Any word on how everything went for the Florida edge?


Nothing out there yet. Probably will know more tomorrow. He’s a big arse dude to be a buck. Hope he can set the edge in the run game if he signs would be a great edge on run downs

Cam ward may have gotten us to 7-5


Maybe but wouldn’t have survived the season. He would have been sacked 50 times

Imagine where we'd be if we went 7-5 with a million dollar QB

A top #2 recruiting class and a bowl game. At the least, he would’ve gotten Auburn to 8 wins though. Think about how awful the QB play was against Cal, Arkansas, Vandy, etc. But he took Miami to 10 wins with a pretty mediocre roster and had to play a lot hero ball to get them there.

Miami had the #14 roster playing in a down terrible ACC conference and still
Managed to miss the championship game and the playoffs. Plus had some miracle wins assisted by officiating in the middle part of the season because they appeared to be the only hope for a playoff spot at that time.

I don’t know what yall are all arguing about. Keep buying as many top players as possible! It’s legal now.

Thorne had flaws but being less than Ashford isnt one of them.
Ashford's dumb arse rode the bench his whole career.

Thorne:
5th in the conference in total passing yards
5th in passing TDs
4th in passing yards per game
8th in QBR
Four 300+ yard games
Some epic failure to be crowing about

Here is a spray chart on Thorne vs Arnold.


Arnold rarely tried to stretch the field.

Nobody cares about what Ward might've done.

Except it’s not a good point. Miami allowed 23 sacks this season. Auburn allowed 27, and how many of them were due to PT holding the ball too long?

Bro if Cam Ward was our QB how in hell do we lose to Ark, Cal, Mizz, (Vandy where all we needed was one TD) and my favorite Oklahoma? I'll give you Bama and Georgia, but those games where all close. A Heisman trophy finalist makes a difference there.

I brought ward up saying we couldn't spend the money for him with the roster we had

I guarantee Ward held the ball too long at times. You just magnify them because you're insufferable and need to be put down.

Who cares? We spent money elsewhere. Like Cam and Demarcus. Move along.

Let me know when Ashford ever has as good of a season as Payton's bad season.

I would expect nothing less from a Mario Cristabol coached team. I mean the guy lost to Gus and freshman Bo Nix when he had Justin Herbert.

Jville said Nix wouldn't start at Oregon
Said Nix was starting bc of daddy ball.
Said he would never play in the league
Called Nix beating out Gatewood unfair due to not going live in scrimmage
Rooted For Finley over Nix
Rooted for Ashford over Thorne
Rooted for Jeremy Johnson over Nick Marshal


Jville you are a real dumb mother fricker.

That same Auburn team had Derrick Brown and Marlon Davidson. Lol They also beat Bama and pushed LSU and Joe Burrow to the limit that year. Damn I miss being good

Hindsight is 20/20, but that money was spent on a portal LT that was a bust, portal DL that were either busts or played sparingly, portal WRs that got passed by true freshmen, and secondary players that got passed by true freshmen. And my favorite, paid Scott to come back just to play like trash and get benched.

At least KLS was worth the investment though.
