Reduced from low 3* JUCO DLs to 2* JUCO DLs.

Remember when this was going to be one of our best classes ever?

I see where this is going. Hopefully Gus and crew can turn it around. But it is not looking good.

Yesterday I laughed at being reduced to going after Wavnelski Aime. Today I cry because we couldn't even sign him.

Y'all didn't want him yesterday. Bitched about offers and that he's a 3*. Now he commits to FSU and it's a big miss

I have been wanting us to go after local talent (3* type guys) to build depth and restock the shelves. It seems like a waste to go after big names when we are missing so much.

Looking at Rivals top 25, 11 players are going out of state, with 6 undecided. UA and AU would always lock the state down. Not sure what is going on.

I didn't want him yesterday, today, or tomorrow but when you can't even sign like your backups backup backup plan you know you're in trouble.

There usually aren't more than 10-12 players per year in the state good enough to go to Auburn or Alabama.

Better get used to us getting lots of JUCOs that someone else has developed for 2 years cause we are severely lacking.

Of those 10-12, the top 3-5 want to go to Alabama and 10-12 are fringe SEC talent at best

That's not right. Just looking at Rivals state of AL ranked players 10-25, some have commited to AL, Michigan, Florida, Florida St, Tennessee, South Carolina and Ole Miss. Alabama's first commentment is ranked 8 in the state. There are 25 players in the state of Alabama that are 3* and up. No reason to take a 2* from Florida. Other SEC schools seem to value these recruits.

True, but have any of them ever done anything?

The best player we ever stole from Bama as Everyone's Favorite Bust Craig Sanders and his big kickoff hits.

The normal MO for Auburn is

1-Be in top 3 for out of state kid
2- Ignore in state kid while pursuing OOS kid
3- Miss on OOS kid
4- Get rejected by in state kid who feels neglected/second choice
5- Get stuck with FL 2*s
