Yep. With Nix they are not going to be able to run the Marshall style offense. Nix is a very good passer (5* in HS) so I think they will throw it more than they typically do. This being his true freshman year I don't expect him to light it up but he is somebody we will have to deal with big time in the future unless Gus messes him up.
Their next HC will have a ball with him, if they don't screw up their search again...
Auburn QB play had nothing to do with that game outcome. Absolutely nothing.
Talk shows are already predicting he will break the Auburn career passing records given he is starting as a freshman. Young man has a lot of pressure on him being a legacy and all the "hope springing eternal" at awbarn.
Well, that place has a reputation among the coaching fraternity. Not many coaches would be willing to take that gig in the first place. Why else were they forced to hire a 5-19 football coach after being turned by by so many prior to that? :cool2:
It wouldn't be "Barn ball" if the fambly wasn't over-reacting to some unproven player.
Well, there isn't much film on Nix at awbern to analyze since he is a true freshman...but I get what you are saying. :cool2
Well, there's plenty of recruiting video and he can't be much different/re-tooled than what he was just a year ago in HS with so little time on campus.
Yeah, I guess Moozahn has to decide which direction to polish his offense based on whoever's skillset. Not a good strategy as the possibility of an injury can really set your offense back when you have to go with a different guy in the middle of a game and your offense didn't prep that way. (See Colt McCoy and his backup in 2009/2010 against us in the BCSCG .)
