explodo Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 If I had been able to vote, I'd have gone Tebow, McCoy, Bradford. Easy (by very talented player standards) to be an excellent quarterback when you have two 1000 yard rushers. And McCoy probably did the most with the least. But Tebow is a machine.

bobbob1313 Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Oh come on. It's easy to rack up rushing TD's when your coach gives you 4 chances to run it in from inside the 10 three times a game. Tebow's perfect for their system, but if you're going to downgrade Bradford for his "system", you'd damn well better do the same for Tebow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
explodo Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Ha. And Gene Chizik gets to coach Auburn. I suppose I wish him the best, but he sure was awful at my alma mater. Like he won five games in two years awful. Granted, Iowa State is a harder sell to recruits than Auburn, but it still seems like a stretch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So either way, I just don't see how Bradford wins. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

explodo Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Bob Stoops runs up the score all the time. That certainly helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 No, he doesn't. He has his team play for 60 minutes. If I'm not mistaken, that's about how long a college football game is. Shocking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 dude my Sister in Allen totally has a basement, whats weird about Texas is very few sidewalks, whats the deal there? I wouldn't use Allen Texas as a representative view of Texas. Just one of the most affluent suburbs in the Dallas area. Neighborhoods without sidewalks in developed areas are an affectation...you know...looking for that bucolic feel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hixter Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Everywhere I have lived in Texas (Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth) has had plenty of sidewalks -- and no basements. It's not easy to cut through all that limestone. They have to use equipment like this just to dig foundations and such: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shocking.I am pretty sure Bradford was out of the game at this point, but throwing 40 yard passes in the final minutes against Missouri is what I call trying to run up the score. Run the ball, dick face. We get it. You won. But let us agree that you and I will never agree with each other about anything and end it at that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OOO Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 This graphic is alongside ESPN's story on Sam Bradford winning the Heisman. "Last 5 Non-USC Quarterback Heisman Winners" seems like they are stretching to find a pattern... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IATTBYB Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Why in hell did Auburn hire this guy? There has got to be something else to the story.Someone on ESPN's Outside the Lines show this morning said that the reason Auburn didn't hire Turner Gill is because he is married to a white woman. The guy who made this statement on the show is a espn.com writer and did not name the source, so take that reason for what it's worth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just don't get why they'd hire a coach who's won 5 games in 2 years. I'm still trying to figure out why they fired Turbeville in the first place. As for the Heisman, I guess this means that Florida will win the National Championship since the Heisman winner's team has lost the past few years. Go Tebow! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IATTBYB Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Barkley calls out Auburn on not hiring Gill. I guess the Auburn Alumni Association can take Sir Charles off the list of potential donors for the time being. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CrushOfVeils80 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Im very bummed Turner didnt get the Auburn job, somebody will take a shot at this guy at a big name school and somebody will land a damn good football coach, Notre Dame and Texas A&M may open next year, both would be good fits for Gill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonbama Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I just read this and it makes sense. The night of the Alabama-Auburn game after Auburn gets drilled 36-0 aprominent Auburn booster and board member (not the bank owning one, theyellow cowboy hat wearing one) calls Houston Nutt to inquire what it mighttake for him to come to the turdliest village on the plains. Apparentlystealing Ole Miss coaches is a pasttime in Auburn. Well, as we may recall Tubbs got a somewhat unique non-interference clausein his last contract following Jetgate. Auburn pledged to Tuberville thatneither the school president nor athletics director or anyone acting undertheir authority "shall discuss or negotiate directly or indirectly Auburn'sprospective employment of any other person as Head Football Coach of Auburn"without giving Tuberville prior notice. In non-lawyerese it basically meansthat if Auburn got caught monkeying around with a new coach behind Tubbs'back again he gets paid alot. Unfortunately for Auburn, Nutt's agent is Jimmy Sexton. Tubbs' agent isJimmy Sexton. Whoopsie. Tubbs walks in the following Monday discussing his intentions to resign andwants his money now that he knows his contract has been breached. Multi-daydiscussions ensue and end with Tuberville's official resignation on December3 and Auburn paying him the buyout anyway because it "is the right thing todo." Yes, its the right thing under the contract, otherwise who pays buyoutsfor resignations right? Now, guess who Gene Chizik's agent is? Right, Jimmy Sexton. Nutt gets asalary bump (more money for Jimmy) and an extension. Now, how does Auburnkeep Jetgate II from hitting the front of ESPN in an embarrassing manner?Hmmm, perhaps by hiring a Sexton client who needs to get out of his personalfootball coaching hell known as Iowa State? How else is he going to goanywhere with that 5-19 record. This seems to explain the inexplicable way in which this all went down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CrushOfVeils80 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Auburn really dropped the ball on this one, I dont see how you dont hire Gill or even Hoke at Ball State....sure Iowa State is a terrible job, maybe the worst of any BCS conference but still Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonbama Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Auburn is a second rate program that had a pretty good run the past few years. I think that the past two weeks have really shown this to be true. Sure, it's an sec school with a decent athletics budget but I don't think it is/was an extremely desirable job. I think Gill would have gone, but I don't think others were too quick to jump on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
