Maybe you were asleep last year, but the biggest reason we were so terrible was the worst qb play in the country.


Frazier went to the high school where Malzahn coached, they still use the same playbook. Frazier came to Auburn because of Malzahn and the style he was accustomed to, plain and simple.

Take Malzahn out of the picture and what do you have? The worst QB play in the country, which you already admitted.

So you guys basically have a bunch of finesse players who couldn't be bothered to adjust their playing style somewhat, and you went winless in the conference. Such talent!

Excuse me if I'm not buying into the whole "these are all Malzahn's players" groupthink. Auburn's players just really aren't THAT good, or else they could have overcome a change in offensive coordinator.

I don't think anyone is asking you to buy it any more than you're asking others to adjust their predictions to fit what you believe.

But i do think it's short sighted to assume it's the same thing as last year, which is what i gather you're shooting for.

As an Arky fan, you will witness first hand the difficulties of offensive changes this fall.

I don't think Gus has proven yet that he can recruit and develop players, most of his recruits have been busts. Especially at QB, all his high school QB recruits have ended up being garbage.
