KJ Bolden’s 247 profile says he’s locked in an OV on 6 October - our bye week.

Absolutely. Nobody is coming here for the fat bags we’re giving them

Riddick grew up an auburn fan. His grandma willie saw a vision of Aubie while they all held hands in deep prayer during a brAUther Hugh visit

























And the fat bags of cash

Jokes aside, obviously Auburn isn’t just outbidding everyone. I don’t think that at all. But we are finally putting up competitive deals. And we’re also just out recruiting these schools in tandem

I think Auburn fans especially get a little insecure when it comes to the idea that we get a few guys because of the money. IMO, it shows the alignment that has alluded us for a really long time.

Folks will try to sell you this folksy story about how these guys read the creed and fall in love with the vision and money has morning to do with it. It’s just all old fashioned hard work. But that’s only half right. We’re putting up the funds now too, and the non money stuff is winning us a lot of battles with equitable deals

Everyone else is paying up. We either join the party or get left behind.

Yes man, Alabama is poor and he's only coming here because we have WAY more NIL money (LOL).

His offer is the same dawg; we didn't blow their offer out of the water or anything to get him to come here. What do you think, we have limitless pockets and Alabama can't match? That's what you think happened?

Recruiting is still a thing, believe it or not. The two guys you named (Faulk and Lew) are really bad examples of what you think you're trying to prove. Neither of those two recruits were mercenary signings. You make it sound like those two didn't even know what Auburn was and then we "threw the bag".

Simple Jack made my point for me. Thank god

Never said Auburn outbidded anyone. But that’s your mindset which is the problem.

There’s too many Auburn folks like Meta that get their panties in a wad about money and Auburn. Fortunately we’re also flipping that script too

Yup. Folks like Meta will try to sell you a dream about these kids turning down all sorts of cash to buy into the creed.

Reality is that we’re offering equitable deals now and that Auburn is playing on a level playing field for the first time in the NIL era

Well, it helps having a HC that doesn’t absolutely despise NIL too.

THIS ^^^

Before the NIL the "other schools" had the funds to do whatever they wanted and get away with it "wheels, jewelry, selling memorabilia, chargers, mom a job at the law firm, moving the entire family from the island etc". Thankfully, the NIL has seemingly given a chance and evened things up for the good guys.

WDE!!!

Hell, even Tony could claim that Auburn did him wrong for firing him mid season, but Harsin has nothing but Auburn cash lining his pockets. Tony pissed me off because he wouldn't shut up about what happened years and years after tubbs canned him


Most anyone with basic football knowledge could have designed an offense as good as Franklin's.
He was a d-bag from the start.

Has anyone else been having lock-up and loading issues with Tigerdroppings lately? Seems like a week or so.

Could be all this traffic associated with big cat tying up the entire net in the southeast

I see Jude Foster played tackle in high school, has a wing span of almost seven feet, he could play tackle with arms like that. I think you will see the OL recruiting energized after this weekend.

I really hated it that Franklin did not come for the weekend or LJ McCray could have been the difference maker. Someone said Franklin was in Miami and it was his 5th visit? That doesnt bode well.

Franklin is a clone of another MS man, LC Greenwood. Really really like to land him.
