Just canceled my 247 sub because it's supposed to bill in two days. Gonna wait and see what's going on before I decide whether or not to stick with it.

Also 247 team rankings are very easy to find.


That's not my issue. My issue is that the composite is the ranking they put at the forefront. You put your product out there and say...This is the best ranking, and then the composite is secondary, but that doesn't seem to be the route they're taking.

I love the composite rankings because it gives us a look into what every site thinks of the player. We all know some sites are more biased towards certain players...


If 247 is the far and away the best, as so many people say now, why wouldn't you want to just go by what they think? Why does anyone care what scout and espn think if they're so bad and 247 is that much better?

It just seems contradictory to me to see people dog sites like scout and espn and then talk about the composite like it's the greatest thing to happen to recruiting in the same breath.

AUC article says Montavious Atkinson is committed, but still looking around due to us having 3 possible Star commitments right now.

Colbert, Atkinson, Sullivan

Colbert is more likely a Safety but it's a possibility he moves to STAR

There is a plan, and was told I/we would be shocked. I tried to get a bit more detail but I believe they want things set in stone before any announcements are made. They were pretty convincing. Also learned Ron is more connected to AU than I thought.

I would be fine with Atkinson looking elsewhere. We're going to have a log jam at Safety / Star

Maybe Barkley is taking the Basketball Beat? THAT would be shocking, and awesome!

Two 1st round picks won't hurt the recruiting efforts going forward.

Starting next year, I expect we will be putting a bunch of kids on that stage each Draft. On both sides of the ball.

FYI, Marquell Harrell is a smart kid. Takes AP classes at Creekside HS!

Every time I read "He Gone!" I hear Chi-Sox announcer Hawk Harrelson saying it. The peril's of a childhood with a lot of White Sox games on WGN.

Top Prosh Back target Chandler Cox is visiting AU this weekend per Allie D. It will be his 3rd visit in 3 months. AU and UF are the only ones with multiple visits right now. 4-3 UF but since AU offered it's 3-1 AU FWIW.

Regarding Jovon and Eric Swinney, Swinney said today that AU told him they're only taking 2 RBs, and when asked if he could commit to Auburn, he said he doesn't know and needs to find out. Just further proof that we're looking very good for Jovon
