the conversation. I'm as nice as they come until you poke the bear and yes I have a short fuse but hey who knows what kind of crap I could be going through. Not anyone's business anyway. I would help anyone on this board in need, give the shirt off my back for any brother, have had a very blessed life. I just don't play these little internet games. I'm here to have fun, throw some shade on bammer, cheer for my team, and speak about AU anyway I like. Can't handle that then frick off.

The shite Gus pulled off in 2013 wasn’t normal.
It wasnt and it should be recognized by some of the mob here. He took over a totally broken program off its worst season in recent history, brought in a great recruiting class with a transfer QB, put that shite together and was 13 seconds from winning our second natty that he would have been mostly responsible for. Lets be honest, it was his offense, not Chiziks 100th ranked defense that was more responsible for 2010.
Harsin on the other hand did nothing extra in recruiting his first season and is doing very little now. I am surely hoping that he gets some guys to come one way or another. If not, we will fall seriously.
Im willing to give him time for sure. But for now, he needs some momentum. I like him and want to see him get us going.
I wont discuss that "Auburn made Clemson" talk anymore. That one is not worth discussion

Yeah no need. If you want to discuss what will make Auburn, it will take establishing an identity, and showing he can develop players.
Starting now, Harsin cannot hide behind introductory press conferences to avoid criticism. Harsin has to choose what kind of bed he wants to sleep in. He can either get to work and reap the benefits, or end up being a mistake

Been saying it since he was hired and it’s just now setting in for some. You don’t hire a guy like Bryan Harsin to pick up where the last guy left off. You hire a guy like Harsin to build something new.
And folks that are bummed out by how the last staff’s tenure ended aren’t going to be put to ease quickly. I definitely don’t expect everyone to agree with everything the new guy is doing. And I imagine they’ll be really loud as we start feeling the growing pains. Everyone is going to need a little thicker skin

This is nonsense. Harsin brought in the first true OT in forever (Colby Smith) and then immediately upgraded a glaring need in the pass rush with an elite HS recruit (Dylan Brooks) and a sneaky-impressive transfer from a program that knows how to develop players (Eku Leota). The roster needed a RB badly and the 3* that they brought in is already impressing and looks like he could be a steal (already talk of him potentially pushing Shivers, and why do you think Devan Barrett transferred out?). He also landed a JUCO LB that people close to the program are in love with (Joko Willis) - look at out for him.
Then, he came in this season and immediately cleaned up the QB mess by pulling a high-upside transfer with years of eligibility that absolutely would have not come here under Malzahn. Oh, and he also landed a HS kid that has impressed at every camp he has been to, and who legitimately looks like one of the better HS QB's in this class. The QB is the most important position on the field; and for the first time in forever we have a 2-deep and a legitimate QB to push the starter. Who would be Malzahn's QB commit in this class had he not been fired? Better yet, who would be pushing Bo Nix? Cheyil Garnett LOL?
Claiming that he "hasn't done anything" shows a literal lack of understanding of the game of football and how it is played. The work at the QB position alone in recruiting Finley and Geriner is massive. Not only to massively upgrade the current talent level at the position, but to evaluate and then secure a high-end HS recruit who actually fits the system that they plan on running.

Have to give credit where credit is due. Gus is one of the best recruiting head coaches in the country. He will do extremely well at UCF because he will out talent most teams on the schedule.
Posted on 7/9/21 at 4:28 pm to CorchJay
They have a 5* DT flirting with them right now (Dindy). I'm rooting for them.. especially TWill.
Posted on 7/9/21 at 4:35 pm to jt33
Same I like Gus. Won't say I will root for him but he's a good man and kept us clean during a time many would have been hopeful he would cut corners. I only root for Auburn and whatever helps Auburn.

You seem to be showing more support to them than the current Auburn’s coaches. I have no earthly idea why. Gus was clearly nothing special.

You are basing everything on players you have zero idea what they will do. WE have recruited in the top 10 for 8 years. We got the right players as far as the numbers go. You may want to see how some of those guys pan out before you hang your hat on them. That is what most of you complained about with our last coach.
Im sure you will twist it to make your point but as far as the numbers go, Harsin is failing in recruiting. We are up to #70 from the 80's. At Auburn. Where just a few months ago, you guys were convinced we could get any coach we wanted and recruit any players we wanted.
From what I understand, he was not the greatest recruiter at Texas either. So maybe the guy just isnt a great recruiter and he doesnt have some "mad scheme" to his recruiting like some of you think.
Its not Boise bra. We need talent. Like it or not.
Meanwhile, our "rivals" you guys like to talk so much about are recruiting our eyes out. Shitty coaches or not, talent is a big ups in the SEC

Saving the Recruiting Thread
Have to give credit where credit is due. Gus is one of the best recruiting head coaches in the country.
He took over a shite 2012 team that won 3 games in December and brought in the #6 class in the nation. There was excitement when he came back. Which is what we need now. Im not seeing it myself but maybe I am jsut not looking hard enough. We just signed the 19th class last year and we are in the lowest point we have been in since, hell ever, right now. They need to get busy.
And they need to really bring in those offensive linemen we have heard so much talk about. I guess we are holding on to those till later.

What he did recruiting wise was impressive. Especially considering he wasmt the most personable character. What he did in 2013 was legendary as well. I’m not following him around like he is a martyr here though. It was painful his last few years. I hope he does well there but my team is here so I really don’t care.
Posted on 7/9/21 at 5:03 pm to jangalang
I been deleting a few Gus bros on Twitter too. I don’t give a shite if UCF gets a commitment spare me the retweets. I follow Auburn.
