Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I heard Usain Bolt is walking on to play QB. Anyone seen him around?; 9:38 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Is he faster than McCalebb?; 9:39 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: just a bit, but not as fast as me on I-85; 9:39 PM
Monica said...: Back home, THT?; 9:41 PM
michael said...: I am incredibly fast. I ran a 4.15 40 last week. I timed myself. I just counted while I ran.; 9:43 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: He's fast as hell. that's the truth. I don't know if you can measure speed after it gets to that.; 9:43 PM
michael said...: Hell runs approximately a 4.32 40.; 9:46 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: maybe it can be measured. who knew.; 9:48 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Caddyshack 2 is almost as bad as Smokey & the Bandit 3.; 9:50 PM
wtc said...: Cannonball Run 2 was horrible.

According to what others have written, Chizik and Co. hope to make a decision after the scrimmage on Saturday for a starter at QB. Does mean they will but are looking to do so.; 9:59 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Hi Mon - yep, catching up on lots of emails and will crash early tonight...but not before getting a post ready for the a.m. Day 23...hmmmm; 9:59 PM
michael said...: Yes, you hated to see them shamelessly make Cannonball Run 2 just to cash in on the success of the first Cannonball Run. Really hurt the integrity of the series.; 10:09 PM
Jet said...: McCalebb is faster than:

a. a hiccup.
b. Big Snacks at a buffet
c. Josh Thompson; 10:10 PM
Hardin said...: thanks for the answer, Eddie

another question...I haven't seen any interviews with Coach Luper. Does he not speak to the media anymore?; 10:11 PM
Jet said...: Michael,

You couldn't be more correct. Dom Deluise was hosed out of an Academy Award for Cannonball Run.; 10:12 PM
Monica said...: Your commitment is admirable, THT.; 10:15 PM
Unknown said...: Todzilla sounded to be the most confident in this video. Kodi having trouble with the rotating QBs isn't a surprise. I think Caudle is realizing his limitations.; 10:15 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: yall think Trooper is really serious about redshirting non-freshman receivers? that would be odd.; 10:16 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: don't get your hopes up, Mon. It ain't gonna be much.; 10:16 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: after all, I'm pretty doggone hungry, and food definitely takes priority. Time for supper. Ciao! Or perhaps, Chow!; 10:18 PM
michael said...: I redshirted non freshman all the time in EA Sports games. They never complained.; 10:18 PM
Jet said...: Scottie ...

Who among our returnees at WR is so stellar that it is out of the realm of possibility that we would redshirt them?; 10:18 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: i didn't say it wasn't a good idea. just foreign to me. i'm looking at the roster & i'm thinking Hawthorne? he ain't much good in the tub.; 10:20 PM
Unknown said...: I really like the way troop talks about how the players are enthusiastic. The last time I remember hearing that was after the 2003 season when the players were anxious to prove that 2003 was a fluke.

Fear Todzilla!!!; 10:21 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Hawthorne RS in 2006; 10:22 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: aha. thanks THT.; 10:24 PM
michael said...: THT hittin us with knowledge! You are da man, THT.; 10:24 PM
Monica said...: THT is the man X 10; 10:25 PM
Jet said...: THT ...

I say redshirt him again.; 10:25 PM
Unknown said...: Hawthorne is one of our better receivers. He wouldn't be redshirted anyways. My guess would be one of the sophmores, possibly Winter. Harry Adams may also be a possibility.

Fear Todzilla!!!; 10:26 PM
Anonymous said...: I just did a quick check and Derek Winter and Darvin Adams are the only 2 I see that have a redshirt left. I didn't check Zachery or billings b/c they need to play.; 10:27 PM
Unknown said...: Tristan Davis should be granted another 3 or 4 years of elligibility based upon how often he was injured. He could get injured several times just walking to practice.; 10:27 PM
Jet said...: Hoopie ...

DArvin ADams is getting good reviews, I understand. Haven't heard about Winter.; 10:30 PM
Anonymous said...: Jet....I read/heard that about DAdams also. I was just reaching for RS candidates. According to the AUC article, Blake is looking good. In the 2010 off season, we will probably lead the SEC in WR attrition.; 10:35 PM
Unknown said...: Eric Smith is going to be another player to watch. I am curious how they are going to get Tate, Fannin, McCalebb and Smith enough carries. It should be interesting. Option football coming to a plains near you.

Fear Todzilla!!!; 10:36 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: "da man" whoopdeedo. I mean, it's not like I could ever be Queen of Habotn or rule all of Eurasia. Now there's a real man. Either that or an ambiguously gendered creature.; 10:36 PM
Anonymous said...: gnite all...it's late in the EDT.; 10:37 PM
Unknown said...: Michael is one of the most unique personalities here. I smell a computer geek that goes into morning if his hard drive dies.; 10:38 PM
michael said...: Are you saying I have control over time and space and can instantly make it morning if I get annoyed with my computer?; 10:39 PM
michael said...: And actually, I rarely get on my home computer. Definitely not a computer geek, I only use my work computer for Microsoft Office type things (though I do miss the programming I did in college). But you could still classify me as a geek, for sure. I know my wife does.; 10:48 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: am I the only one who hasn't received tickets yet?; 10:50 PM
michael said...: I have not either, THT. But I also didn't order them. Still, I am hoping some show up on my doorstep from the Ticket Fairy.; 10:51 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: maybe I should come sit on your doorstep; 10:58 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: T-minus 23 days til kickoff!!!

HAPPY RONNIE BROWN DAY!!!

Cartersville, GA, native and Auburn graduate is a former All-SEC and ACADEMIC All-SEC Tiger. Sorry for the brevity, but I had an unexpected trip which cramped my style. Anyway, the HOTTIES are all fully cognizant of the greatness of Ronnie B!!!

Honorable mentions:
Fob James
Terry Henley
Fred Beasley

WARRRRRR EAGLE!!!
GO TIGERS!!!; 11:00 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: THT.... dont forget the Tiger in Training....
Onterio "Ludicrous Speed" McCalebb

23! Fear the Speed...; 11:08 PM
michael said...: And once again, Ronnie Brown gets screwed, this time by a over-brief THT entry.

Gotta give a shout-out to Kenny Irons, too.; 11:09 PM
Unknown said...: Ronnie Brown was definitely one of the best if not the best all around players in Auburn history, or at least in my lifetime.; 11:28 PM
Unknown said...: I just noticed that this hasn't been mentioned in a while.

Tim Tebow!!!

Fear Todzilla!!!; 11:30 PM
Monica said...: Aero if you're out there I'm watching the news and I'm sending you prayers for safety.; 5:03 AM
WarEagleRK said...: "Hawthorne is one of our better receivers."

Yes, all 12 of his career catches and zero TD's illustrate that point.; 6:09 AM
cincytiger said...: We all know Ronnie Brown, but here is a bit more info.

Although he started only 12 of 47 games for Auburn, he finished his career ranked 7th in school history with 2707 rushing yards and 5th with 28 rushing touchdowns. He also had 58 receptions for 668 yards and two touchdowns.

He was selected 2nd in the draft by the Miami Dolphins.

Here is a little reminder of what Ronnie could do:

Ronnie Brown; 6:09 AM
WarEagleRK said...: We were at the UT game in 2004 and when Ronnie ran over Jason Allen, as soon as the crowd got a little bit quieter a guy in our section stood up and yelled "THAT'S RONNIE BROWN".

Ever since then every time Ronnie did something or we see a highlight on TV my wife will yell out "THAT'S RONNIE BROWN."; 6:43 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Hotties stepping up to the plate! Thanks for filling in all the holes. I was just too gassed last night. WAR EAGLE!!!; 6:44 AM
cincytiger said...: Hey THT,
We're just the back ups to the major player. We step in when the main guy needs a breather!; 6:46 AM
Anonymous said...: Good Morning, Hotties! I loved me some Ronnie Brown. When he would get the ball and start running, I would yell, "Go Ronnie go! Go Ronnie Go!"; 6:48 AM

michael, I hope you're joking. TarHeel did apologize for the brevity.; 6:53 AM
Eddie McCoy said...: Hawthorne and RK's comment = me LOL!

Good Morning all. Happy Ronnie Brown Day!; 6:58 AM
Anonymous said...: The only reason Hawthorne had so few receptions is because they never threw it to him. He was always open.; 7:06 AM
Anonymous said...: I didn't get to see the video and the link says the page doesn't exist.; 7:08 AM
cincytiger said...: Luv,
Are you talking about the Ronnie Brown video? I just tried it again from the link and it worked. Not sure why not for you?; 7:16 AM
michael said...: Luv, of course I was joking. I don't think Ronnie Brown, busy with Dolphins training camp and his millions of dollars, really feels slighted in any way about getting a shorter than usual THT post. I just giggled a little bit at the irony, seeing as how he was tossed to the side early in his career in favor of Caddy, and now Caddy gets a large entry and Ronnie got 3 lines. It just never ends for poor Ronnie (well, actually rich Ronnie).; 7:23 AM
Jet said...: There's something about a big back running over a defender that makes you feel alive ... unless you're the defender.

Tell Jason Allen the tag number on that truck was "23."; 7:23 AM
Anonymous said...: No, the video for this thread. Big Brother has youtube blocked.; 7:35 AM
Anonymous said...: Aren't Ronnie Brown and Jason Allen teammates on the Dolphins?

I wonder if Allen shutters when Ronnie walks by...; 7:37 AM
michael said...: I wonder if Ronnie hung up the painting of that event in his locker for Jason Allen to see.; 7:43 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: HAPPY #23 RONNIE BROWN DAY!!!!!!!!

MY FAVORITE ALL-TIME AUBURN PLAYER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!; 7:50 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Michael - I understood your post immediately. I have always been a HUGE fan of RB, and always wanted him to be featured back. Hard to argue with playing Carnell, though.

BTW, all Caddie got out of me were some stupid lyrics.; 7:56 AM
BinOBA said...: Yeah, i love to watch Ronnie Brown run the football. You know him and Jason Allen both ended up on the dolphins roster. Has there been any murmur of a HABOTN fantasy football league?; 8:00 AM
Anonymous said...: On the twelfth day of the countdown, can we celebrate mythical national championship day" or something like that?; 8:02 AM
Anonymous said...: First I get thirty-six to nothinged and now I get 12ed.; 8:03 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: ok, a belated Happy HABOTN Day to moi, who wore 24 during intramural basketball while playing for the Habachis.; 8:04 AM
Eddie McCoy said...: Sensi- It will never stop, i'm surprised you haven't gotten 13th'ed yet.; 8:27 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: JGT's article about Onterio McCalebb in today's award winning Montgomery Advertiser.; 8:35 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: JayGT's Auburn notebook for today

(I couldn't wait!!!!); 8:39 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Also, please pick up the Advertiser's print edition if you live around here! Our fine Auburn coverage is only one element of our award-winning product; 8:40 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I hereby retract this post and my prior three, thereby leaving Eddie as threadkiller ;-); 9:22 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: nope, you had 4 consecutive posts. it's all you baby!

and why on earth could the thread be killed on RONNIE BROWN DAY????!!!! it's an outrage!; 9:24 AM
Jet said...: This thread is not dead!

Up from the grave it arose!
With Ronnie's foot on Jason's nose!
It rose a victor over the Dark Domain!
And it lives forever with the HOTTIES to reign!; 9:28 AM
WarEagleRK said...: Maybe Ronnie Brown ran over the thread.; 9:28 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: Bro Jet, that may be your best hymn yet. love it.

HE AROSE!!!!!!; 9:29 AM

and alone.; 9:36 AM
Eddie McCoy said...: This thread is just about as dead as a Kodi Burns touch pass.; 9:39 AM
Anonymous said...: Eddie, you are going to damage Kodi's psyche.; 9:39 AM
AUBigCat said...: HAPPY RONNIE BROWN DAY Hotties!!! I got to give a shout out to Fred Beasley as well.

Ontario McCalebb is so fast that he can turn off the lights and be in bed before the room gets dark!; 9:40 AM
Jay G. Tate said...: Sorry for the late start today, but operators are now standing by ...; 9:43 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: about that late start... do we get a prorated refund ;-)

Practice not til 7 pm CDT. I think your start is pretty doggone early, considering.; 9:58 AM
