Friday chatter

Hey everyone. I have moved south from Cincinnati to Louisville and will be headed home to lava-hot Montgomery on Saturday. The high here today was 75.

I may need to move soon. Not sure I can continue to handle three months of 95-100 degrees every year. It gets old. You current and former Gumpians/Lee Countians know what I mean.

Bryan Matthews, don of AuburnSports.com, reported Thursday that Harry Adams is headed back to cornerback. The move ostensibly was necessitated by T'Sharvan Bell's move back to safety. He had been been at cornerback.

Not sure what to tell you here. I heard nothing but high praise of Adams' receiving skills during spring camp. Everybody knows Auburn needs some playmakers at wideout. Maybe the Tigers' brass is prepared to cast its lot with DeAngelo Benton and Emory Blake.

Today's question: What is Auburn's worst opponent matchup in 2009? Alabama? LSU? Georgia? How about a resurgent Tennessee?

Thursday chatter

Hey everyone. Another late night for the Tates in Cincinnati. I won't go into details. Maintaining marital bliss is a high priority.

I saw where Charles Goldberg, in his fine Gold Mine blog, notes that De'Shaun Barnes and Andre Wadley are no longer on the team. This allegedly is the result of career-ending physical issues.

We all know Wadley had a tough go of it last fall.

I'd like to have a conversation with Barnes someday about this hip injury of his.

Today's topic: Who will be the first current assistant to flee for a better gig?

Wednesday chatter

Hey everyone. Sorry for the minor delay here. One could say Wifey and I had a little too much fun last night and I forgot to pre-load the 8 a.m. thread.

Just to recap: The Diamondback at Kings Island is terrifying. I'm not one to be terrified by coasters. I'm an enthusiast. The first three hills really messed me up.

Here's what it looks like: The Diamondback

Note that there are no cars. You sit in a seat with armrests. There is nothing else to the car. Your feet dangle. That added to the drama. The second half of the above video illustrates it.

We also rode The Vortex, but didn't have a chance to hit another favorite, Invertigo. We ran out of time.

TODAY'S AUBURN QUESTION: Will Auburn's offense average more than 30 points per game this season? The Tigers averaged 17.3 in 2007.

Tuesday chatter

Hey everyone. I'm now on my way to Cincinnati for a little solo time with Wifey. We're planning a day at Kings Island and a movie/Reds day as well.

I like these few days a year.

Thanks for staying with the HABOTN even thought it's most high-profile bloggist is chillin' three states away.

Today's topic: Will Hot Carter become a star or will he level off as a merely useful player?

I have an opinion on this. I'll share later.

Monday chatter

Hey everyone. I am on vacation in a wooded section of Kentucky and, honestly, pretty at peace with being off the grid for a few days.

The season begins pretty soon. Getting ready is important.

So feel free to talk amongst yourselves about:

Which player will make the biggest jump in value this season?
