Radio Appearance Forthcoming

Hey everyone. I will be participating in my weekly segment on SuperSport 930 out of Jackson, Miss., in a bit. That extravaganza will begin around 9:17 a.m. CST. There will be a podcast later in the day in case you miss the fun.

It typically streams live, so please enjoy the segment digitally if you're so inclined.

  3. So rumor is Lebron's poor play was because his mom was with a team mate? I find this one a little far fetched.

  11. I'm not alone on the Melissa Joan Hart thing, right?

    I'd post pics, but I don't want to get anyone in trouble at work. You can Google her and "Maxim" to see what I'm talking about.

  12. crap. i'm late to the HATE party. guess i'll have to catch it later on podcast. :(

  13. 1. It's about time to engrave Coach Paws' name on the "SEC Coach of the Year" trophy. Only one team vastly exceeded expectations from the preseason. It was Auburn.

    2. Can't imagine Delonte breaking out the "that's what she said" anytime soon.

    3. I still remain in a posture of hate.

    ReplyDelete
  14. she's a cute girl. if she's scantily-clad, what's wrong with that? you've got my support JG. ;)

  15. DUDE, Melissa Joan Hart in Maxim?! Sign me up! She was my first celebrity crush.

  18. I'm not trying to attempt some post-radio hate, but is Marquis Daniels really a star?

    TMZ says so.

  24. Once again when police tell you to stop doing something stop doing it.

    I liked MD when he was at AU but I wouldn't say he is a star. I didn't even know he played for Boston.

  35. After all the great things we heard about Dontae last year on the scout team, I was expected a lot of contribution from in this season.

    ReplyDelete
  36. since you asked nicely i am now following you. :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. Jay G,

    Do you think Aycock will get to play this year?

    sorry...had to break out your favorite question one last time.

  38. Aycock....we hardly knew ye. bummer.

  45. Yeah. Sorry. Forgot to mention that you could actually play it as well.

    Bless Google.

  46. finally catching up on the HATE. Cartman as Lady Gaga....never gets old.

    ReplyDelete
  47. OMG...that chicken and biscuits read was nasty.....I hope I never meet that guy because he's so "romantic"

    ReplyDelete
  48. Aycock had already been redshirted and he would have played this year. We now definitely have issues with runningback depth, but my guess is there are players that could switch positions if needed. We will have something like 4 runningbacks, which is pretty scary if the injury bug hits.

    ReplyDelete
  49. With Supermario and FAH already shown a tendency to get banged up, we could be left with Eric Smith and Michael Dyer to carry the load. Not a good situation.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Of course, there is Ladarius Phillips coming in. A 270 pound runningback would be interesting for a while.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Aycock did not look good in the sprin game. VEYR timid. I was surprised how soft he ran the ball. Thta is not why he was dismissed, but still I think he was not going to figure in into much playing time. I thought with Fannin, Dyer, FAH at Tb and ESmith and Lutz at Hback, he was not getting on the field this coming year unless there were some injuries. But IMO Dyer will be the cow bell by mid season. Remeber, he is not 18 years old. More like 20. big difference.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Some hot ones are lunching at Momma G's today. We may live blog a little of it.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Yea, Aycock was probably the least likely to play, other than Phillips, but 4 runningbacks is a depth issue if we play two at a time. If Malzahn uses other players in the h-back role, then it is not nearly as big of an issue.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Or maybe we see Kodi Burns, the runningback.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I am seeing comment on al.com that this opens up the way for Dyer to get playing time. Bull hockey. There is no way Dyer was getting redshirted unless he was injured.

    ReplyDelete
  56. OK, I'm not a coarch, but I was expecting big things for Dontae this year, especially early. Whatever it was, it must of been pretty bad to get cut loose. Wonder if Tech would be interested to have him now?

    ReplyDelete
  57. Hate that Aycock is gone, but such is life. I wish him well. I concur with WTC that he did look timid in the A-Day game.

    He would be wise to go I-AA for the rest of his career or juco for a year then re-emerge for two years a la Chris Todd/Cam Newton.

    It thins us at RB some, but it just reinforces that Dyer will be playing and playing a lot soon. Was likely to happen anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I do admire how Chizik isn't afraid to use the boot.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Aycock is apparently telling his former team mates at Auburn that he is transferring to Notre Dame! Yea, right........

    ReplyDelete
  60. Rivals do a Q and A with Austin Hubbard and they asked him what he felt his greatest moment was as an Auburn Baseball player, he talked about traveling but then said,

    "But our greatest moment is hopefully still ahead of us. Hopefully I'll have a better answer for this question in a month or so."

    Like it

    ReplyDelete
  61. Cam was timid in the Spring Game.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I am thinking Cam will be fine once he gets a few games under his belt. Playing Arkansas State first should help.

    The MSU game worries me because I expect them to improve and if we start slow, we could end up getting upset.

    Under Tuberville we usually took a few games to start clicking offensively. Last season was different. We clicked from the get go. I hope that is how it will stay with ChizCo.

    ReplyDelete
  63. I think we will be fine at RB. We have several players that have come in with the ATH tag. They could play the HB role. I think some people overlook Eric Smith. I think he is very valuable and will play a big role this year. DA wasn't going to play much if at all. Best wishes.

    WTC, I asked last night about a possible donation towards a 100yd indoor practice facility. Do you know anything about this?

    ReplyDelete

    CHB ..enjoyed the Beer. Holla next time you're in town.

    Looks like Chiz has tased Aycock. Hate it for the kid. Dunno what was the problem, but musta been bad.

    Weee ...CHB can bring Bama hate with the best of them.

    ReplyDelete
  65. The concern at running back won't be the starter or the backup. It will be depth should we get a few injuries.

    In general, at each position you should have 3 or 4 times the number of players that play that position on the depth chart. For instance, 3 or 4 QBs since only 1 is on the field at once, but 6 to 8 runningbacks since we typically use two, although it is a little blurred with the h-back and TE. We are now setting at 4, which is a big concern.

    The other thing is the number of plays we run. Malzahn wants to run over 80 plays a game. With that many plays it would be easy to have two tailbacks with 20 carries each. Suddenly 4 seems like a very small number when you consider the possibility of injury.

    That being said, the use of the TE in the HB role and possible other players switching positions should help. It is weird to say, but we are absolutely loaded with wide receivers, so there is potential there.

    Hatin' on Bama is a good use of time during the summer doldrums.

    Maybe we can get Jet to post his Bama Hatin' Manifesto just to inspire some of the newbies.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Anonymous12:44 PM

    We were very lucky last season that we didn't significant have OL or Lb injuries. That could have cost us several games.

    The situation at those positions is not AS critical this season, but could still be an issue. Can we avoid injuries at those positions 2 seasons in a row?

    ReplyDelete
  68. Here's an interesting topic: If the BCS strips USC of their '04 title, should we claim it?
    Related substance.

    ReplyDelete
  69. if this has been discussed i totally missed it, but did anybody see COLLEGE FOOTBALL LIVE on ESPN yesterday? i had it dvr'd and they went in-depth on USC possibly losing its 2004 title b/c of the Reggie Bush violations. they were adamant that the AP should re-vote and AU be named 2004 AP National Champions. i was shocked they were so pro-Auburn.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Same here Hoopie. I will probably be back in town the later part of June. I will let you know. For those who don'e know Hoopie is one wild dude.

    WEE....I have trouble sleeping sometimes because of the walmartian hate built up in side of me.

    I still think we are going to be fine this year. I think 10-2 is a real possibility.

    ReplyDelete
  71. wow Secondaid, we must be on the same frequency or something.

    they said if they were AU and got the title they'd celebrate, put up a banner, the whole deal. the BCS would vacate the champion and not have one but the AP could re-vote just like they did a few weeks back on another issue.

    ReplyDelete
  72. It won't mean diddley if we claim the 2004 NC. It just doesn't matter.

    ReplyDelete
  73. I think it was last week that I said we should claim it. It wouldn't be like some of the walmartians' or ND's MNC where they lost their bowl game and still claimed the title.

    ReplyDelete
  74. if we can hang a banner & print t-shirts it matters to me. the announcers said that a title 6 years later probably wouldn't mean as much to the players, but the administration, fans, town, etc. should go all out & enjoy it b/c going undefeated in the SEC is so difficult.

    ReplyDelete
  75. The undefeated season and spanking UT twice is what mattered to me.

    ReplyDelete
  76. I would take a flag hanging up in the stadium saying 2004 national champs.

    That said, it sounds like a really flawed system if you can vote on a national champion six years after the fact.

    ReplyDelete
  77. We should go back and claim a few championships from Donahue's undefeated teams.

    ReplyDelete
  78. the NCAA flawed? say it isn't so E-bro! haha, that rhymed.

    the ESPN guys were saying that since the AP re-voted on another issue (i can't remember what it was for) that there is a precedent and if that if USC was stripped by the BCS of their title that the AP could do the same things & re-vote. they said they would not vote for Oklahoma since they got spanked and so we would be the logical choice to be #1. they were insistent that USC needed to pay some kind of price for this cheating. why punish the kids that play there now? taking UCS's 2004 title & Heisman from them were what they wanted done.

    ReplyDelete
  79. and a #89 Darvin Adams too!

  80. I am vehemently opposed to retroactive "claiming" of championships.

    That's what "they" do. That's who "they" are.

    Celebrate the greatness of that team, but our eyes should be looking forward, not backward.

    DWWD ... Believe in work, hard work ... hate UAT.

    That is all.

    ReplyDelete
  81. I was watching the ESPN 2:30 CDT program and was amazed at the support for Auburn except for one guy. He said they should not hammer Sou Cal to bad because of the time laps and the fact that what went on did not make Young a better or worse player. What a laugh I got where was this guy when Auburn, Ala Okl. and many others were hammered way after the deed.

    ReplyDelete
  82. the ESPN guys brought it up. i'm just relaying the message.

    i agree....and i HATE.

    but i'll take another banner. it can hang between our 1957 & our 2011 NC banners. :)

    ReplyDelete
  83. If the AP re-votes and gives it to us, then I'll salute the banner when I walk in the stadium.

  84. I'm thinking in might be time soon for Brother Jet's summer HATE-cation Bible School.

    ReplyDelete
  85. preach it brother. preach it.

    ReplyDelete
  86. I thought Rod Gilmore's argument was horrible. He said it didn't matter if Bush was paid or not, it didn't change what an excellent player he was that season and USC won their games.

    Well it does matter if he was paid, because that excellent player wouldn't have been on the field.

    I also found it ironic that Craig James was on there hitting USC hard about violations when he was on the only team to ever get the death penalty.

    ReplyDelete
  87. yup, Bush is a cheater. therefore, USC cheated. if they hadn't cheated they wouldn't have won. AU would've beaten OU for the title.

    there, i said it.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I'm getting pissed off.

    About this as well as a number of other topics (non sports related).

    ReplyDelete
  89. I want to see Auburn win football games. I would love to see Auburn win the SECCG or the BSCG. Titles don't do it for me. Watching great football games does. While some of you stare at championship banners, I will be watching the games.

    As for Oklahoma, they were not that good in 2004 and many recognized it before USC humiliated them. I think it was a bad Texas A&M team that nearly beat them. It came down to a field goal, if I remember correctly.

    ReplyDelete
  90. I don't know if Auburn would have beaten USC in 2004, but I do believe there were numerous teams that would have beaten Oklahoma.

    ReplyDelete
  91. Like I said, I'll take the banner if it is given out. Not gonna go out and buy a shirt (sorry Scottie) that says 2004 national champs, but I'll accept some official recognition.

    Someone could probably even talk me into being down with receiving a replica crystal ball.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Steve...you can stare at the banners during pre-game and TV timeouts.

    ReplyDelete
  93. sorry Okie Norm. i'll stay away from that fightin' side of ya.

    and E-Bro, i'll be chillin' in my t-shirt, looking up at the banner from my seats in Section 12, Row 11 with a big smile on my face! :)

    ReplyDelete
  94. And while I don't count every season without a championship a failure, I do want to be winning them and think we should strive for that on the field. I've got no problem admitting that.

    ReplyDelete
  95. Well you should, scottie. Well you should.

    ReplyDelete
  96. I actually consider Oklahoma getting to the BSNC in 2004 a bigger injustice than Auburn not making it. It just illustrates that absurd world of college football.

    As for Bush getting paid not mattering, that is a bunch of crap. Heck, lets bring Ronnie Brown and Caddy back and let them play another season. Why would it matter?

    ReplyDelete
  97. Plus, let Tracy Rocker get in on a few snaps here and there. What would it matter?

    If you don't play by the rules, there is no way you should be considered for any championship.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I say let the beer flow and let the banner be unfurled. I think it's a great honor to a great team that was swept under the rug by the PTB.

    ReplyDelete
  99. 'we' cheated back in the 90's and were punished in 1993, thus eliminating us from any championships. do the crime, do the time. time's up USC....get some!

    ReplyDelete
  100. I'm taking the championship and buying the shirt. Just because we were jobbed out of celebrating then doesn't mean I can't celebrate now. Also, it would be nice that we would become the state's latest team to win a NC.

  101. More than likely what will happen is that the current USC coaches and players will be punished. What does it matter who is punished, as long as someone is punished. Such is the world of the NCAA.

    I would not be in favor of claiming retroactive championships.


    Thanks to the actions of the inbred, ignorant, arrogant and embarrassing entity over in W Vance, I'm even more firm in this opinion.

    ReplyDelete
  103. When does the NCAA release the punishment?

    ReplyDelete
  104. It's not retroactive based on a new formula. For the AP the formula is the same, the team that was awarded were awarded based on assumptions which might end up being invalid. If they go back and use the same methodology and Auburn were chosen it is not retroactive as much as it is six years too late.

    ReplyDelete
  105. Once again, letting the bamers dictate what you do is them controlling you. Us getting the championship this way is simply undoing an injustice, not reaching from the stars to improve our media guide.

    ReplyDelete
  106. Sorry that I'm a few hours late on the Aycock stuff.

    I had a pair of lunch meetings -- one with some HOTTIES -- and I'm not going to make a trip home while on vacation to post something.

    I guess if the AP re-votes, the so be it.

    Unilaterally claiming the title should be left up to the Walmartians.

    ReplyDelete
  108. As I said earlier, if the AP re-votes and awards it, then it's legit.

    It's not like we are going back 30 years later and claiming championships that we never recognized before that nobody of notice ever recognized.

    ReplyDelete
  113. I'm not going to campaign for the title but if awarded I would celebrate it. In this case I think it is deserved. It's not like its many years latter and some random guy with a magazine decides to pick the champions retroactively.

    Keep the hate going. I'm going to P90X it up.

  114. I think if you look down through history that most serial killer types were bammers.
