Hey Charlie5, thank you for taking out the trash. I think your take on the hit piece was spot on, and I appreciate your willingness to air it out. Your restraint is admirable. I don't think I would be as gracious as you were. So, kudos to you for being a gentleman. The world would be a better place if we all would follow your example of being respectful. Thanks for another excellent show, and as always, WAR DAMN EAGLE!
Great rant, I feel like sometimes Auburn people are too nice and forget to protect their people in the process. I listen to that interview and was shocked that those questions were asked on our home turf-PROTECT THIS HOUSE!!!
When I saw that presser I thought who is this guy and what a jerk. I really felt for Durkin. Look out for our players and coaches in our house. Thank you for addressing this!
This is how scared Alabama is without Saban. They have a blindfold on throwing haymakers. Sure they got a couple big commits. They are throwing the bank and trying to keep the persona up of the mighty Bama. Stay cool folks. It will work itself out
True Journalism went down the toilet when the computer came to town. As far as a hit piece on Auburn Football, that's been going on since Coach Bryant was at Alabama, so what's new???
Birmingham NEWS printed pics of Shug picking his nose … nothing new, but seems like we could stop it…ESPN’s agenda needs curtailing too.. And I can guarantee you he was incentivized beyond his love for the TAHD..
What’s even more suspicious is DJ DURKIN was going to be Nick sabans defensive coordinator had he not retired. This article would not have been written had saban hired DJ.
He handled it much better than I would have. I think that's what the writer was hoping for. For him to explode and then it confirm his bias and give him a soundbite - C5
What drives me crazy is when Brian Kelly was HC at Notre Dame they forced a student to film practice on a hydraulic lift in 60 mph winds that blew it over and killed him. ND was found at fault “The details were released as IOSHA fined Notre Dame $77,500 for six safety violations tied to Sullivan's death, including knowingly putting its employees in an unsafe situation. The junior from Long Grove, Ill., was killed when the hydraulic lift toppled in gusts of up to 53 mph while he was filming football practice.” No one says a WORD about this egregious negligence!!!!!
I absolutely love your opinion about the reporter and Durkin. It pissed me off immediately too. I love the fact that you report the truth and you aren’t scared to give your opinion. This is why I love your show.
Hope everyone else has let Durkin know we’re happy to have him here. As far as the idiot that basically attacked him on camera yesterday, I wouldn’t answer another question from the guy!
I’ve been an Auburn fan for 40 years. This is nothing new, the state of Alabama sports media is mostly pro-Bama / Bama fans and use their platform to actively help Alabama and hurt Auburn anywhere and everywhere they can.
I hope freeze has a statement in a presser to come to Durkins aid. As a rebuttal to the beat writer. I think they took the article down i cant find it. I had some comments for him when it was posted on FB i called him out
Keep shouting this at the rooftops C5. It’s ridiculous. Put the heat on the AU people who keep allowing this. It’s happened over and over again. AU fans are tired of it and won’t stand for it. Living in bham as an AU fan you really get the spin cycle but to allow it on your own turf is something else
Do yall remember when everyone was raving about Chad morris? We’re gonna average 40 points a game. I think shedrick Jackson said our passing game will be unstoppable.
@@AuburnDaily_I’m just being a negative fan. Everyone is pumping up durkin like he’s going to work miracles the same way Chad morris was going to make our offense unstoppable. It’s just the same every offseason. Everyone is awesome. I’m sure durkin can coach but I see a glaring weakness in the front 4. Take #15 off the d line and it’s a conference USA level d line. It’s so hard to win with no d line, an average o line and no qb. Love the show though. Auburn needs some positivity and your show gives me hope even if it’s only for a minute.
The little sister school up the road is so scared of high freeze and co it’s unreal. Saban saw the writing on the wall with almost losing to the worst team freeze will ever have and can’t compete with us in nil so now they have to try to make up all kinds of BS to keep them relevant
Just take a look at Michael Casagrand's face..then realize he has been a beat writer his entire professional life ..and he works for AL com.. his life is terrible enough..let's not pile on
I don’t understand why we let any coaches or players get in front of the media. I could especially do away with coach freezes postgame press conferences where he deflects and says things like “ I didn’t have any input in the gameplan this week. “ I don’t think about the games until 15 minutes before kickoff “. We have nothing to gain to put coaches or players in front of a microphone.
So if this is Durkin’s “second or third chance” then we can say the same about Saban. Albeit a death isn’t involved, but Tuscalooser was Saban’s 4th chance. MSU, LSU, and a failed NFL career.
The Durkin thing is stupid and should not be propogated in anyway. But this speaks to one of the problems with fandom, particularly in rivialries. If Bama had hired him, Auburn fans would be bashing the hire in the same way and it would be just as wrong. Fandom by nature I guess is hypocritical.
@@AuburnDaily_ I believe you, as you seem to be really balanced in your perspective. That's my point, the hypocrisy goes both ways. There would absolutely be plenty of Auburn fans bashing it. Not all, but plenty.
One: the article is an opinion article. So, you can expect opinions not necessarily facts. Two: it’s not a hit piece, because Durkin was let go amid questions of toxic culture at Maryland - specifically related to the strength and conditioning coach - backed up by statements made by players. If Durkin allowed that to go on, then he was supporting a culture which was not looked upon favorably. I assume he did as he was let go. Reading the ESPN article gives a somewhat harsh critique of Durkin and his response to a player’s death when season workouts began. The questions raised are no different than what should be expected of any coach hired at any major university wherein they had some difficulties at previous stops. Plus, when you add that Auburn hired Freeze, who had his own issues of a somewhat “moral” nature, it becomes even MORE expected.
Perception is reality. If AU wants to change its reality, it has to change its perception. By allowing this type of negativity into your program you are continuing to allow this narrative to continue. People look at this and say “Same ole AU” lol. Different coaches. Different AD. Different president. Different players. Same ole AU. It’s ridiculous. AU has more people looking to bring down the university than Alabama does. That’s just a fact. Be better. Do better. See better. WDE.
No what you do is control the narrative and information which is what we have a whole damn department who is tasked with that. It doesn't happen at programs who are serious - C5
