AUBURN
Gus Malzahn comments on Auburn's recent trio of transfers
It has been a tumultuous two days for the Auburn roster.
After senior tight end Jalen Harris on Wednesday announced his decision to redshirt and transfer, news broke Thursday that junior receiver Nate Craig-Myers and his half-brother Jayvaughn Myers also intend to leave the program. Tigers coach Gus Malzahn confirmed those reports during his weekly “Tiger Talk” radio show Thursday.
“We wish them nothing but the best,” Malzahn said. “It’s a new day, and I think you’ll see more of that in the next week or so.”
Obviously, the trio’s departure is a blow to depth at three different positions. We’ll see how No. 9 Auburn (2-1, 0-1 SEC) plans to plug those holes when it hosts Arkansas (1-2) at 7:30 p.m. Saturday.
Assuming “more of that in the next week or so” is referring to CFB as a whole rather than just at AU. Players who feel overlooked transferring is happening more than ever right now.
I hope that is what he meant! Don’t need any more transfers but yeah NCM was battling with Seth Williams and probably saw the writing on the wall
The only transfer that wasn’t beat out for a position by an underclassman was Tyler Carr, who left before the season started. Auburn’s current freshman class is probably the best one under Gus. Unfortunately, the older guys that got beat out have an incentive to leave early in the year now.
Just a sign Gus needs to go. Who wants to see a loser coaching your team. Gus is no leader he has no idea how to coach our team.
What does he mean exactly by more of that? I dont see kids jumping ship anywhere else ?
He means more schools will have this soon bc week 4 is here and thats the limit to redshirt.more upperclassmen will be moving everywhere
