First and foremost there would have to be a JUCO cb worth pursuing which isn't the case every year.

I really don't understand the interest here. He will be a hard pull and it really is not a need. Guess it could be Saban fricking with LSU some more.

He appears to really like Florida State too. I don't know their scholly numbers, but they are going "Ole Miss" in this year's class. They already have 27 commitments and look like they will take another 4-5.

Supposedly Rashaan Evans was going to stay home from school for the next couple days with him staying out all week a possibility.

Now with schools shutting down anyway this won't get much attention, but I certainly found it interesting.

Oh, and according to the Auburn recruiting thread our coaches offered to pick Roc Thomas up last Friday to bring him to Tuscaloosa but he declined.

Not positive, but I'm not sure they're allowed to pick up a kid like that. I doubt the validity of that claim. Man, I thought LSU had issues with Bama. AU goes above an beyond anything LSU fans have ever done. LSU does it on 2-3 recruits a year. AU is insecure on all recruits.

They aren't, yet some over on Auburn board of this site and AUC will believe that shite.

You have no idea. Just yesterday one of their recruiting "experts" deliberately left off all the information regarding Rashaan Evans from an Auburn board because the last sentence directly coincided with what a Bama mod said.

They bashed the Bama mod for it, but due to the poster's "crafty" summarizing ability 90% have no idea that their own mods are saying the same thing.

Nope. Same guy that "forgot" to include the Evans' information yesterday. He definitely made sure he "suumarized" the Roc Thomas piece of garbage though.

I spoke with Alan Evans this afternoon. I can confirm they held Rashaan out of school today because of all the pressure on him right now from people at his school and in the community.

The Evans family said Rashaan have to make the decision on where he wants go not where everyone else wants him. This is his decision.

Auburn is out of school on Tuesday. They were going to hold him out regardless. The family will decide if he will return on Wednesday or possibly stay out until he announces his decision.


Why would someone feel the need to "hide" from Auburn pressure if he was such a lock to them?

That's truly sad that someone would put that kid through that. I remember it was about the same way for Grant right before he committed. You would think people would just be happy a local kid has this kind of opportunity.

They truly are a special bunch. Only one fanbase on this site does not allow rivals to post on their board. Guess who that is?

Some of them are good fellas, but as a whole they are some of the most paranoid people I have ever encountered.

They have some comedic gold responses on the Help Board when someone requests access to their board.

He actually supports a lot of requests from rivals who ask to post on their board.

He and I had a few run-ins in the past, but we've seemed to turn a corner for the better. Then again, I did get Bucc banned and called out Magilla a few years ago.

Maybe I was a little to testy in my younger days.

I think we've all had a run-in with him at some point, but that was mostly in the past.

I dont care if it is our fans or Aub fans, no kid should be pressured about a decision like this. Sure, I would love him at Alabama and think he would thrive in our defense, but I would only want him if it is where he wanted to be. It would not be fair to us or the player to be pressured into a decision that he would regret the next 3-4 years. If he wants Auburn, then it should be Auburn. If he wants Bama, then its us, but let it be his decision! RTR
