I wanted him at AU, but it all worked out.

AU has roots with South Carolina. Shug's wife was a gamecock.

Bentley is awesome.

Like most posted I don't think he and us were ever that serious, but things may have gotten close had dad stayed on staff. He was looking at Stanford hard, and we preferred Procisse I think. He is a great QB, and everyone expected him to be, but especially after the JJ thing and with Procisse committed at the time we never got real far with Bentley and started wanted more runner types at QB

We got 500+ yards on Missouri.

Us.

Florida.

You know, no offense U.

I wouldn't get too high on him just yet. He could easily come to Gainesville and ball out, but you guys are really jumpin' the gun.

This person had never been to Opelika. It is strong Gump territory. They resent existing because of Auburn University, thus Gumpdom.

Only running QB's work well in Malzahn's offense, didn't want.

He fell on the board once we signed bringing the Woody.

They were both very classy people.

Shug was a WWII hero.

Exactly. Kid lived most of his life in South Carolina. He moved here when Gus hired his dad.

His dad was hired by muschamp.... that's the only reason he's at USCe. Hardly a "steal".
