Again, will post most of the Q/A tonight after I get back home. Got to get back downstairs before Auburn takes the podium.
Some quick things:
* Tuberville on being picked to win the West: "If we can get the most out of this team, we'll give it a run." He said getting LSU at home and LSU's even more glaring uncertainty at QB compared to Auburn's was probably why more media folks picked AU to win the West.
* Bo Harris is leaving the team to transfer.
* Andre Wadley is back in Auburn and will have to start rehabilitation because he's lost weight since unknown heat-related illness put him in the hospital for about a week. Tuberville said they're going to take it slowly with him to look out for his well-being. Not sure exactly what happened, either: "To this point, there's been no answer to what happened." (I'd be shocked if he doesn't redshirt this year, but that's just my opinion).
* They're still waiting to hear on Reggie Hunt's eligibility. Ryan Williams is also questionable academically.
* Chaz Ramsey is not 100 percent and probably won't be. Tuberville said he's always going to play with pain and they'll have to wait and see how much he'll be able to do. He doesn't expect Ramsey to take a medical redshirt, but didn't rule out him taking a redshirt if that's what they decide would be best for him -- since he hasn't burned a RS yet.
* Mario Fannin is 100 percent healthy and ready to go.
* Tez Doolittle is about 95 percent according to the doctors (100 according to Doolittle). Doolittle and Raven Gray are both expected to be in pads when they start two-a-days.
* Tristan Davis is pain-free and without stiffness in his foot. He'll play with a metal protector over his foot.
* He thinks some freshmen will have to play, particularly at cornerback. The names he mentioned were Harry Adams and Central-Phenix City's D'Antoine Hood.
* Something that interested me was that instead of letting time decide how long they spend in practice periods this year, they'll go by the number of plays they spend in each period. It's because of the new offense. Because things move so quickly, you can run an inordinate number of plays in a normal 20-minute period and subsequently wear out your players. I'm sure I'll get to more of that as practice begins. It's a small change that most of us would have never known about/noticed, but I think it says a lot about the pace of the offense...

So that's all for now. Auburn's going on stage in a minute and I need to get down there.
