Yes.

Reuben was asked to play linebacker in two different style of defenses. First he was the big bulky LB in the base 3-4, then he was made to lose weight and play as a smaller faster LB in the base nickel. And it took him a couple of years, but he now can call the defense with the best of them and you will be hard pressed to find a better tackler.

Don't make me post the "The flip of Reuben Foster."
Ah frick it...
quote:
History will show that the flip of Rueben Foster to Auburn will go down as the single-most important event in changing the perception of the little/big brother roles in college football in the state of Alabama. Mainly because of what this manchild beast will do inside Jordan-Hare Stadium and the publicity that has surrounded the flip (press conference, tattoo, etc.). Not to mention the laundry list of fellow defensive recruits that are salivating at a chance to play with this wrecking ball on the field. This guy's magnetism and mentality are no different that Cam's. Both are once in a generation players and we'll have had them in Orange in Blue in a span of four years. I've never seen a time in which truly informed Alabama fans, not the toothleess Wal-Mart Muldykes, have been in such anxiety and agony over the direction of the Auburn Football program. I love every second of it, and they see what's happening and can't do anything about it. When you treat your players as family members and they play for you out of respect and admiration, things like 28-27 happen. When you have players that fear their coach, see rampant gray-shirting, bogus medical departures and wonder if they will have their scholarship the following year, things like a 24-0 complete meltdown implosion against your hated rival happen. It all starts at the top and CGC will go down as a legendary coach in college football history, not just Auburn history, Book It. I tell all of the Bammers without hesitation that CGC will win more national championships at Auburn than Satan will at UTea. If you hook me up to a polygraph while saying it, I would pass because that's how much I believe it to be true. The perception of Auburn Football in-state and on a national level is changing. September 1st is about to open the country's eyes as to what tenacious Auburn football is all about, and I can't wait to watch the look on little dabo's face. These are great times to be an Auburn Tiger. A dynasty is in the making, and if you don't see it, you don't have a clue. War Damn Chizik and War Damn Eagle.
War damn Chizik indeed.

Why do you say no. Cunningham had way more, tackles, way more tackles for loss, 2 FF to Fosters 0. Foster had 2 sacks which is the only stat he led Cunningham. Foster makes big plays but so does Cunningham such as game winning tackle against Georgia and jumping over the line and blocking the fg against Auburn.
Basically you think he is a better player because Bama and despite the inferior production. The guys who vote on this sort of thing are the same as the ones who put oj Howard ahead of Evan Engram.

He turned out to be smart enough to be the quarterback of one of Saban's best defenses. He won't win in a debate vs a Harvard debater. But let's see that debater on an Oklahoma drill vs Reuben.

LSU is linebacker U.
More linebackers in the league and better production. It isn't even close, bama fans are frickin delusional.

I don't believe you. Show me a link or some stats. I know Bama has sent many linebackers to the NFL the last 10 years. I think you are the delusional one.
