Well, hey there. A lot of stuff has been happening around the Auburn athletic department lately. But, don’t worry, none of this stuff is that stuff. This stuff is just football stuff, from this morning’s outing on the practice field. Believe it or not, the football world is still spinning, and Auburn actually has their [...]
Auburn powered through another spring practice Monday morning, donning full pads (but not hitting) as the second week of spring camp began. Post-practice, Gus Malzahn and select players were made available, touching on a wide, wide range of subjects. It’s going to be a mixed bag today. And it’s going to be another quick mixed [...]
The Auburn Tigers were back in Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday for the first time since last fall, and for the first time this spring, it was the real deal: full pads, full contact, and even some 11 on 11.

Hi, I’m Jerry. If you’re a newish TWER reader, you might not know me. I used to write here a lot. I’d like to write here more often. But at least I’m writing here today. In two parts: Seasonthoughts: the Reboot I didn’t see the new Spiderman movie. I have a daughter, now four weeks [...]
Everyone always says that the first football game of the season is like Christmas, the night before like Christmas Eve, and this year Auburn fans will have a big prime time matchup against Clemson waiting under the tree. But when you think about it, maybe the beginning of football season is more like Hanukkah — [...]
SEC Media Days is still going strong on its third and final day at the Wynfrey Hotel in Birmingham, but Auburn’s allotted time at the annual frenzy has come and gone. Gene Chizik, Philip Lutzenkirchen, Emory Blake and Corey Lemonier represented the team in front of droves of media members on Wednesday. I wasn’t among [...]
