Title: A-Day
Post by: AUChizad on April 18, 2009, 03:21:35 PM
Reporting from my phone.

But goddamn, I'm on the Caudle bandwagon 100% now.

Burns has not impressed me one bit.

Caudle's long completion on the run was beautiful.  I hope he can keep it up.  He'll be good.

It appears that the race is on.  Burns had a couple of his dropped and they both have got lucky on a couple of others.

Caudle has a strong arm though!

Burns had some okay moments, but he also had some turrible moments.  A few swing passes looked like they were thrown by a 10 year old girl.

How hilarious is it that the bammer's game isn't playing cause of this Bulls-Celtics game going into OT (and possibly double)! :bugs: :rofl: :bugs:

There's gonna be some black eyes in the trailor park tonight...

**Onterio McCalebb led the rushers with two carries for 75 yards, including a 70-yard TD sprint. Ben Tate had 72 yards on four carries.

McCalebb was happy with his day -- and the offense.

``It is built for speed and to wear down the defense. I know one thing, we are going to shock a lot of people in the fall,'' he said.

Thats pretty crazy 6 carries for 145 yards

Mario Fannin was a bad ass today, if he stays healthy this will be his breakout season.

Auburn possibly made History for their A-Day attendance with 45,381.  I know the attendance today was more that the '05 A-Day attendance.

Mario THE MONSTER Fannin

Neil Caudle...he has more zip than Miracle Whip on his passes.

Ontario McCalebb...he's like Noel Devine, without the kids.

Mario Fannin...he will be playing on Sundays.

Here's an interesting quote from Walter McFadden.....

Quote
“I think this spring brought us together as Auburn. A lot of things started getting out of hand last year--a lot of group things--but this spring has brought us back together as one. The turmoil is the past. We’re moving to the future. The defense last year had the hard hats. We still have the hard hats, but now we’re just one.”
Hell Yeah.....I got my Hard Hat signed by 21 Players, most of them commented on how I was able to get an Auburn Hard Hat (Thinking that it was one of their's, lol) I commented back that they'd better keep the Hard Hat going, because I had to order mine from China, lol.

Quick rundown on what I saw today:

The biggest thing was the offense, which looked like it had direction for the first time in ages.  Did some really good things but I'd like to have seen the 1's running against the 1's all day to get a better feel for it.  The new system looks tough to stop.  It's not like last year where they seemed like they were trying something new every series.  This is wide open but everything comes off of 4-5 set plays with a wrinkle here and there.

Playmakers.  Null and void last year.  Fannin is becoming a beast.  Tate looked fast and fluid.  Onterrio made it move ...more than once.  The receivers still had several drops but still looked MUCH better than last year overall. Harry Adams dropped a couple but redeemed himself later.  Terrell on the fake option end around gave me a full on boner. Caudle was the better QB, hands down today.

Our OLinemen are all back to some serious playing weights with Ziemba finally listed over 300 lbs.  Franklin was a fuck for having all these guys drop big weight.  Our starting 5 are big and physical.  Desperately need to find 3-4 guys to step in behind them.  Low numbers on the line.

As I stated earlier, I'd go to war with our defensive starters against anyone.  We still don't have numbers but it was good to see guys like Savage, Wadley, Henderson, Bell etc. get good reps.  Goggans is a sick ass puppy.  Ricks and Blanc got big time push up the middle.  Didn't see Clayton play.  He was dressed out but wearing a baseball cap most of the time. Anyone know his status?

Chad was right about Alberts.  Solid little, do-everything guy.  Special teams looked good to. Overall, they look focused and actually have direction and a clear understanding of what they're trying to do.  Starters on both sides of the ball look damn good.  Just have to avoid the injury bug to be successful this year.  If they get some injuries, it could be a tough one. But, keep the starters healthy...and they could make some noise.

I was going to say the same thing....but, with a Lot less words, lol.  I was actually just going to say, BOOM MUTHA FUCKA!!!

Also, if any Auburn fans were wanting a Hyped Up type of Coach on the sidelines, look no further than Coach Troop.  I saw him chest, back, and butt bumping every offensive player after that reverse...especially the lineman that was downfield mauling the hell outta the Safety.

What Lee Ziemba did to that safety/corner made it move.

It was fun to watch this coaching staff work. No false starts! We had like 10 a game last year.
