quote:Well jucos are typically not rated as high as high schoolers. We have 2 & need them in the class because of OL recruiting the past few cycles. Regardless of rating 1 & maybe both are expected to win a starting job next year. 2 of our high school 3*s are very high 3*s & could easily end up 4*s.
I understand the numbers. However, our guys seem to be rated a bit lower than I would like. Just courious if we are confident in our coaching, or rate our guys higher?

You weren’t specific so it’s tough to know what your thought is.
JUCO guys are JUCO guys. Both were highly recruited. Buskey is probably a day 1 starter. Both incredibly athletic with Buskey being a former basketball player and Zierer having played soccer. Zierer will need more work
Both of the HS guards are top 20 guards. Both were 4* guys when they committed.
Cohen is a 4* OT. Another big framed, great athlete at the position.

Interesting nugget from Hunter Adams on commit Brandon Perry. Per H He’s not at Bullock County any more. He’s at Park Crossing this season. That's a big step up in competition.
Hunter coaches in state & writes the Know The Enemy articles for AU rivals FWIW.

Saw that as of tonight Ojulari is still undecided. Time to coach G to come though in the clutch for us.

Why would you set an arbitrary commit date months before signing day if you were undecided?

My thoughts as well. When does he announce today?

Each school only has so many slots they are taking each cycle. If you had a favorite school, they may give you a date their comment is good for.

In some cases sure but outside of UGA none of his teams had that type of leverage over a player of his caliber.

I refuse to believe we miss on out another recruit to Tenn of all schools... If they get him today, which its looking like they will, I still think we flip him later.
We need to start finding some DL in this class though. I know its still early so I'm not panicking or anything and Garner is a good closer, but we shouldn't be having to completely depend on that. We have 1 guy committed on the DL and its not like he's some major prospect.. He's more of a project than anything right now imo.
Edit- Its official. He picked Tenn.

Meh. Other schools say the same thing about Auburn. Different things speak to these kids about each place.

Auburn is at worst 5th best in the SEC... I would say 3rd best ahead of LSU and A&M though. The only team I can say for sure that Tenn is better than is Arkansas. We have to win those battles imo. Thats a 5* T and 4* DE, that arguably would have been our best DL recruit this season, in back to back years.
No doubt LSU is going to turn the heat up on Webb even more (I'm sure we will too) so its going to be even harder to land him. Mckinnley Jackson is waiting on a bama offer and anyone else (That we know about) is currently committed to other schools. To say we have an uphill battle recruiting DL this year might be an understatement.
