The OFFICIAL 2017 College football RANDOM THOUGHTS thread

I don't think Willis is better than Woody at this point....or at the very least I don't think he's done enough to take the backup job. Barrett is already physically where u want your dual threat QB to be at and has a cannon. Now if Willis takes the starting job next year over Woody (presuming Jarrett lives up to the hype and is one and done) that would pretty interesting

I'm anxious to see A-day and get a look at both of them in action..... I do think Willis could just be more of a Nick Marshall type for us...I don't think Woody will be as quick as him. They're saying Woody went 0-4 with an interception in the scrimmage. Defense could just be that good, and he could have been going against mainly first team defense, but they won't tell us all of the details....

I saw a post that was talking about what if Nick had Chip as an OC in his time.....and I'm not gonna lie, I partially nutted after conceiving that. I mean an OC with actual creative plays for deep shots instead of just streaks? Someone who taught footwork? Nick would've been a god damn god.

Lol LSU secondary won't even be top 5 next year. Best secondary we've ever had at Bama by far

Everyone in the secondary were highly recruited 4 and 5 star, they're not experience, but someone is goin to rise up to the challenge. Just like the year Tre'davious White and Rishard Robinson became starters

Nick wasn't as good of a passer as this guy can be though......This guy could possibly be like Deshaun Watson-lite for us. Already better than Nick was at this point in his career (even though Nick was a defensive back at Georgia in his freshman year). Only thing to do is wait and see.

I understand that, its just the progression Nick made from year 1 to 2 would've been amplified by quite a bit with an actual coordinator. Maybe we could've got some of those great passing performances he had alot earlier

but yeah Willis is nice with it from what I seen, him vs Gatewood in '18 will be interesting

lol Woody needs to transfer from Auburn if they are already slandering him for a scrub freshman

Toliver is nice but I don't think he's elite like White, Peterson, etc. And Jackson isn't that good imo

Dual threat QBs @ Auburn hitting open receivers?

Nah I'm just fukking around nice pass, good to see JF3 is actually breaking dudes out here too. I heard he was nice in the scrimmage but I didn't see any film till now.

Yeah, that'll add something that's been missing with the wide receivers.....He might actually have a future there, more than anywhere else.

White wasn't elite till this year. Jalen Collins was trash till his last year. DB development is difficult to project in college.

Dudes too damn fast to not exploit somebody on a wheel route or a reverse pass. Hell give him some of those Jeremy at QB, Marshall @ WR plays that we've abandoned for the past 2 years. If there's one thing JF3 could do passing, it was launch it deep. Alot of things he can do at receiver

Ironic that Kodi was in the same situation and now he's the wide receiver coach....coaching JF3

This is all discussion...I doubt Woody is far behind the guy if he is. I doubt if Stidham went down rn that Willis would take #1 reps (ignoring Sean). But it isn't illogical for a freshman to be better than a 2 year returning. Isn't that exactly what you've been begging for the past 3 months?

Yes it is when that freshman is a 3 star scrub listed as an athlete on all the recruiting sites. Not even a dual threat. Have y'all even watched any of his highlights? He can't throw at all his throwing motion and mechanics are fukking awful. Looks exactly like JF3 tbh. Don't even try to compare him to Tua lmaooo

Is it just a custom for auburn fans to hype up shytty QBs only to be majorly disappointed?
