I watched the game again yesterday, specifically watching Jake on the defense.  His play was so awful, I actually found myself getting pissed during the replay.  It was like a comedic routine.

There was a play in the third quarter where the player Jake is covering catches the ball, jake tries to tackle him and looks like a wet blanket...Thereize makes the tackle. It was literally unbelievable the amount of times he caught air and got 0 tackles.
You remember that one time where WSU ran the ball in the 3 hole (between the LG & LT), Jake had the angle as if the RB was going into the 5 hole (outside the LT)...but at the last second, realizing he was about to overrun the play he leaped backwards, nearly leg whipping the DT & DE in the back?

I completely get what he and his dad are saying.

It's why I haven't piled on. What do you want him to do? Quit the team?

The anger and rage should be directed at the linebackers' coach (Harbison?...Wait...do we have a linebacker's coach? I think I found our problem...) then Ellis, then Gus, in that order. For not recognizing that someone can do the job better.

I'm not a fan of picking on one kid as a scapegoat as if I can do any better. I couldn't coach better either, but at least that is someone getting paid to recognize talent or lack thereof vs. simply not being physically capable of performing at a level that is expected of him.

You do remember that is one of the reasons that this place started right? 

Pile on....Fuck him and his diddy.  They don't want to hear it?  Get better and or don't go on message boards.

Ellis Johnson is the LB Coach/DC. I believe Auburn should contact Ray Lewis to become the LB GA and make him an offer he can't refuse

Then Ellis is doubly to blame for playing him.

Eh...It's not so much about sparing him his feelings as it is, what do you really want him to do about it? Get more talented? Easier said than done.

The coaches on the other hand, can do something about it. Not play him.

Several years of worse than subpar LB recruiting have done this.  The current staff can only work with what they have this season.

He probably does great in practice, but under performs during games. He should concentrate on his studies and bow out like any respectable AU man (Kodi Burns). I'm telling you, the guy would be great on offense as a long snapper.

Coaching is an issue.  No question.  Josh Bynes started for the Ravens last night.  He could have been much more than he was I think. 

But... regardless of that? 

"Mah boy is tryin' his ding dang hardest, and folks criticizing him hurts his feelings..."

and

"They don't know what they're talking about"


Well screw both of them. 

Criticism comes with the territory.  His hair was stupid looking.   But other than that, the criticism is related directly to his play.  His play absolutely sucks.  It's not personal.  He's not doing the job.  I don't care if he's trying his best.  His best isn't good enough. 

And it's not just us criticizing him. 

We DO know what we're talking about.  My daughter loves Auburn just as much as anybody.  I don't want to see her at LB either, although I submit that in two quarters of play she could at least fall on a pile and get an assist.
