** Head coach Gus Malzahn made a beeline over to 2019 OL Clay Webb and Pierce Quick, top in-state guys, before the game to say hello. They were already with offensive line coach Herb Hand.

** Quick now says Auburn has pulled even with Alabama. Just a 2019 recruit, he wants to visit Oregon this summer and will be at Alabama A-Day.

** Pleasant Grove safety Myles Mason is developing a good relationship with Auburn secondary coach Greg Brown. Auburn is recruiting him a safety. He says Alabama and Auburn are recruiting him the hardest. Mason has a top five of those two, LSU, Clemson and Florida State and is just waiting for the right moment to commit.
Apparently this is more of a battle than I thought. Not sure how high he is on AL's board

** Seemed like Gatewood made it a point to hang around Ross, one of the top WR to come out of the state in a while. Looks like an Auburn-Alabama battle with Ross.

** Mountain Brook RB Harold Joiner was decked out in Auburn gear and told reporters that Auburn and LSU are still leading. He had said that Alabama, Georgia (when offer comes) and Ole Miss are also in his "unofficial top five."

** Four-star Jackson-Olin DL Coynis Miller was asked which players he likes to watch or model his game after and the first two names he rattled off were Da'Ron Payne and Quinnen Williams of Alabama, if that means anything. Looks like Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Georgia, Ole Miss would currently be top five but he wants to make more visits. Miller should be at the Alabama A-Day.

** Memphis OL Jerome Carvin made his first trip. Seemed like he had fun. Visiting Alabama soon. Not terribly close to narrowing things down. Auburn likes him as a guard.

** Lithonia, Ga., three-star defensive end Caleb Tannor is starting to blow up. Auburn has offered him recently along with Alabama. Those two and Georgia are three sticking out, but he has more visits to make.

** Auburn QB commit Joey Gatewood says he's only going to play QB this year for his high school. He's very solid to Auburn, not taking any other schools and says he'll get Justyn Ross to join him.
That's big news. I still have high hopes for this kid because he's a freak athlete

** Ross wanted to see Auburn throw the ball and he got his wish. He was pleased.

** LaGrange, Ga., four-star linebacker King Mwikuta has Alabama as his leader, with Georgia and then Auburn behind him, but the 2019 linebacker was pleased with what he saw. He thinks he'll commit somewhere around this time next year.

Ok that's it for now. I imagine more info will come out later tonight and tomorrow. All in all a good day for AU. Saw a return of a passing game, landed 2 solid commits and sounds like wowed a few of our top targets. Evaluation period starts next week so things should stay busy recruiting wise

Chances Ashley can step in and play this year?

He'll play this year. It may be mop up but Ashley will play
Posted on 4/8/17 at 9:09 pm to AUtigR24
My guess is he's that #6 unbalanced OL we like to use. Same spot Braden Smith, Robert Leff and Mike Horton worked at before starting
Posted on 4/8/17 at 9:17 pm to TigerPaw1
Florida State now has 3 commits from Grayson High School all in 2019 class. Same high school Owen Pappoe plays at and they leader for him as well. Pretty crazy
Posted on 4/8/17 at 9:26 pm to TigerPaw1
KN reporting 3* Buck Caleb Tannor and 3* WR Anthony Schwartz are staying night in AU. I think Gatewood is as well
Posted on 4/9/17 at 12:52 pm to TigerPaw1
Well this is interesting. 4* WR Jacob Copeland stopped by AU today and apparently told JLee he's down to AU and UF. It was thought last night he was down to UF and Clemson
