3* TE Zach Sheffer committed to LSU. Was on AU radar at one point. Seriously LSU is saying no to no one right now

Sheffer is talented tho just crazy how many they are taking this early

Just checked. LSU has 21 commits but only 2 in the top 100. We have 6 commits and 1 in the top 100. Very curious to see how that class finishes up

Shea Dixon said yesterday he expects them to lose a few currently committed including 1 of the top 100 prospects Anderson back to UGA..

4* OT Christian Armstrong just committed to FSU

KN seemed to think we were making up ground tho admitted Nolea would be tough to beat. I will be honest I am ok on missing on him. Has struggled at every big time event this spring.

Really hoping we can steal Qadir White out of NY

Steal from who? Not many tier 1 P5 offers.

Here's a statement you don't here everyday...Our 2 best chances at OT are probably both from New York, The aforementioned White & Juco Badara Traore.

That's why I said steal because we don't usually get kids from up there

I would be very happy with that OT class. Wish we could land Barnes but that seems like a longshot

FWIW an AU source says 4* RB Dameon Pierce is an AU lean right now. Likely an AU-UF battle right now.

Bout time a RB wants to play for us in this class

FWIW I think Pierce is a solid back. Not fancy but will do fine in our system and should make some on here happy because he's 200+ lbs

Considering how run heavy and RB friendly out offense is it's honestly disgraceful how long it's been since we've signed a 5* RB, or just an elite level 4*

Honestly, I'd rather steer clear of the 5* backs. Auburn doesn't have a good track record recently.

It's one of those things that I don't worry about but does irritate me. I get why elite players at pretty much any other position might hesitate but RBs should be fighting to come play here

Why Zamir White wants to play for Jim Chaney makes no sense to me

FWIW KN is on vacation this week so might not be as much info coming out. The Opening is next weekend I believe so expect more Fields "sources" drama

I've learned not to get too upset with how these kids handle the recruiting process or where they land.





That said, I'll be salty as frick if we can't land Bo's nephew.
