Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Not saying that I don't trust your math skill but I'd prefer that Chizzy double check this.

The further along they get into summer practices without naming a starter the more my predictions lean to 5 or 6 wins.

So, you'd rather the D look as hopeless as the QB situation right now?

No. I think people are just expressing well-founded trepidation.  There are plenty of reasons to doubt an offense that looked unstoppable in 2010 and 2013, looked pretty damn good for most of 2014 and 2009 but has also looked like two blind chickens fucking a frozen biscuit most of the rest of the time.

No.  Did I say anything about offense?  I'm addressing this statement from hit and run Starship.

"the whole oh yeah "D's looking good crap"

Most have simply said the defense could be pretty good.  So, because many think we'll be improved on defense, that equates to "We're gonna' suck like 2012"?

Yeah, okay.

Not so fast.
We can have a NEAR shutdown D similar to some LSU had in recent years just not go Les Miles brain-dead in some kind of a contest of wills between two proud institutions in an epic struggle for liberty and justice for all.
In other words, throw the goddamned ball and do some things to keep the opposing D's guessing.

This is what I think K alluded to several days ago w/o the Miles reference. Snaggle, I believe disagreed. So yeah Kaos wins.

Umm....no!  You believe wrong.  Have I ever even hinted that I disagree with mixing things up on offense?

My prediction has been simple.  If a QB steps up, we're going to be pretty damn good.  As in 9, 10 or better. If we get the same shittastic play at that position as we did last year, we're back in the Ham and most likely on another coaching search. 

It's not rocket surgery with Gus.  It's nothing real deep.  It's not outside influences or Jay Jacobs or the BOT or something that changed to realign the stars and the fate of Auburn football back on a dreary night in November 2014.  It's not a change in the quality of hash browns at the Waffle House.  If he gets good QB play, his offense is almost unstoppable.  It's been that way all the way back to his days at Tulsa.  If not, he gets what he got last year.

That's the key, nothing more and nothing less.  His hits and misses are well documented.  And that's on him.

An above average run game was also a key component to that QB play. Without it, too much will be expected from White and others. It's not all about the QB.
