Around SBN: Now They've Screwed Spurs, UEFA Willing To Review Rule

No Change Too Strange

Hey everybody - while we're waiting for the evaluations from on high, I'd like to get your thoughts on some position changes between now and Spring 2012... I've already floated the idea of OMC moving to a slot receiver (i'm thinking David Palmer circa 1992), and Quan Bray could be an extra wideout ... also if LaDarius Phillips is good to go, we need to find a spot and let him excel. Don't want another Tristan Davis experiment gone awry ... I've given Clint Moseley the benefit of the doubt because I saw him play many times; he comes from a well-disciplined Leroy program that knows the intangibles. Might he be open to a Kodi Burns-type of move? If you've got any other ideas, let's hear 'em. (I don't know enough about the defensive players to make any specific suggestions) IGTBAAT

O-mac only has...

….one more year. Remember it took Kodi a year to become a good wide receiver. I think we’ll be ok there next year, with Blake, Reed a year older, and young guys like Sammie Coates and Jaylon Denson coming up. What we need are run blockers. One of this year’s downfalls was that we basically had Lutzenkirchen as a reliable lead blocker, and no one else. You really need about 4, a couple of H-backs, and a couple of tight ends. We’re desperately hoping Ladarius Phillips steps up! And Brandon Fulse.

......Drowning in cool elixir.

One of the most disappointing things this year...

Clearly Auburn’s offensive line played below our hopes, and their potential, but the biggest frustration came from these two positions.
LaDarius Phillips failed to live up to his potential, and this really hurt. Malzahn’s offense is only successful if everyone does their job. Phillips continually whiffed on blocks, or just plain didn’t block the right guy on numerous occasions. We all want to see him succeed, and then he would get opportunities to run the ball.
Brandon Fulse has shown some flashes of greatness, and we hope he continues to improve his run blocking, he would play much more.
I think Gus is at a quandary with C.J. Uzomah, he is so talented, he doesn’t quite know how to use him yet. At least that’s what I hope. He is too good to use as just a role player.

I REALLY want to see them give Uzomah a chance at QB

Especially if Frazier has difficulty developing as a passer.He is bigger than Frazier and he WAS Cam Newton at his High School. And he already is 6’5" 235lbs.

If they keep him at WR, I would LOVE to see Malzan set him and Fulse up to one side with Lutzy as the H back and run the WR or Bubble screen with Blake on the other side. With that much beef on one side of the line you would HAVE to leave Blake in one on one coverage to avoid the mismatch that would result from getting Uzomah the ball on the edge with Fulse and Lutzy as blockers.

I love the smell of Auburn in the autumn.....it smells like....victory.

You say....

And I start to mist up a little. It must be dusty in here.

Or you’re on to something there. Oh, what could have been.

Pops of ToTM has been advocated Lutzie at QB.......

because, why the hell not? He might be able to block for himself AND throw down field.
