We need to recruit better. Plain and simple.

I dont want to hear the we are in a bad location anymore. Tennessee and Ole Miss have built competitive teams. Auburn plays second fiddle to Bama and is probably the 5th or 6th choice in their region and look at the team they have.

We pay these guys millions and our recruiting is garbage. We need better recruiters on staff.

You may not want to hear it but it's 100% true. All three of those teams are in significantly better recruiting grounds than us. Our location will always be our biggest detriment when it comes to recruiting.

0.02% Pacific Islander

Baton Rouge:
40.8% White,
50.4% Black or African American
0.5% Native American

Protip: Get used to mediocre recruiting, I doubt even Saban could recruit top 15 classes here.

I couldn't agree more. Bret is going to have to bring in better football players or Long will be forced to replace him. We got destroyed on national TV. We sucked at every facet of the game. The team looked like they were just going through the motions. That's the first time that I've seen one of Bret's trams quit. If nothing changes then we're going to be just as bad next season. We're in trouble until we recruit better players.

We need to go the Ole Miss route.
