Cowart didn't ever consider us before Muschamp showed up. I fail to see your point

My point is that Garner doesn't deserve credit for either Holland or Cowart. Shouldn't have to spell that out, Weagle...

Lawson was likely always coming which is why I said locked in. Adams was all but gone right up until his last visit.

Russell was a great close. Lambert was one of the worst DE to ever play at Auburn recently. Awful scouting job.

We're talking about recruiting.

Muschamp got Cowart and a Holland. Tega is now an OT.


We still closed on them and Tega was recruited for Dline which is what we're talking about here.

So yes, last year was the anomaly. Thanks for doing the leg work to prove it.

Got it.

You must not remember that cycle at all. There were serious concerns Lawson was gonna flip as he was visiting Tennessee. Clemson was the favorite for Adams and Daniels seemed like a pipedream. They all visited that last weekend before NSD and all signed. It was a big deal. No one at that time new Daniels was gonna be a dumbass

quote:

Lambert is so bad he earned a spot on the Bucs roster and started 5 games for them but that has nothing to do with recruiting or not. That's a development complaint

quote:

Cowart definitey but we were top 2 with UF for Holland. Muschamp helped seal the deal. Sure Tega is now an OT this season but he was recruited as a DE and was considered a nice pull at the time

Every year on NSD Garner has landed 1-2 of our top DL targets. If you wanna argue that we are bad at evaluating top targets that's fine but doesn't change the fact that of the guys we want Garner usually gets a few of his late.

This also doesn't take into account the fact he fought off Bama for Davidson & Ohio State for Jackson last year before they enrolled early. I know you have this hatred for all things Garner but he isn't as bad as you want him to be and he is a damn good closer

I find it funny 3 of us have different memories of that recruitment

Bottom line is he was thought to be going somewhere other than AU until the day before NSD

For some reason I thought Derrick Brown said that but I get all these guys mixed up over the years. FWIW his mom said she thought he would pick Clemson
quote:

“We kept asking him like, ‘Mon, where are you gonna go?’ And he would just say, ‘I’m ain’t gonna tell y’all. Y’all are just going to have to see on signing day.'” Lonchella Adams said. “We thought he was going to go to Clemson. But when he pulled out that Auburn hat, we were like, ‘Wow.'”

If yall need something to melt over it's sounding like Clemson is pushing hard for Devan Barrett and he might take an official there in late January

I doubt it.... Jang said Barrett wasn't an 'elite' RB.

Yes I do. Thanks for paying attention. If only lowspark was half the poster you are.

I won't melt until we replace Barrett with a 3* backup plan and one of y'all fricksticks still considers it "filling a need" like filling a need with any swinging dick would suffice

And "we wanted him all along" ....That's KK's line.

There definitely are guys that are 3* that we "wanted all along"


If a top guy we clearly have targeted goes somewhere else, we are on a backup plan. Even if the guy is legit, he still is a backup plan
