For every Cohen or Perry there’s guys like Jakobi Albert that get dropped. Just part of the process IMO
Very true, but in fairness to myself I've also been critical of that as well. I completely disagree with the way the staff has either dropped people or just stopped talking to them out of no where.

Is Caden Story not signing anymore? What is up with him. Late to the party if its already been discussed.

Yep. As far as I can tell, only Clemente has Auburn here?


Didn't he also have Perry still with AU, as late as last night/this morning?

Signing in Feb. KN hears from a good source that he’s still sticking with AU. On3 guys aren’t so sure.

This is one reason I like the early signing day. It forces teams to put their cards on the table a little sooner and give the players a chance to find a backup plan. Better that we kick Albert to the curb now, with a month to find a new school, then that we do it at the last moment when all the teams are full.

Officially:
“Too rushed to get a ceremony together”

More than likely:
Begging for Bammer

Word is he may still be signing with Auburn in February, but it's as clear as mud right now.

No but you're investing hours of your time and energy into following their decisions and get super serious when you feel your work is being de-railed.

I guess you feel targeted


I mean I'm used to it so I'm not really worried about what anyone says about me on a message board. In this case though I haven't said one negative thing about a recruit in a very long time so if it was directed at me it was misdirected.

We're all here on a Internet message board way more than we should be so we're all weird in our own ways. If a guy wants to bash a recruit they feel acted like a punk who cares? Kid is going to bama, f him and all the others.

I’ve been following Bama recruiting for the last few months and I don’t think I’ve seen Caden Story mentioned once.

He’s more likely to go to UCF than Bama, IMO.

For whatever little it’s worth, I don’t really believe the thing about not being able to throw a ceremony together.

I’m not sure why he’s delaying until February but all I can go on is what KN says. KN says we wouldn’t doubt this situation if we knew the source that’s telling him Caden signs in Feb

Unless something else comes out from someone that’s not Clemente then I wouldn’t get our hopes up here either. Just doesn’t look like it’s going to be Auburn

Also worth mentioning that we could get transfer news today. I think someone said we might learn about one later

I do agree with that part, its still shitty, but its not as bad as getting that news right before original signing day.

For those of us who could not keep up with things today


Sum up the day? Good, bad, about what expected. Get someone that we didnt think?



I see we are up in the top 15 but what about needs? Other than Oline

And because of how Clemons handled his recruitment.. he won't catch the same heat that Perry is catching, even though he's arguably a bigger need/miss. Amazing how not being an arse works out like that

I wasn't emotional about Perry, I just knew he wasn't sincere with his post.

Pretty much dead-on in terms of what we expected. Only thing that’s as out of nowhere was 3* Jakobi Albert getting dropped.

Pretty good day. We’ll add 4* DT M’ba on Friday. And we’ll need to close out in Feb with some OL and a guy like Citizen
