re: 2015 Auburn Football Recruiting Thread

Just saw a Picture of Burt's family at UA practice and his little brother has an Auburn shirt on.

I know it doesn't mean much just thought I'd share

I don't think we have any common defensive targets with LSU or A&M so probably no effect for us

I was really hoping that A&M would whiff on their DC choices. All TAM needs is a decent defense and they will be legitimate contenders, not 9-4 pretenders.

Won't happen as long as Sumlin continues to only let the D go up against the scout team

Is this Gus's problem to this point? I had heard that he really limits the time that the defense goes against his offense.

This is just my opinion, but LSU made chavis more so than chavis making LSU... Outside of maybe one or two years, his defenses underperformed given their talent at Tennessee... and he' brings nothing to the table recruiting wise.

And to me honest, his defenses have really sucked at times the last two years...

Well, above average is right in Chavis's comfort zone.

From JC Shurburtt on Colbert

3. Colbert could be a great one- Auburn safety/outside linebacker commit Jordan Colbert (Griffin, Ga.) is tall, has good range and excellent ball skills and displayed that on Tuesday- his first practice. The nation’s No. 13 safety prospect per 247Sports Composite rankings may not end up at outside linebacker as some project him given his range, speed and ball skills. New Tigers defensive coordinator Will Muschamp certainly will find a home for this talented athlete, who (at least from what I saw Tuesday) is underrated.

And Rivals on Colbert, who they ranked #6 for the day and #1 DB

Thanks to a paperwork snafu, Colbert was forced to miss Monday's practice, but he made up for lost time in a hurry on Tuesday. Colbert was all over the field while working at safety and made an incredible play to make an interception while helping from over the top. The big-hitter didn't have much of a chance to lay the lumber because there wasn't much contact, but the Auburn commit impressed with his ability to move in the open field.

If he comes to Auburn he will be playing the 1-tech. No way at 6'2 335lbs he is going to play the 3 tech at a h high level constantly. His role will be to take on two blockers.

---

Won't play at 335lbs at AU. He'd be about 315 and would be ridiculously quick if he did get down to that weight. He absolutely possesses the quick twitch to play the 3tech and get up field.

Terry Godwin bond getting "stronger" with D. Craig. Momma Godwin likes Gus

If Craig makes this flip the meltdown on UGA boards will be hilarious to read

Chidi will choose between Bama and AU. Likes the fact that Bama puts players in the league. Likes Cristobal too. As for AU, he likes that Grob just got drafted high.

---

Need Reece to in 2nd or 3rd round. If we can point to back to back seasons under Grimes of 1-3 rounds OL draft picks that should help fight the "Bama puts guys in league" bit. We are gonna be stacked at OL for next few seasons tho

Also the more I watch Cowart the more I want him. Place him opposite Lawson and that is a disruptive pair. I am really hoping this isn't 2012 NSD all over again where we finish #2 for everyone on signing day. It seems already we have done that this season and with guys like Payne, Ivey, Burt, Cowart, Thompson, and Godwin it just feels like we are running #2 for all of them
