The one that Ron sanders has been commenting in, started by jtb or whatever? Yea, sure seems like he may have been forced out.

Well that is some consolation I suppose. As long as AUC gets a Good team reporter.
The only one I know I can think outside of JGT that I want with AU ties is Barrett Sallee but he just signed a new contract with Bleacher Report so I doubt he's available.

Who'ss the guy who wrote for The Columbus Enquirer? He seemed well respected.

I HATE Ron Sanders, his site stinks, IMHO he is no friend of Auburn. He started a lot of rumors, etc.

I'm not a huge Ron fan either, but the site is my personal favorite for recruiting information.

Ron said that BM was offered a raise and extension over a year ago and they repeated asked BM to sign and he chose not too. So once his deal was up they decided not to bid for his services...seems a bit shady to me. I dont know...

Looks like whoever they are trying to hire is currently under contract and they are waiting for it to expire to announce.

Looks like BMatt has been planning to leave for awhile then. Understandable on Rons end too unless he low balled his raise a year ago

247 has officially rebranded Kai Locksley as an ATH. They said they've been able to watch him perform in camps and ATH better suits him rather than QB. Oregon is the latest school to offer him as an ATh. 247 said they still think he may be able to play qb at the next level however grading him as a qb he would be much lower than his 4* status as an ATh.


I say all that to say this. We probably have a really good shot if Gus is telling him he can play QB while everyone else is recruiting him as ATH

Austin Penny is also no longer with AUC. This is a bit strange...

According to Ron he is staying...but this is just weird. They better have some homeruns up their sleeves or it seems they are going to lose a lot of subscribers.

With Phillip Marshall, Bryan Matthews and now Austin penny gone, I'm not really sure what I'm even paying for at this point


I'll wait to see who replaces them until I cancel my subscription

From the thread I just read, it looks like they just wanted new blood.

BM was definitely forced out from what Ron is saying.

He was a student, wasn't he?

Either way, I don't like this news. I really liked Bryan Matthews.

Based off his Tweets from an hour ago, it doesn't seem like Bryan Matthews is covering Auburn anywhere in the relative future...

Yea, I saw that too... Very weird situation.

Ron Sanders makes it sound like he has some good replacements in hand, so I guess we will see.
