Miserable yes, drivel maybe not… You can not truely believe that the triplets (Jay, Gene and Ted) can ever make Auburn a top program (USC, Florida and Alabama). God it pains me to add that last football program.

Tommy Tuberville. Auburn will be fine. We are witnessing the results of a poor effort done in the area of recruiting by the previous staff. There is no depth. Tubs shouldn’t get to keep that buyout considering the state of our defense. Four scholarship linebackers? Are you serious. This staff is doing the best with what they have. The only thing worse than th last four years recruiting is your fairweather fan attitude. Go cheer for your alma mater and le
ave the concern for these young men to the real Men of Auburn-you slug

Chill… All I’m saying is you can’t blame Tubbs for everything. Penalties, not knowing the plays, can’t tackle, can’t cover without a foul, not knowing down and distance, not able to take a snap under center, on and on and on. Not Tubbervilles fault. Tubberville, Dye and Jordan pretty fair coaches, even you real Men of Auburn must agree?
Oh by the way real Men of Auburn never resort to name calling just because we do always see eye to eye.

Agree with those blasting the author of this article.

It was the success of the early season which made the inevitable losses later in the season seem so catostrophic. It’s the downward trend. If we had lost the first five games and then won the next five, all the naysayers would now be extolling Chizik’s virtues.

The author would have a valid point if these coaches had their recruits which would allow them to run their systems at full speed and still played as miserably as they did last night. You can’t blame Malzahn for Todd’s poor play. You could arguably blame him for not putting Caudle in sooner, but that is hindsight and Monday morning quarterbacking. Good luck with that.

NIce post!!!

Now THAT is pessimism folks! Nothing like diving into the old pit of despair to get things moving in the right direction. Right?

I’ve been saying it since after our win over Miss St. The Bama team that we need to be looking at for comparison is 2007, not last year’s version of the Tide. If those of you without extremely short memories will recall, they started out 6-2 and the proceeded to drop the last four games of the regular season and limp into their bowl game to barely beat Colorado. Then they went 12-0.

The thing is we all need to chill out and wait. I’m not saying that next year we’re going to run the table. I AM saying that next year will be much better than the current one, and that people like the moron who posted this will hopefully be sitting in a corner with nothing negative to say about the coaching staff.

Also: Fire the OC, HC, and DC mid season? Remember what happened when we got rid of Franklin last year? We were worse off than when we had him. And THAT is saying something. I don’t want another nation fiasco.

You are obviously either a Bama troll or an idiot. Here is the truth, are you ready for it? Tuberville put us in a hole and Jacobs and Chizik are trying to claw us out of it. Look at it unbiasedly and see that we have been on a downward spiral since Chizik left, our defense got worse every year, our talent got thinner while everyone around us were loading up and Tuberville had miserable assistants who taught most of these kids poorly for the past few years.

Just on the defensive side of the ball, our linebackers were taught to place aggressively and take poor angles and that is being worked on. Our defensive lineman are doing a poor job of pressuring the pocket on both running backs and quarterbacks and our corners can’t cover the top guys in the conference. More talent is on its way but it takes time.

On offense, we have no quarterback with good skill in the pocket and/or on the run. Our running backs are a bright spot, our receivers run poor routes and lack the ability to get open, our offensive line was one of the worst coached lines in the country.

Only two assistants from the Tuberville regime last year is still working in football, one is Eddie Gran and the other is the fall guy that got fired midseason to save the jobs of the clowns who couldn’t coach.

and we beat the two teams that have our former assistants! lol

Give it a rest

come out of the wood work like cockroaches. Everyone who knows me knows I was vehemently against Tubbs getting the axe…..I felt like he had done enough for the program to deserve the chance to right the program (my opinion has not changed in that regard but that’s water under the bridge). You also know that I felt like Jacobs dropped the ball with the coaching search and didn’t make the correct hire (my opinion of Jay Jacobs also has not changed). What has also not changed is my support of our football program and my Alma Matre. I don’t care who was right and at what point they were right on or wrong or any of that. I support the program and its coaches and I will continue to do so until it is obvious that they are not the right people for the job and there is no other possible explanation of it……we are a long long way from that point and will not be there this season. Show some patience as well as common sense and don’t be a part of the problem.

I could not agree with you more. This is exactly how I feel. I never said bring back Tubbs; my choice was Greg Petterson (Boise State) however, it is My opinion that Flemico knows way too much about douche.
