1. He would just about fight teammates on the sideline

Have you evere played sports? Great leadership stories and carrying a whole team on their back is for the fairytales. Each person has a job to do. When the OL isnt blocking constantly there is only so much stress the other positions can handle. I remember in HS watching our QB melt down in the game even thouh he was the best player on the field. There were guys hitting him at the word go and he started to unravel. He was desperately calling for OL to do their job. That guy went on to play for UNA in baseball and then became a dentist. People get rattled. Ashford got rattled. Him and Tank got into it. shite happens. What you didnt see from Bo was he check himself out after cracking while on the field. Stidham did that and he played like it in his last year.

I agree. Bo also played at Auburn in a stressful time when Thanks to Gus, several of our rivals had MUCH More talent. He could have gone to a more structured situation out of highschool, but he chose to be an Auburn man like his dad. That got him criticism, stress, failure, some success like the LSU game and Bama(2019)but mostly disappoinment. Had he not gotten hurt he would have entered the draft and probably been a 4-5 rounder according to most, but he took a risk and it payed off. I'm proud that he turned it around guys. I'm choosing to remember the Oregon game he won, the good plays he made, and the success he DID have. Maybe if we appreciated people more we wouldn't be in this situation we're having to dig ourselves out of? It's just a thought

I’ll give you that to an extent. As a leader, you’re expected to hold your composure. Teammates will start to turn on you and not want to play if you’re playing

What do you have for 2 & 3? He lost all my respect when he basically blamed the loss on the fans.


I’m happy for him and will support his NFL career, but he was more than likely a 4th rounder with his Auburn showings.
