If you look at JFIII stats he played more than the show portrayed. I would assume they wanted to present the angle of taking advantage of his "Last Chance" in the last game...but earlier he appeared to play 2 snaps in a game but passed for 155 yds and had several rushing yds in that same game.

For those hoping for an Auburn implosion you don't have to create a false narrative about how we recruited him to hope for it. We still have 3 QB's on our roster all recruited out of high school who our coaches do not believe can win football games so they went the JUCO route for the 3rd time in less than a decade to find a QB. It might work out again, but let's be real...it isn't a model for sustained success.

This can not be good for that head coach. Can this documentary do anything but hurt him and the program?

Also, the Auburn QB doesnt have the best attitude. But unfortunately thats how a lot of these athletes are. The show should have shown you that.

What in the world could that redbearded DL want from SELU that he couldnt say in front of the cameras? Dude is at EMSCC and is talking to SELU, not SMU...

I had actually read somewhere I forgot where that they were thinking of signing up for season 2. That was before the premiere though so might be a different story now.

We're about 4 episodes in and the shite he pulled over Ollie's concussion made me want to throw the remote at the TV.

Kid could barely open his eyes after the hit (or respond to questions for that matter), was sensitive to light per the neurologist, and eventually it was confirmed he had a concussion after Miss Wagner pushed the issue. Yet Buddy tried to play up to the Southern Miss guy that Ollie was just a pussy.

Probably my only real knock on the kid off the field. He doesn't look like a good qb prospect but he's definitely a tremendous athlete. Him an Ollie were the only ones that were really like-able. JF3 was supportive of Wyatt, stayed out of trouble, and made good grades. Sure, he's cocky. But most QB's are.

I read an article that De'Andre Johnson, the former FSU QB who was dismissed from the school after hitting a female, was to enroll at EMCC last Fall. However, I didn't see where he was on the show. Anyone know if he ended up at EMCC too?

You have to be an Auburn fan if you were able to convince yourself JF3 was likeable in this show.

He was on the team but didn't play so I guess the director didn't bother with him.

When I watched it what surprised me was when it showed the coaches daughters. Two of them are really cute and look really similar. The third looks nothing like her sisters and unfortunately looks like a miniature of him. Some people just arnt born lucky.

I hate auburn as much as anyone but compared to the other guys highlighted, JF3 came off just fine. I mean look at his situation. He transferred from Florida State, sat behind a kid who didn't get any big offers, and was still a supportive teammate. He also had no grade issues to speak of and stayed out of trouble.

Good teammate, good student, a little cocky. Not a big deal.

I can't believe the coach didn't get fired after that rant about his own players being thugs. That is unfrickingbelieveable in this day and age. If the goal was to portray him as the biggest a-hole in the history of College athletics,,, mission accomplished.

I don't have an issue with the verbiage. I have an issue with him completely rushing to judgment about it. I get that he was heated because that was a pretty big brawl and they cost themselves the rest of their season. But as video showed, they were simply defending their teammate.

How about him begging the cop to arrest him after the fight? Should have shut his mouth and gone inside the building.

I'm really kind of unimpressed with the overall coaching ability of the HC in particular, but his staff also. They seemed ill-prepared for the adversity that came their way against Co-Lin. He's a profane bully, but not really a sound football mind it seems based on the first 2 episodes (all I've seen thus far).

Right after he jumped his kid's shite for doing exactly what he does all the damn time.

I have absolutely no respect for the man. I agree with his OC in that at some point when your teammate is getting stomped to death with no ref intervention, no security intervention, and no intervention from the coaches of the other team something's gotta give.
