Great JGT quote on Jovon Robinson, "He's a full-service bad arse."

I'm not saying we don't need RBs I'm just saying we have way too many other needs to have 2 of them in our top 5 key prospects.

A couple of updates from KN ...
quote:

Am told 4-star OL Javon Patterson is getting a LOT of time today with OL coach J.B. Grimes.
Good to hear. Unless, you know, like dRichmond showed.
quote:

2:02 p.m.: Tweet from ATH target D'Anfernee McGriff: “@Dmcgriff1: Auburn Scrimmage Was Geek!!! It Was Live!”
I'm assuming he liked it.
quote:

2:27 p.m.: We have a Kerryon Johnson sighting. Auburn hoping to learn more today from him about where it stands.

In case anyone was wondering the real reason why we did not hire Trooper back was so we could recruit Jovon again.

Kipp Adams, 247 nat'l insider, flipped his Jovon CB from bama to us . First one outside the "family" to do so.

"It was a good scrimmage," Richmond said. "They had good speed and everything. That junior college receiver is amazing. He had a one-handed catch."
Quote from Drew Richmond. Good visit. Nothing much to report. He likes the town, didn't think he would. Thinks highly of J.B.

James Daniels Ohio OC, on the other hand, came away from his visit with a leader ...
quote:

"I would say [Auburn] is my favorite because it's the only school I'm visited that has everything I'm looking for."

JD is a tOSU legacy with a tOSU offer. Don't know where he is on our board.


From KN ...

Four-star Sunshine State athlete D'Anfernee McGriff has a new leader after visiting Auburn.
That would be us.

Which dual-threat QB/Athlete y'all want?

Eta: Check that. He's being recruited as WR. And, of course, Wildcat QB. Coming back for A-day.

You might think. But actually this kid's got some weight and size and is a pretty strong runner. If Gus is going to run the wildcat, I hope he uses a fullback-like guy who can throw.

He's like a little Jerome Bettis who throws like Mike Vick.

Keith said yesterday we are recruiting him as a 3 back which I believe is a H-Back in our offense.

Per AUC AU Kerryon Johnson is ball parking May for a commit date. (As I said with Kim the other day BCW would do nicely.)

Also Drew Richmond said the AU visit exceeded his expectations. He went back and got extra attention from the staff after his interview. Word is his visit went very well.

Keith schmeith! This kid said this:

We talked about how I fit and they love me as a receiver. I can match up against smaller corners. I will play receiver, wildcat quarterback, just get the ball in my hands."

Pre junior day notes per AUC LINK

-Teammates 5* OT Martez Ivey and 3* FB Chandler Cox will visit AU for A Day per Cox
-Cox is now a take for AU
-They last visited Feb 22

-Staff still feels we are in good shape with top Strong Safety Target Jordan Colbert

-5* WR George Campbell is the top WR target on the AU board but staff not optimistic right now
-Still in good shape with Jayson Stanley
-Staff is high on 4* WR Tyron Johnson
-Texas leads for 4 * WR Jon Burt

BOOM.

Maybe not so much a BOOM as an 'It's about time he finally came out and said it'.
