Thanks Andy!

I have to ask you......I am getting the feeling that we are starting and building something really special this year. I have been a CHIZ fan forever and i am excited about his vision. I can't shake the feeling that the coaches are putting off a vibe that starting from the ground zero (learning how to practice)is something that will not fully materialize this upcoming season. In the back of my mind I kepp telling myself that this will be a 2 year process coming to glory next year. I just wonder if I am the only one who is not setting the bar too high too soon. I hope my fellow fans are wise enough to give this time to gel!

Am I reading to much into things or what?

I will say this: I've never covered a spring practice that wasn't brimming with optimism. Yes, Auburn's coaches have seemed to do pretty well early on, but who really knows until they start playing games?

I remember covering Virginia last fall, and the coaches and players all talked about what a great fall camp they had leading into the season, the best they've ever had. And what do they do in their opener? They lose 52-7 to USC.

So I'd withhold any kind of judgment until they start keeping score.
