Any chance he gets his grades in order?

He may be under-rated.

He is very underrated but his grades are bad and he will not being going to Auburn.

He will be playing in the lower ranks for a few years.

He said he's committed early to focus on his grades, so it seems like he knows what he's got to do.

Great pick-up Auburn! Kind of ironic how we ended up getting D'Haquille Williams and y'all ended up getting Justin Thornton though. Recruiting is chaos

Good call, those Top 5 lists had to be taking up a lot of time.

Dameyune Craig will work his Mobile magic and get him to qualify.


I don't understand how players can allow themselves to not qualify because even if you had below a C average through Junior year, you can make up for it senior year if you take stupid classes and study for a minute on the ACT

If an athlete spend his first three years dicking around and ended up with a 1.5. Assuming he took the same amount of classes freshman through senior year, if he scored a 1010+ SAT or 22+ ACT, he would only need a 3.5 his senior year. If he could pull off a 4.0, he would only need to have a 1.33 his first three years.


Also, don't forget retaking courses a player failed and generally shady shite a la Jovon Robinson.

That should scare the shite out of you if he is JUCO bound.

Our JUCO : HS player success/contribution ratio in the past five years is ridiculously high.

(Cam Newton/Nick Fairley/BrandonMosely/Eltoro Freeman) : Corey Lemonier?


You should hope he qualifies

It's sad that it seems our players got better developmental coaching in JUCO than they did under Chizik

But with Craig, I expect Thornton to qualify. He got Chris Casher qualified, and he was just as bad as Thornton when it came to grades

He was saying Corey is our only non-JUCO player developed into a good player
