When Gus is finally let go and his career is being dissected, OL Coach will be considered one of his largest downfalls. That and waiting too long to realize defense matters in the SEC.

Doesn't sound like it. Jhead said Davis and Hastings will take more snaps at that position and Shwartz and Shivers would get a shot when they get to campus.
I’m still skeptical about this, but would be cool if he does. Probably has the best body to handle the load right now of all the backs, aside from Malik Miller who I guess sucks

I’m gonna hold the last candle for Malik Miller and be that guy.
Hoping he can be a beast at Jax State or Troy in the near future and then annoy the boards whenever he has a good game.
He’s got to work on securing the ball or Gus will never let it happen.
he has fumbling issues? Something from HS? Or something you've read about him at AU?
Either way, I'm excited to see Boobie Whitlow during the A-Day game. He, Malick Willis and Joey Gatewood are the reasons to tune in
From somebody that is at practice everyday. I did see him play QB in HS four or five times. No issues then. He’s very talented. But I never imagined he’d be ready to start at RB for AU this soon watching two years ago.
It's crazy how things change rather quickly. I went and watched Dee Ford at Odenville. I couldn't believe Auburn offered him. When Tuberville got canned I was hoping Dee would decommit or we would pull his offer. 2 years later he's sacking Aaron Murray to clinch the SEC west title, then he is All SEC 2 1/2 years after that.
When I first saw Malik Miller and K.J. play, MM was a SO....I thought he was the next Trent Richardson and wasn’t sure K.J. would ever pan out at this level. It can all change in a hurry but I’ve also decided that I’m not a very good judge of HS talent.
Really tough at the level they were playing at. Hopefully he gets moved to H soon.
That was all self perseverance imo. It took Ford 3 years to put on all the weight. How did he do last year in the NFL?
Lols. Our offensive coaches are an embarrassment.
I saw Tim Watts two weeks after I saw Dee play. I said, "that kid will not play at Auburn". Watts said, "he's the most underrated player in the southeast".
I think Dee did well last year from what I remember without looking it up.
Just don't lose sleep over it. Life will go on if we go 3-9 next year.
I won’t lose sleep over it. I just feel terrible for the offensive players who have NFL ability who are just being wasted away by gross incompetence and borderline criminal negligence.
They don't give a flying fvck about you, so don't let their lack of development rattle your cage.

Dee is a very good player when he's on the field actually playing.
After reading some spring practice reports, I’m pretty worried about the secondary this year. Sounds like none of the younger guys from last year aren’t impressing or made any progress. Was hoping guys like Malcom Askew or Traivon Leonard would be making noise but not a single peep about them. Sounds like Noah Iggy is way ahead of both of them and he’s only played corner this spring
How do you 247 guys read this bum?
Sekunderry kood be a huge problem. #14 back thare wuz a BEAZT for uz and he gone!!
We gotta hope dat them three freshman kan play and kan play well.
Askew iz a smart kid that shooda gone to Samford. I juzt talked to hiz high skool coach lazt week. He wuz lifting at McAdory lazt week and told the coaches that he wuz mooving to safety.
He was called out yesterday for click bait (he gets called out on this a lot), for an article that had this headline:
"Update on WR Hastings' whereabouts, knee injury"
When click on the article, it stated that he did still did not know what the knee injury was and he still did not know why he was not on the practice field (since most injured guys can be spotted out on the field).
This is a typical Brandon Marcello article.

I thought NCM’s brother may play at some point during his AU career, but that kid must’ve been coattailing it more than I realized. He was a 4* recruit.
oh my god. Make it stop. Make it stop. I was counting on this kid being the starting center. This offense is definitely gonna struggle this season.
Nice nice nice. Looks like they’re all jumping over last year’s DB class besides Jordan Petyrs
Yesssssssss. Both he and TD Moultry were impressive as true froshes last year. I’m excited about both of em
That is Keith Niehbur level of attention seeking about how no one appreciates them.
It's like these beat writers reach a certain age where they see their dreams of being nationally relevant starting to die while simultaneously realizing that they have no upward mobility at their current gig. So they just get bitter and snarky.
Only guys like Bmatt and Pmarsh really remain normal just because they love Boog athletics and it's kind of their dream job.
My step dad is going to the practice tomorrow with Randy Walls. He coach Randy in high school and sent him to Auburn.
