I mean that's who I think we end up with. I'm just saying most people would guess we end up with that list, it's not really new info. Derrick Green would be a bold pick. Treadwell and Connor would be bold picks. But I don't think we get any of those three.

I think the reason we aren't doing anything is because Gus wants to honor the original offer. And I think Wilkins is staying put to reserve a spot in our class in case he does want to end up at AU. He'll probably stay committed until he's ready to make a decision on where he wants to go if its not Auburn.

I could see us honoring the commitment - no, wait, I can't, cause there are several we haven't honored (not trying to be a dick here, but this is Gus's m-o: Gus no like, Gus no take), but I can't see JW waiting to see where he wants to go. I mean, how long does the kid need? It's been ages. Get a clue already, kid!

Who hasn't he honored? No one has come out and said Gus pulled my offer. Most kids wouldn't go to a school that isn't recruiting them hard. I think Gus is just backing off the kids he doesn't want and hoping they go somewhere else but if they end up sticking with us then he will let them.

Why not Hardison? Why not Adams? Why not North or Clark as receivers? What about Nick Marshall now that Clint has quit?

Arshad, Jarrad, Irvin-Stills, who else...? I'm not arguing, it's his team now, more power to him.

The kid was eligible to play last year and did (poorly).
He was also injured in fall practice. So we are going to judge his ability off 9 carries? Awesome.

Did you see Ben Tate against Tenn Tech? He had 14 carries for 35 yds (2.5 ypc). Man, he sucks. He'll never amount to shite at Auburn.

I'm truly sorry for you people who have invested sentimental feelings and hope in this kid, what him having "seen the light" and all and transferred.
Ah, the old throw away line. I would say you're better than that, but I'd be wrong.

Why is a three star RB a "must get" for this class? Honest question.



I'd rather get Kailo Moore...don't understand why we haven't pushed harder for this kid. Great relationship with Melvin and has shown interest...

I didn't think of them. They would be too. I don't think we go after Marshall though.

We are offering 2 stars now? Did Tubby go to Cinncy or come back to Auburn? I only want 5 stars damn it.

This kind of shite scares me.

We are entering the possibility of not faring well with our top LB prospects as well as losing a recruiting battle to a school on major sanctions and can't go to a bowl in 3 years now

I think we got this 4* on the team who is really setup for a break-out year in 2013.

Jake Holland is a can't miss prospect.

Thus kinda shite bothers me. Watch the damn kids video before you just write him off as a 2* nobody. He is a fricking hell of a player!!! Legit 6'1, 230 LB that runs a legit 4.6 forty and is tough as nails.
