Since we spoke with Derrick Nix and Kent Austin yesterday, just to reiterate...

Nix handles 1st down strategy/play-calling. Austin handles 3rd down strategy/play-calling. And as Nix said of Hugh Freeze, "head coach has the authority to overrule anything we say or do."

How often does Freeze overrule?

"It depends on how the game is going. But he's highly involved. To me, he's an outstanding play caller, and I've learned everything from him."

Man, if it weren't for Alabama fans on the SECRant I have no idea how I would get my Auburn sporting news.

Would you rather I join the discussion over there?

I mean, I can if you really want me to.

ETA: Doesn't look like you're particularly fond of this offensive strategy.

It’s about the play-calling plan you’d expect from a country moron. Can’t wait for the coaching search process to begin.

And then after the game Freeze handles the cover charge at the strip club for the whole crew.

Don't need to start a thread.

There's already one on the board with everyone melting about it, including you.

FreeE has moved from the “Blame the last guy” phase of management to the “blame the employees” phase, and he has his scapegoats to pick from.

Jackson Arnold won’t throw an interception every single possession. Just most of them.
