I noticed how inarticulate players were. I'm sure they are smart kids and I understand the Southern dialect but can teams get speech coaches?

Smh. Sorry to jump on you, but comments like this reeeeaaaaalllllyyyyy get under my skin. In the essence of the word "inarticulate", those players were far from it, especially Jameis. Jameis expressed himself distinctly and got his message out clearly to his teammates, coaches and the viewers. Was it formal English? Hell no. That's just Southern colloquialism. I still see people who can't distinguish lose from loose. My rant for the day

We've had our share of guys who've sounded like a box of rocks when the get infront of a mic. Anybody remember Rod Sweeting after the Sun Bowl?

And that is my issue. We equate someone who does not speak formal to be dumb as a box of rocks, idiot, thug, or my favorite not a "TECH man/material"

Speaking and writing well are learned skills. I just wish someone would teach these skills, and the kids would be motivated to learn them.....oh well....that ship has sailed, I guess...

But if you cannot communicate that intelligence to others, the intelligence, for the most part is wasted.

No, impressive is beating up on a bunch of lousy teams and having folks think that's impressive. Awbarn may have had the worst coach in Div 1 football last year, they had decent talent last year, just as they have this year with a much better head coach. They are still only 1-1 against quality teams this year. The remainder of their schedule is mediocre at best, 6-3 Ole Missy is the ONLY team in the mediocre at best group that even has a winning record. As I said impressive............or it is just because they a sec, sec, sec team?

among other things-what they got different was a new QB that their coach made into something special-unlike ours
btw- we didn't exactly play a murderers row
I 'll bet awbern would beat us like a rented mule if we played them

What's wrong with a speach coach?

Or maybe a QB that grasped what his coach wanted and brought his athleticism into the scheme along with a fair to middlin' running back and a solid O line. Oh and where did I say anything about Tech's schedule or how Tech would fare against awbarn?

GT might kick their ***. We roll every little team we face. Maybe I'm mistaken but Aubie looked kind of small to me (relatively speaking)

I think we can safely lock this thread up with other threads dedicated to Auburn's offense and the education of college athletes.
