Probably Jay Jacobs best two moments: signing Bruce Pearl and Natty with Chiz and Gus. It is just a shame it took him almost 1/2 a decade of on the job training to accomplish it.

cbo 8,832 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Random pet peeve, apropos of nothing. People that facepalm and downvote your posts without any response. Especially after you’ve gone out of your way to ignore them for several weeks. Except when you actually liked a couple of their posts, just to make nice. Even though the posts were worthless. You were just looking for anything that wasn’t terrible. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I dumped the girl, of course her best friend wouldn’t date me. So I hoped some other dude would come “steal” my girl away, so it would free me up for the friend. Except this is worse. We don’t have a friend that we want if our girl gets stolen, at least not one that would consider us. And apparently, listening to the nostalgists on here, we should have held on to the fat chick that treated us badly that we dated before the current girl because she was the best that we could do anyway Edited November 27, 2021 by fredst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible offensive line, Nick, and Trigga Trey. If Gus would have recruited the Oline better, he probably would have won a natty or at least a few SEC championships. But they just recruited light out on QB’s and WR’s and didn’t think about providing the support the QB needed to actually use the WR’s. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey I'd settle for any coach that doesn't go for it on 4th and 1 from their own 35 yard line by calling a low percentage pass play. Harsin ain't going anywhere this year. But here is a question. From what you have seen so far. Which SEC coaches do you feel Harsin is doing better than? At this point I don't expect a top tier coach would think twice about Auburn. But I don't think Harsin is even coaching and recruiting bettrr than coaches of the bottom tier schools in the SEC.

Idk something doesn't feel right about that.. auburn was so dominate running the ball ... Usually. Plus Marshall was formerly a defensive back.. We did always have one solid wide out like Darvin adams, Coates and Seth Williams but I doubt they didn't think about providing support on the o-line. I mean a Greg Robinson 2.0 would have been great but they did bring in a five star in Calvin Ashley and two four stars and that was just in a cursory search of a random year 2017.. Just saying I don't think they overlooked it .. Maybe couldn't coach em up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus was here what 7 years and he went to Atlanta twice, to the national championship 1 time. Never did worse than 8-4, now lets see what happens the next 7! Won't be going to Atlanta under Harsin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a problem I'll agree with the recruiting part, but got to give him time to get his players in here. Remember he and some of his staff not from the area, so its going to take 3 years at least.
