gctiger 979 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 So to paraphrase, the future is ābrightā! Seems like weāve heard this before and it just never quite comes true, so Gus will have to forgive me for not believing it this time Ā Ā Fool once shame on me, fool me twice shame on you!

I think we are going to be right in the mix next year and end up being one of the most experienced teams coming back. Yep, most will have a year experience. But when your recruiting especially on the OL is not up to par with the top tier teams in the league, how do you compete against them?(we have already seen some results this year)Ā Gus has recruited a Sun-Belt conf. OL, and he probably only has 1 or 2 that would start at Vandy or Moo State. I'm not even going to mention the Def. particularly the DL and LB. He can recruit and sign all the 4 & 5 star QB's, WR's, and DB's he desires, but without the LINES(and his atrocious play-calling at times)Ā to start off with we are going to continue to see the results of a Guster coached team until he is gone off the Plains. I don't give a rats arse how high his recruiting classes are or have been rated,Ā without filling the positions that he has neglected year after year such as the OL, Auburn is not winning to much of nothing in the future with Gus at the helm. I'll not go into the lack of player development.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jAUSon 2,836 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 They'll have a year of Gus experience. Gus experience and regular experience is two different deals. Gus experience should be measured in dog-years, only backwards.Ā Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twilli13 600 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I mean honestly, at this point I'm not even mad at Gus. Talk is cheap, what he says has little to zero impact on anything. He has to say something to appease the masses as he somehow retains his job each year. It's our damn fault for not getting someone better.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleCoTiger 1,957 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Experience counts, that's a fact. And having a full spring for Morris and Bicknell to teach the offensive skill players and line will be a big help. And Kevin Steele's young defense will be a year older, more seasoned and better as well. It could be a very good season come 2021. War Eagle!

AUBourne 425 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 There is no article linked in your comments.. Even soĀ my comments were also about next year. I said so what? Winning 9 games next eason doesn't mean anything if Gus is coach. He is what he is. Even if he could talk recruits into ignoring the plight of other top recruits that signed at AU under Gus he still couldn't develop them.Ā 6 minutes ago, CleCoTiger said: The comments and the article were about next season.
