Auburn Fans Criticizing Jarrett Stidham after a Slow Start to his Season
It is no secret that Auburn’s star Quarter Back, Jarrett Stidham, has had a shaky start to his season, but have some Auburn fans gone too far criticizing the Junior from Texas?
I spoke with Auburn Expert, John Ledkins about Stidham’s start to the season and what Tiger fans think of it. Ledkins said, “Every fan-base with high expectations gives their QB criticism, I do think that he is a good QB, he just doesn’t fit our system (right now).” Ledkins went on to say he wouldn’t put much weight on the Tigers blowout victory against SEC foe, Arkansas, “I mean they just lost to North Texas 44-17, and Auburn beat them by less…”
I wanted to get multiple opinions so I also asked my good friend and Auburn Expert, Jacob Waters, who had this to say, “I mean he (Ledkins) is right but wrong at the same time. The way we’re using him, as of right now, doesn’t fit (The System). But, if the Offensive Line gets better and maybe is just a little worse than it was on our win streak last year, then we will be using him correctly.” Waters went on to say that he agrees that there is some overreaction among the Auburn fan-base.
The Auburn fan-base is divided right now, and we all know Auburn is at its peak when the fan-base is united as one. So in the end, Stidham has struggled a little to start his season, but if he can get some momentum, the Tigers will be a major threat to get to Atlanta for the SEC Championship Game.
