THAT’S WHY HE WENT TO JUNIOR COLLEGE
The immortal Irons Brothers of Auburn, proving that math at Auburn is challenging indeed:
“90 plus 30 doesn’t add up.”
“For real?”

In all fairness, math is a lot, lot harder when you don’t have a midget in a suitcase on you to slip you the answers. That’s precisely why I tanked my Chemical Engineering exam today.

#2, #3 – I did as well first, but follow these easy steps to understand the video:
Step 1 – Mix Hennessy, Hypnotiq (or failing that, anything that will strip the paint off of a truck).
Step 2 – Drink.
Step 3 – Watch Video.
Repeat steps 1-3 until the desired effect is reached.

Auburn fans, you can at least take solace in the fact that Alabama had no one drafted over the weekend while you had 5 guys taken.
What in the world was Mike Shula doing down there to cause this to happen? Even Northwest Missouri State had someone drafted this year.

10: Castille and Hall are NFL talent with discipline problems. Seems Saban didn’t develop them to full potential. I bet there are a bunch of recent recruits wondering how some ALL-SEC players under Saban didn’t get drafted…

Excuse me Stewardess, but I speak jive says:
@13-
oooh- best QB in the state?!?!!?! So he is, at BEST, one of the top 50 QBs in the country (not likely, but best case scenario). i wouldn’t lead with that…

crimson daddy says:
NAZT,
You can look at it both ways. Seeing as how they didn’t get drafted, one can say that Saban did “coach ‘em up” to have them named All-SEC.
And Castille was All-SEC in name only. Kareem Jackson was by far BAMA’s best corner. Simeon’s going to have to make a move to safety to have a shot in the NFL. I think Gilberry and Caddell have good shots at sticking. DJ Hall has attitude issues, but I’m glad they all chose to play at BAMA, nonetheless.

when the guy said 90+30 doesn’t add up, he means it doesn’t add up to 100 as in 100% of a vote. as in if i get 90% of the vote it’s not possible for you get 30% of the vote. get it? not really that difficult for someone without an agenda.

Well, we do have like 30 QB’s, so I can understand a lack of interest by us.

Bama is killing Auburn in recruting. We have the # 1 QB in the state and Saban has done nothing but recrut the top playas in the state sincehe arrived. auburn has fallen off sharply and they will be lucky to beat Ole Miss now that Orgeron is gone. If Barner fans think their cow college morons can compete with world class football coaches like Saban then they are dumber than the pig shit they shovel.
Even with the most unfare NCAA sanctions in history aubies had to git luckie to beet bama most of the time.

I mainly talking about his lack of interest in us, should that be the case. However, when your probable QB starter is a Soph and you also have 2 (prob RS) freshmen QB’s, you probably aren’t looking for them as actively (desperately?) as if you’re in Alabama’s QB situation.

April 28th, 2008 at 7:29 pm

MiseanAUFan says:
My bad, I did said “by us,” but I did really mean it more from the perspective of him looking at us. My point was we have many QB’s and none are SR’s and most are Fr or Soph’s- it discourages potential QB recruits from looking at us, as well as giving us less incentive to seek QB’s, especially when it’s like, I don’t know, 275 days before signing day.

God damn people, lighten up. Yeah, both of these guys are morons. So what. I knew a lot of morons that got into college without an athletic scholarship. There are morons as we speak on the campus of both Auburn and Alabama. What the fuck does that prove? You’re just pissed because these morons are going to be making roughly 100X what you (or me) will ever make and it sucks ass because I’m way smarter and have to sit in a fucking cube all damn day just because I’m a slow, fat white guy. Life’s not fair. Get over it.

What I find funny is the indulgent pleasure Bama fans get out of their self-titled ‘recruiting victories.’ I guess they need something to cheer about. For the rest of the SEC, the fans usually wait until their team wins on the field over someone besides their own scout team.
Good luck in 2008. With luck, you might even break .500 again, but only because of the likes of Tulane, Arkansas State and Western Kentucky. At least you don’t have to play that rolling ball of butter knives; La Monroe.
