Here is what Alec Morris' bio says on rolltide.com I noticed he did have some good rushing numbers in high school. HIGH SCHOOL AND PERSONAL DATA: "The only quarterback in the Crimson Tide's 2012 signing class ... fits well into Alabama's pro-style offense ... 247sports.com ranked him as the...

Part of the problem with evaluating the first game is that no one knows at this point how good or bad their competition is. It may turn out that W. Virginia is better than everyone thinks. Last Year Oklahoma just beat the 4-8 W. Virginia team 16-7 but they ended up beating us in the Sugar...

The last few seasons I have been counting the number of run plays in a row and we hardly ever run more than 2 plays in a row. We run 2 plays and then throw it. We ran the ball 3 times in a row against LSU once and we never ran it more than 2 plays in a row against A&M. It is obvious that if we...

There are a lot of things unique about our game against LSU. Firstly, LSU had our game circled all year and had practiced the last 20 minutes of practice everyday preparing for Alabama. Secondly, Mettenburger played the game of his life. Thirdly, LSU 's physical play and depth will not be...

Re: Zen and the Art of Coaching Football: shoulda been headline on Staples' Saban pie The article did not mention how Auburn is being Sabanized by hiring a pro style offensive and defensive coordinators. The fact is that few programs have been able to copy Coach Saban's success because few...

Very sad indeed. I enjoyed watching Crain growing up even though he wore the ugly orange and blue. I wonder if this story is related to his past depression over prostate problems. Here

This is an interesting read about Dyer's testimony in court today.Link

I would like to see an all out full court press in the style of 40 minutes of hell. :mad2:

Patrino has zero divisional or SEC championships. I would not count that as a success. Most NC in the BCS era has consistently had a top 5 recruiting class with the exception of Auburn. Still, Vandy has a better class than Arkansas. That has never happened and that is the main point that I was...

I just noticed that Vandy ,with 21 recruits, has a better recruiting class than Arkansas who has 23 recruits. This is according to Rivals. :biggrin:

Re: Darius Philon Signs with Arkansas His scholarship was not pulled. He was aware of the greyshirt as a possibility well before signing day. He has a knee injury he is recovering from which means it is higly likely that he would not play next season and be redshirted. So he would start his...

The four year deal is a joke. How many players have been kicked off of a college football team for simply being third string? I have never heard of such nonsense. A player usually loses his scholarship over discipline and grade issues all which a player at Auburn can still lose their scholarship...

Re: Joe Paterno May Joe Pa RIP. I think the thread title should be changed as well.

Re: Brent Pease as OC I think one from our current staff will be promoted to OC.

Perfect. Three is a good place to start. I think next season will depend on how well our young guys are able to replace those great defensive players we will lose to the NFL.
