a few more wins and were looking at possible playoffs last year, even with poor Qb play.

Ifs and buts, my friend.

Personally, I believe the whole team ethos under Hugh was so poor they just weren't capable of winning with any consistency. Time after time, the team would get in good enough position to compete and screw it up, with each screw up even worse than the one before.

(I'm not discounting the effect of the blown calls that happened, but they do happen to everyone and good teams find a way past it)

I love a good story as much as the next guy, but the reality is these kids and agents will just say "OK, we'll go somewhere else". Where else was Larry Bird going to go lol

I mean, he's not wrong. Commitments in the NIL era (unless it's a diehard fan) are more and more performative. On the field results and final NIL numbers seem to have way more impact than summer commitments. Doesn't hurt to have them however.

I think whatever spell Freeze casts on recruits and their families works in just about every era. However, he could not coach them at all.

I think Calvin Ashley was our highest rated offensive line recruit, but we know how that turned out.

In the NIL era, until the pen hits the paper I don't consider any recruit committed.

Cmon man, don't celebrate over injury even if someone left us.

Has Broome been injured or is he just not getting much playing time?

Looks like he had a knee surgery in February and is still recovering.

Auburn is the only SEC team still playing BTW :pimp:

Definitely looks pretty awkward. Accuracy is going to be a concern, especially trying to drop it over the shoulder of the receiver with a DB on his tail.

I don't disagree with you that it looks awkward but in his two full time starting seasons he hangs around 65% accuracy which is good enough for college. Granted those were not seasons where he goes up against the SEC full time, but all kinds of weird releases work at this level that don't translate to the pros.

ea, that has always been a knock on him. It is almost a bit like Byron Leftwich's throwing motion.

---

It is an odd motion, but not an issue at the college level. If he wants to be more prototypical NFL QB he has to address it though.

Looks like he was trying to work on his distribution skills, those are important for a guard.

Yeah, Pettiford didn't live up to his or the teams expectations. I think he might go try and find a team composition closer to the one last year. It's clear he is miscast as a PG.
