Really? Because according to different boog posters right here he has a 0.0 GPA, failed multiple drug test and got in a bar fight. Sounds like a winner.

Sounds more like he plays in Tuscalooser than Auburn

He throws 10 yard slants and WR's run for 60 yards. I have watched it in person.

If Mark Ingram shows up pregnant in a month I'm sure it's Josh Byne's

Gran could have been great if he could have taught Mario Fannin to block

Auburn backed off on Petey a couple of weeks back

In my opinion X OL Coach Hugh Nall should have been fired after the fiasco that was the 2003 season when he was the Co-OC with Emsinger. If you notice Auburn has smaller faster OL men than other teams in the SEC and College Football for the most part.

I am not an advocate of the system we used, on several message boards I was out spoken about Nall for a couple of years. If he was gone after 2003 Tuberville would likely still have a job.

Under Nall Auburn never semed ready at the OL position until 3-4 weeks into the season. Auburn would unexplainably choke on teams they should not have lost to or under perform. Teams that were successful used stunts and misdirection to get by the "zone blocking"

Under Nall Auburn used "Zone Blocking." Zone blocking is used more in the NFL than in College. (See Denver Broncos) Zone Blocking is associated with power Running games and is used to open up running lanes for RB's to get into the secondary or the open. It also utilizes "cut blocks". Cut blocks are legal but no one getting one likes them because they are intended to take the legs out and open a hole for the runner. It can also injure players.

Zone Blocking also is used to simplify blocking in that you don't necessarily have an assigned position that you block against. You block the guy in front of you.

The OL has been Auburns reason for a decline in Offense since 2004. In 2004 when Borges was hired he stated that with Ronnie Brown, Cadilac and the receivers he scripted plays to "get the play makers the ball"

In 2005 he tried to start implementing his "West Coast Scheme" while Nall continued to coach Zone blocking. The 2 don't mesh and Auburn began declining in Offensive production.

So Tuberville's answer was "Fire Borges" and bring in Franklin all the while getting more of the same from Nall. Auburn continued to try and use Zone blocking while attempting to run a spread offense this year resulting in RB's getting hit in the backfield before they even got moving forward.

The blame is always thrown at Chaz Ramsey. Where if you watch the clip and understand zone blocking you actually see that the fault is with the Tackle Lee Ziemba. He technically had a responsibility for the LB (48) blitzing (who didn't) and went after the first guy he saw. (Dorsey)

It took a down year for Auburn and LSU for Alabama to be successful
