Aubserver Mailbag 67: Can Allen Flanigan get his offense going again?

This week: Good defense vs. bad offense, K.D. Johnson, a defining stat for the UT game, Ike Hilliard, HBO, Steely Dan and Cracker Barrel

SF Allen Flanigan (Jacob Taylor/Auburn Athletics)

Welcome back to the mailbag.

Before we dive in, I’d like to thank Painter for filling in last week. Between the Bryan Harsin fallout and the amount of extra work I had on my plate, I greatly appreciated being able to just edit a Friday mailbag instead of writing one. I’ve also kept him up until ungodly hours at night editing mid-week podcasts during basketball season, and I definitely don’t pay him enough for all of that.

And that’s why I would like to name him The Auburn Observer employee of the month for February.

(Just don’t expect a repeat in March.)

This week’s mailbag has a ton of basketball topics, a question about new wide receiver coach Ike Hilliard and some wild pop culture hypotheticals down the stretch. Let’s go.

At some point, does Bruce consider playing Flanigan fewer minutes, as he may be a liability on offense in some situations? Not that he isn't a great player, but he has not yet returned to form.
