Take it one day at a time. I am the youngest of 4, wife is the youngest of 3.
I have only 1 sibling left. My mom family of 12 all gone along with most of their kids, my dad family of 13 all gone along with most of their kids. I don't remember grandparents on my mom's side. Barely remember my dad's side.

Grew up basically as an only child due to the age gap between me and the next one. I miss my dad tremendously.

Now my wife is going through it.

All we can do is think of them and take it one day at a time. Speak to God and walk the path. Good luck in taking it all in and working through it.

I tried telling yall that 10-8 would be a good season before the season. But naw yall had to go in with stupid expectations of 14-4 or 15-3.


You could tell that this was going to be a tough season.

1. Bruce quit right before the season
a. You know he knew this year would be tough
b. Go out with your last year being a final 4

2. There are no bigs that are giving you an advantage
3. This team is a bunch of rag tag throw the team together
4. Point Guard issues we have them.
5. Team chemistry seems a little off. Not that they don't like each other but they haven't formed a groove to take them over the top for a win (hard to put into words)

Just some points that I have noticed . The in synch with each other is a big one. There is no groove yet. Maybe tourney time they might get a game or two if they get in.

to be fair I think Alabama also recruited him as a tight end.


don't really care what other colleges do (unless breaking rules) I care what Auburn Does....to be honest Auburn hasn't put out a ton of QBs.
You made some great points from the video. I watched him for many years since he coached Rivers. Still burns me up with Tubs wanting him as a tight end.

Agree that he is good at getting his coaches to develop players. Your right about his portal classes older not star laden.

Agreed

I wonder if he would have worked here. I am torn on that evaluation. I think he would have had a much better record than Freeze but would he had the success that he has had at IU.
Some pretty interesting stats with Blue Chip etc..

Matt at it again

Reasons to Hate Every SEC Team

Because they have a Mascot that they can't decide if it is a Tiger or Eagle or a man dressed head to toe in Yellow...Permanent state of civil war

Lack of second ball handling guard is our ultimate weakness.


Don't remember the last time we had two guards that could do it. I don't know why we don't have at least 2. You would think we could find one at a lower level that could fill that role if we can't afford to get a higher level one.

get some tree damage?


With this wind. Some neighbors trees are taking a beating along with some of the palms. My royal Palm has dropped a couple. Lots of crap flying around my neighborhood tonight. Getting some gusts over 50 mph which is pretty bad. The cold isn't a problem but the wind sure is.

add players to their roster in the middle of a season?


Difference is that they could add amateurs but bama got a judge that is technically a booster (he gave money to the university sports) to get an injunction to allow someone who IS a pro by declaring for the draft going through the draft process without withdrawing, and then come back to college & because of the weather this pro will be playing in a few more games...

I totally hope it blows up in their face by loosing the next few games or if they win then those games become auto losses and they loose the legal battle.

Mizzou must’ve found out he runs a 4 minute 40.


They signed another WR. I guess they told him they weren't but did so he didn't show up to class nor anything. So Mizzou released him...

Be prepared...about to get a little more chilly. Still shorts weather unless windy. Just need to throw on a jacket.

A week or so ago when it was in the 40's a guy stopped me at Costco & asked what part of Michigan or Canada I was from. Which had me confused..I said neither, I have been a resident of FL since 84.

I just run hot. August/September is a killer for me down here...

Women have hot flashes...I have hot seasons

My Nephew works for Duck River Power. He is out in the mess right now getting the lines back.
I can hear it now. Welcome to Auburn Tigers football, today's sponsors are hims & yellowwood...you know what they say, you don't need hims if you got the yellow wood. Now for the line up... Oh Jim you know that the fans now can rent head phones sponsored by beats to listen to the game in a voice of their preference along with VR goggles sponsored by Meta to watch Replays of their choice, for a small contribution to the NIL fund...

How bad can this get & can I go find a small school to watch players play for the love of the game?
