Is there someone waiting in the wings at Apopka that the staff is after. I know Ivey and Cox were from there. I ask because it seems early to accept a 2*.
You know that site rankings does not mean a staff has a player ranked the same way. Yes we offered a kid from Apopka but I have seen no indication that we are ready to accept him. There are many, many lines in the water right now.

Seriously. WTF is going on?


I remember back when this kid committed discussing the possibility of not taking the kid. Seems he grew up an Auburn fan and we were his dream offer/school. One camp at Bama and BAM! He's gone.
He MAY legit have grown up AU but his dad & others are heavy Bama fans. Per BMatt expect Quinnen to flip to Bama soon.

So Bama just got some big QB commit which means all of Jawon Pass' contenders now have a QB already committed
Except Va Tech but looking at their insider notes he does not appear to be a top target for the Hokies.

Who is recruiting these georgia kids that we are losing?
All of the staff has territories in Georgia but Garner did lose Rochester & Quinnen. Interesting tidbit from AUC that T-Rob has taken over Marlon Davidson's recruitment.

Good lord. Has a school ever been in worse shape recruiting immediately following their big recruiting event than they were before it?
No & we are technically not. Getting Stove & Woody is a net positive over losing Quinnen & Marshall.

Lest we forget, said weekend also netted perhaps the #1 player in 2017.

Obviously, a setback...

He wasn't in Barton Simmons or any other rivals writer's top 11 performers. Spin that however you want to make it seem better

Isn't it funny how I will state my opinion, you assholes will call me a douche; then it turns out I am correct.

Here's what Simmons had to say after Saturday. Free blurb from AUC.




With Saturday in the books at the Elite 11, I liked what I saw out of Woody Barrett. The thing to keep in mind with Barrett is that he's on the early end of his development. I think he's going to be a fringe guy in terms of landing an Elite 11 finals invite. It could go either way. But that doesn't mean there isn't a lot to like. He's as physically advanced as any QB out there. He almost looks like a LB playing QB sometimes. The ball comes out of his hand with great spin and he has good velocity. All the arm talent is there. The next step for Woody is to continue to become more accurate and consistent. That's the only thing separating him from some of the other elite guys that were out there. that can come though and I think it will. The other thing I liked about Barrett was that he is having fun out there. He is a kid that seems to really enjoy the work part of football and he's got great energy.

Today, on Sunday, the defense is added to the equation so this will be an awesome test for Woody to see where he is and how effective he is fitting it into windows and going through progressions.

OK.

Not in the top 11 =/= the bottom.

How's that?

Edit: AA7 nailed it first.

If he was going to start for us this year, yes it would be, but he probably won't see the field in Jordan Hare for at least 3 years. Plenty of time for improvement.
