You obviously don't know Bill Clark. Just spewing some BS about stuff you have no real idea about. If you did, you wouldn't be saying these types of things about him. The teacher helped many and many students, it just so happens that people try and single the football player out.

Dude, you are so far in left field. Clark recruited at Prattville in the same manner as Saban. Bring as many top quality players in and just have the ones that aren't performing as well sit on the bench. The reason Prattville was as dominant as it was at the time is due to the fact that there were guys on the bench almost as skilled and talented as the guys playing so there was never a need to regroup. This becomes easy when you have the jr. high and little league coaches using simplified versions of the offense and defense.


Prattville has always had talent. We just didn't have a coach like Bill Clark that could maximize it. Haters claim it was done the wrong way.. but I have inside perspective. My senior year at PHS, was his first year and we lost 3 games. He went on to lose 6 games the next decade. My father was there during that time as Assistant Principal and retired after being there for over 20 years. Players in the area wanted to play at Pville and everyone has a relative that lives in Pville in the area, which is how they got by the rules.

That's the problem.

Bobby Petrino is a fricking winner.

This year and next year are Petrino's years to prove his meddle. He returns 10 offensive starters and 9 defensive starters this year + similar numbers for 2017

17-9 in his first two years


For context
- 6/9 of the losses were against top 15 competition
-Remaining 3 losses were road losses
- (10-3) at home

Also need to emerge that he took an super-athletic true freshsm dual-threat qb and adapted his pocket-passer offense around him.

Contrast that to our coach that took a pocket-passer and completely broke him.

Also true. Must watch Arkansas run a million 3 yard out routes against Bama under Petrino.

Louisville:

Arkansas:

11-2

Western Kentucky:

Louisville:

One losing season (during a rebuilding year at Arkansas) in 11 years with a total record of 100-39 (.719 winning %). 5-4 record in bowl games, which included births in the Sugar and Orange bowls. A guy that can mold and groom a quarterback. The guy might be an a-hole and had issues at Arkansas at the end, but he knows how to coach football. And Arkansas, Western Kentucky and Louisville don't have the recruiting luxuries that Auburn has.

In his last two years at Arkansas, he was 5-5 vs top 25 teams. Given he was at Arkanas, that is pretty good

Can we also mention that Gus Malzahn and Rhett Lashlee passed on Lamar Jackson? A guy that would be perfect for the Auburn offense? In favor of Tyler Queen's broken elbow and Jason Smith who is now a wide receiver?

Awesome sauce.

When he had his players in place?

Losses to #1 Alabama, #7 and eventual National Champion Auburn and #6 Ohio State (2010). Losses to eventual National Championship winners Alabama and National Championship losers LSU (2011).

Who knows where Arkansas would be right now had he never wrecked his motorcycle. Probably #2 in the SEC, behind Alabama.

doesnt really matter how you rationalize it, and I wont even touch on how bs your claim is, "getting by the rules" is cheating. I dont think any of this is why AU people dislike Clark though.

So Gus made mention of Auburn possibly moving to the SECe tonight and it's the most excited I've seen Auburn fans in a long time. Says a lot about the state of the program right now
