Q; The Coach said:
Why was wide receiver David Ausberry moved to H-back and
fullback Simione Vehikite to linebacker? How do you see both them at these new positions?

A: I have not seen this. But Ausberry's size has always led to questions about if he would play an H-back or tight end role.

Q: JAG said:
Which will be more successful:

A. Neuheisel's Bruins
B. Neuheisel's Brackets

A: The brackets because usually you can get 75 percent of the first-round games right.


Q: dtksr1 said:
Scott, thank you for all you do in being loyal to your e-mailers!
I, like you, did not get a good look at Lane Kiffin's offense last year. Since Kiffin has brought his offensive line coach with him and let Pat Ruel go, is that an indication he thinks his preferred coach is a better teacher or is there something else involved here?

A: There was definitely something else involved here. Ruel was offered the offensive line position at Tennessee last year by Kiffin. So what changed in a year? I think that just as it suggested to Kiffin that he hire Norm Chow, it was also suggested that he not retain Pat Ruel.

David Ausberry has no ability going after the ball if it is not put in his hands. If he can block and run with short passes H-back is great idea to best use him.

dtksr1.....really, explain it to me? How about why it was "suggested" he not retain Ruel? And by whom? Garrett? Again, why? Innuendo can be worst than giving an explanation. Now people can plug in their own thoughts. Was he incompetent? Did he do something unethical? Did he brake the rules? Come on dtksr1, stop be an appologist for shoddy reporting.

Trojan Conquest... I am not apologizing for anyone. It was reported MG wanted Kiffin to bring back Norm Chow. I have never heard of Kiffin's hire for offensive line before. Have you? When I asked Scott if there was something else involved in letting Pat Ruel go and beinging in a nobody....... you go ahead and read Scott's answer again and see where he said there was definitely something else involved who suggested Ruel not be retained. HELLO...............

dtksr1.............you're missing my point.
I was commenting about your "nuff said".
How could Wolf's comment be "nuff said"?
For Scott to give innuendo about someone "suggesting" to Kiffin to not retain Ruel without any details isn't fair to Ruel.
It opens it up to speculation that could be much worst than what really happened.
There's plenty more that could be said, like actually WHY.
