You have to be a 247 member to read this article on Auburn Undercover, but I thought I'd quote one part of it and link it so some of you can read the whole thing.

quote:
In February 1982, Auburn signed Alan Evans, one of the most celebrated in-state running backs it has ever signed. He was viewed as the top prospect in the state that year and the top prospect in Auburn’s recruiting class.

He didn’t make it. Was Auburn’s recruiting class that year a failure?

fricking pathetic. Out of all the highly rated guys Auburn has signed over the last 40 years that didn't pan out he has to use Alan Evans as his example? Really?

Oh and here's some more AU delusion to enjoy with your brunch:

I’m tired of people lamenting the Rashaan Evans thing. I said at the CC he would have been the 4th best player in our class at best. This is the worst of Auburn fans to me. It wouldn't even matter if we lost him to UT or Ole Miss. By the way, the Williams kid we actually signed had more sacks last year than Evans, yet there is more lamenting of Evans than celebration of Williams. Not to mention the fact that the kid is all about himself. In case you were in a f'ng coma all fall, the team was successful because Gus ran off all of the self-important assholes that were only in it for themselves. The Iron Bowl is played in November, not February, get it straight. Like Colin Cowherd put on Twitter, none of these kids will be stopping Gus or Marshall this fall.
