Does having Melvin on staff help/hurt Auburn's prep this week?

[57stratdawg]

Considering we didnt change a damn thing between Jan and Aug, seems like it's gotta help them.

 

[SignalToNoise]

Since he will be nodding off during film sessions I don't think he will provide any help.

 

[thatsbaseball]

Rest assured Melvin will find ways to "help" over the next few months

It's all about Ellis Johnson. That sob is gonna damn near shut us down. Our defense/special teams are gonna have to score.

Melvin's coaching was limited to recruiting extremely

Talented players and telling his position players "to not let the WR get open".

That was the extent of Melvin's coaching. I am not worried about this aspect of Saturdays game.

Ellis has allowed over 400 yards total offense in both games. We may lose but you guys act like auburn is bama. They aren't. We can win this game and I think we will

I call BS on Melvin not being a good coach.

help

There is a difference between being good at something and actually getting off your *** and doing it.

 

[dawgstudent]

Do you think it depends on who we play at QB or do we win with whoever starts at QB?

That atrocious D hasn't given up a TD in 17 consecutive drives. AU is bend....

dont break.

they are pulling their D together, just as I hope we are pulling out O together.

This outcome of this game is going to tell us exactly how our season is going to unfold.

Wsu scored 24 on auburn with 464 total yards (120 rushing)

Wsu scored 10 on USC with 222 total yards (7 rushing)

Gus has a distinct advantage over his previous team IMO.

BTW I hope auburn plays bend but don't break against us.

 

[Machiavelli]

Oh you mean when two other coaches had 4x his contacts but signed no one, window dressing. Got it. I still call BS.

Who is this Machiavelli? Be warned. "“Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are.” Niccolo Machiavelli, The Prince.

I don't know about Auburn, but in the past, when Mississippi State's defense bent against inferior opponrents, it tended to start breaking when we got into SEC play.

Actually WSU only scored 3 against SC.. their TD was a pick-6

** So you're saying we'd be as well off with Croom?
