That's a joke and some minor league stuff if it happens. Get some cameras up and if the announcers are busy with other stuff then get some past players to do guest commentary.


Having worked on live sports broadcasts, and knowing how difficult it is, doing this would make us much more of a joke than doing nothing.

I don't mean record with your phone. They can hire the right people with the cameras and to operate them so that it looks good. No one would complain about guest commentary for a spring game, and might make it even better.

Not showing anything is some high school stuff. Either too lazy or too cheap to do it.

obviously we’re gonna get grief for this and probably deservedly so, but can anyone here recall anything about a single ADay game broadcast in the past 10 years or so?

they’re not even real games anymore, with their weird scoring systems and player assignments, and more often than not the POTGs end up not even significantly contributing once the season starts

i have fond memories of attending the games in person in the past, but i usually don’t even tune into the broadcasts

Imagine that:

someone else looking at footage from practice.

I guess you didn't get the memo that you aren't supposed to care about such matters.

No, not really, but that doesn't change the fact it is still fun to get an early look at the team, and see some of the new studs that came in. Is it a riveting moment in April, No.

MIssed the memo for sure. Making assumptions based on a few minutes of practice film is what this place is built on.

Yeah he wasn't ready for that one. I don't mind if they ask tough questions but this one was kind of dumb. He has already started his "second chance" before coming to Auburn.

Hasn't he been working since Maryland? Dumbass question. Maybe the journalists failed to do his homework

It was done a while back. It wasn't great, but not bad. No commercials or the incessant jabber of announcers.

Jang,

I liked the ending....

Thorne to the trainer "When are they turning the mike on?"

The trainer says something and then Thorne says "Its on?!?!?!"

I have done a poor job posting practice videos and interviews the year. My bad fellas.

Anyway just some thoughts from Freeze’s comments yesterday. He said he really likes the ‘24 class. Meaning the class that is on campus but the 4 that will come in the summer. However, he did say something like the passing game will be better once the roster is his players. He wasn’t speaking on Thorne but more the WRs in that context.

I was ok with the “roster” issue comments last season. I’m not sure I’m gonna be ok with that this season. No we aren’t top 5 talent in the conference but we have to be better in every way this year. The only “roster” talk should be the elite defensive backs we lost from last seasons team in my opinion.

Fall camp thread is where its at.


Spring is VERY meh. Journalists choose the spring to bring up the Gray Kings of the world, the players that will barely receive any recognition once fall camp starts.

Once fall camp starts thats when i am craving football information. .
