re: 2023 Recruiting

JC Hart is supposedly smart- holding offers from Yale, Dartmouth, and Penn

Yep, I think I read that his GPA is 4.2

Smart good, clean off the field and super athletic…I’m excited to see how he turns out. Auburn being his dream school makes it even better.

We have offered couple 2023 juco OL today. Elijah Phillipe and Isiah Jatta. Jatta is committed to USCe but played juco where Keionte Smith played juco

It’s funny that you think Air is the most influential person in all of ATL

More that I think handlers don't like being burned.

We’ll pull the dang trigger JT. He could have been 1st to accept but he didn’t.

Am I missing something

Good idea

This is the truth and it’s bothered me for years. Obviously Saban has pulled a ton of elite prospects for YEARS now, and they’ve won multiple NCs and Heisman trophy’s because of it, but I swear they’ve had more PRODUCTIVE 3* guys come through than all other SEC schools combined. When they identify a 3* guy, chances are pretty good that we’d kill to have him. Saban identifies talent so well that the recruiting services had to literally change their formulas to keep up. Don’t know as much about UGAs roster but I’m sure you’re correct there too.

Dukes posted an update on Hughley:

— He was close to flipping to Auburn, but Dell caught wind of that and then UGA including Kirby put on a full court press for him.

— Hughley is still in frequent contact with the staff

— UGA has picked up their contact and won't let him go without a fight

— Friend has been in contact a lot more

— Hughley said his heart is in Athens but feels Auburn may be a better fit as far as need and opportunity

— asked if the commitment edit was real and said, "yeah I was close" then was asked if he was going to use it soon and responded with "go dawgs"

— he may not make a decision until February

— playing with his Langston Hughes teammates isn't a big of a deal anymore as it was but him playing with Air is.

— he expects Hughley and the other Langston Hughes teammates to visit during either the Penn State or LSU games depending on which one Love OVs during

— Hughley has a good relationship with Ruzic and also mentioned Zac

— Searels has been blowing Hughley's phone up


Dukes moved his confidence from a 9 to a 5

I've heard something similar, but for the life of me I just can't seem to remember where lol.

Air had tons of time to commit.

He was planning on committing. Then news of Posse and his visit came out of no where and then he committed not long after. Noland understandably wanted to take a bit of time to process everything, but said he had no problem being part of a 2 QB class. Then this week we find out the staff are the one's deciding not to take 2 QBs next year though. Its not Noland that didn't want to be here.. he was told one thing and then something else happened, still wanted on board and then we didn't want him anymore and instead want Emory Williams.

Well if Bo and Noland are a combo and both wanted AU they should have committed. Strange story. Plus you can’t tell Posse no to wait on Noland and Bo may never flip

---

They planned on it until the staff decided instead of taking Noland they would switch it up and take Noland and Posse and then switched it up again and said they want Posse and Williams.

I agree on Posse and taking him. Zero problem with that and he's a good prospect. The issue is going from selling Noland as being the guy to deciding to drop him from the class all together in a matter of days. He was ready to still come as part of a 2 QB class until we said no.
