I think it is pretty clear Thomas is our top target, Fournette is a pipe dream, and we would probably be happy taking any of the others

Zeke was never a natural QB. Cornwell is.

I have a buddy who knows Roc Thomas and he said Roc is Oregon's #1 and they're pushing him hard. Roc also apparently really likes georgia and is very interested in them. And of course he said he loves Auburn. Personally I think it's a battle between AU and GA. I can't see Bama winning him with their depth

Edit: His twitter name is GoldenChild? Makes me think of sunny in Philadelphia.

Yeah. Things may and probably will change but for the past few weeks I have thought between AU and UGA whoever gets Thomsa the other gets Nick Chubb. Both are very high on Auburn and Georgia.

And according to 247, UGA is one of the leaders.

I just cannot see this kid going out of state, especially from a power school in Lousiana in St. Augustine. The last kid to pull that off of his caliber was Joe McKnight to USCw.

Chubb and Fourtanette are pretty much unrelated right nowso these criss crossing the 2 players in posts is confusing to me. The more related players on what happens is Roc and Chubb especially if Roc is #1 on UGA's list.

Well just reread our posts it will make more sense.
I just pointed out Fournette is most likely going to LSU and 24 made that comment indicating Chubb is instate and a GA fan.

I got yours. 24 quoting something about Fourtanette and talking about Chubb is what confused me.

Auburn is his number 1 for now, and this is coming from 2 of my buddies that are good friends with him. But only time will tell if we stay that way...

No doubt. Ronnie and Cadillac all over again. In a better offense.

It amazes me the things u remember. But its possible All these duos are very similar. Barber and Ford is probably a stretch. And in all actuality if we got Roc, Barber and Roc would be the starters and that's as close as u could get to Cadillac and Ronnie.

If we continually pull in two athletic guys who each fill the mold of either Ronnie or Cadillac, we will eventually field a duo of RBs that are reminiscent of them. Law of averages. Not everyone can be busts (unless you have the Gene Chizik exception)
