Auburns Battie tabbed preseason AllAmerican by Phil Steele Nathan King ~3 minutes Auburn hopes one of its most productive transfer additions is a game-breaker on special teams in 2023. And Brian Battie is being recognized as such, at least by one notable outlet early in the summer. Phil Steele’s annual college football preview magazine has hit the stands, and the new Auburn running back has earned third team All-American honors in the all-purpose category. This time last year, Steele tabbed Auburn’s Derick Hall (second team defensive line) and Owen Pappoe (fourth team linebacker) as preseason All-Americans. An All-America nod in 2023 would be the second of Battie’s career; the USF transfer was a consensus first team All-American kick returner in 2021, after he led all of college football with three kick-return touchdowns, and was No. 6 nationally at 32.5 yards per return. The two players chosen above Battie by Steele were Louisiana Tech’s Smoke Harris on the first team, and Colorado’s Travis Hunter on the second team. Looking to create one of the SEC’s best rushing duos with rising junior Jarquez Hunter in the Auburn backfield, Battie ran for 1,185 yards last season (6.8 yards per carry). According to Pro Football Focus, Battie’s “breakaway percentage” of 45.8 was the ninth-best in college football last season, directly behind All-SEC running backs Quinshon Judkins (Ole Miss) and Raheim Sanders (Arkansas). The 5-foot-7, 170-pound Battie was one of Auburn’s first transfer pickups back in early January, and 247Sports rates him as the No. 6 transfer running back this cycle. His overall grade of 87.5 by Pro Football Focus last season is the highest of Auburn's 20 incoming transfers, followed closely by App State pass-rusher Jalen McLeod (86.6). “I’m super excited about Brian,” Auburn running backs coach Cadillac Williams said during spring practice. “He’s dynamic, explosive, a one-cut runner. Like I said before, I know he’s a smaller guy, but you don’t see clean licks on him. He understands leverage, angles — tough kid, will stick his face in the fan, pass block.” Auburn’s top kick-return option last season was Hunter, who averaged 21.6 yards per return. During spring practice, Battie also repped on kick returns with fellow running back Damari Alston, defensive back Keionte Scott and receiver Ja'Varrius Johnson, among others. *** 50% OFF SUMMER SPECIAL: Subscribe to Auburn Undercover for the latest news and intel, podcasts, recruiting coverage and more *** *** Get Auburn news straight to your inbox with the Auburn Undercover newsletter ***

get back with me when he starts acting like a christian. jesus would never put migrants running from violence on planes up north to be cute. seejj? you as well. you cannot have it both ways buddy.

you are very right. but this is what and why they are doing it i think. you can smoke pot today but tomorrow you would still test positive and not be high. i was told in drug school with my weight it would take six months to clear my body. those feds sent us to school for a ton of stuff. and it is legal now in many states. how they can determine when you are high and when you are not is what baffles me. maybe a blood test is more accurate. but i would hate to lose a star player who had not been high in while to not be able to play.

no sir i have a legit place in anniston that has a mixture of delta 8, and 9. i tried the delta years ago and wasted close to a hundred bucks. a friend turned me onto these and i laughed. he left me five and said be careful and do not plan on leaving for a while. i took a half a gummy and it kicked my behind in a good way. these are 15.mg. what is weird is if i take more it messes up my buzz. i have yet to figure that one out. backwoodz cbd and hemp. all legal. and it is cheap..if ya got a question message me. this stuff gripes some people.

ok i feel better. we should always hesitate and be real careful when it comes to education. we have enough dumb folks as it is.

too early in my opinion. libraries help thos that cannot afford phones or puters. in fact they have computers available for folks. they have free movies. they just had a huge civil rights thing in anniston with one of the orinal bus riders that got beat to within inch of their life. libraries have their uses and i hate to see you want that taken away. grinch

they have classes for senior citizens. they have stuff all summer long for kids. hell they help you do taxes during tax season. they educate. i support the hell out of them. plus when i was a squirt it was a special treat to go to the library. it was like magic and i think if anyone child or adult can find that magic it is ok with me.

libraries are more than just loaning books. they do many services for the community so i say yes. you should go visit one sometime.

bad look repukes............

Opinion: As America celebrates Juneteenth, Ron DeSantis and Mike Pence want to honor a Confederate general Dean Obeidallah 5–6 minutes On Monday, our nation will celebrate Juneteenth, which commemorates when America’s last enslaved people learned of their freedom on June 19, 1865, in Galveston, Texas, from Union troops, more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Dean Obeidallah - CNN In 2021, President Joe Biden signed legislation that designated Juneteenth a federal holiday, declaring that “all Americans can feel the power of this day and learn from our history — and celebrate progress and grapple with the distance we’ve come (and) the distance we have to travel.” - ADVERTISEMENT - Despite the president’s hope that Americans can “celebrate progress,” two 2024 GOP presidential candidates, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Vice President Mike Pence, are attempting to take our nation backward by vowing to rename a military base in North Carolina in honor of Braxton Bragg, a slave-owning, former Confederate general. Fort Bragg became Fort Liberty earlier this month as part of a push to remove the names of Confederate leaders from military bases in the wake of protests over the police killing of George Floyd. Vowing to revert back to the name of Fort Bragg, DeSantis declared June 9 at North Carolina’s GOP state convention: “It’s an iconic name and iconic base, and we’re not gonna let political correctness run amok in North Carolina.” At the same Republican gathering, Pence echoed that pledge a day later, stating, “We will end the political correctness in the hallways of the Pentagon, and North Carolina will once again be home to Fort Bragg.” The promise of these two Republicans to rename a base after the slave-owning, traitorous Bragg is despicable. While Bragg graduated from West Point and served in the US military at one point, by the time of the Civil War, he owned a Louisiana sugar plantation and 105 enslaved people. Confederate President Jefferson Davis asked Bragg to leave his plantation and serve as a general. Bragg led armed forces that waged war on US troops. At the 1863 Battle of Chickamauga alone — where Bragg was uncharacteristically successful in defeating Union forces — patriotic US soldiers suffered 16,000 casualties. As Bruce Levine, an emeritus history professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and author of several books on the Civil War, explained to Politifact.com, “Bragg enthusiastically, if poorly, helped lead an armed insurrection against the United States government that tried to break up the Union and preserve slavery.” DeSantis and Pence are just following the lead of former President Donald Trump who, when in office, repeatedly defended naming the base after Bragg as well as defending other bases named to honor former Confederate officers. Trump even threatened to veto the bipartisan defense funding bill Congress passed in 2020 that included renaming military bases that bore the name of Confederate generals, tweeting at the time: “I will Veto the Defense Authorization Bill … which will lead to the renaming (plus other bad things!) of Fort Bragg, Fort Robert E. Lee, and many other Military Bases. …” Trump eventually did veto the sweeping defense bill, but Congress overrode that veto in early 2021, eventually paving the way to start renaming nine military bases that honored Confederate officers. Around the time of Trump’s veto threat, in June 2020, a Quinnipiac University poll found that 86% of Republicans opposed renaming the bases, while 81% of Democrats favored renaming them. That may explain why DeSantis and Pence — who are both trailing Trump by large numbers for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination — would raise an issue that’s not likely on the radar of non-Republicans. What we are seeing today from some GOP leaders was perfectly summed up when Biden gave the commencement address at Howard University in May. “We know that American history has not always been a fairy tale,” the president told the graduating class at one of our nation’s most prestigious historically Black colleges. “From the start, it’s been a constant push and pull for more than 240 years between the best of us, the American ideal that we’re all created equal — and the worst of us, the harsh reality that racism has long torn us apart.” He added, “It’s a battle that’s never really over.” Indeed, these Republicans’ attempt to revisit the removal of Confederate names from military bases proves this battle pitting the best of America versus the worst shows no signs of letting up.

Mehdi Hasan Shows What A Big Phony Ron DeSantis Is When It Comes To Jesus Ed Mazza 2–3 minutes MSNBC’s Mehdi Hasan on Sunday called out Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a 2024 Republican presidential candidate, for his latest “transparent pitch” to win over evangelical Christian voters. During an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network last week, DeSantis said he’d like to have been among the original disciples of Jesus Christ. “These guys all went out and they dedicated their life to spreading the gospel,” DeSantis said. “I look back at that and would loved to have been able to be there with them.” Hasan couldn’t get over the “sheer arrogance” of that statement from a Republican. “Just imagine for a second if alongside Peter, John, James and co., there had been a Ron,” he said, then envisioned how that might’ve gone: “A Ron who every time Jesus helped the poor and used loaves of bread and fish to feed the hungry Ron was like, ’You’re too woke, Jesus. You’re too woke. Let them pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.′ Every time Jesus said, I don’t know, we should embrace refugees and migrants Ron was like, ’Stop all the wokeness, Jesus. Send them to Martha’s Vineyard. The Holy Land is where woke goes to die.’” “The truth is that the Jesus of the gospels and his disciples were way too left-wing for Ronald DeSantis,” Hasan told fellow MSNBC host Ayman Mohyeldin. Mohyeldin said DeSantis went from worshipping “cult leader” Donald Trump to running against him for the nomination ― and that could have supporters of the former president envisioning him as one very specific disciple. “He’s probably been more of a Judas than a Peter,” Mohyeldin said. “Even Donald Trump has noticed this betrayal.” He played a clip of Trump slamming DeSantis as “disloyal.” “Call me crazy, but at the end of the day, I’m not so sure positioning yourself as a Judas in the eyes of the Trump cult is the way to win over the faithful,” he said with a laugh.
