There is some tweets that seem to be coming from info from his uncle that he might have been told to look around.

If so then I’m more than good with the trade. Very real possibility we keep every RB on the roster so don’t need to take two guys this class and I’m just not sold at all on Phat.

I think this is it. With Hunter, Alston and Cobb back next year adding Eziomume makes that a pretty stacked room. Not sure we even need another RB in this class.

I know Phat was close to being out of the class at one point anyway because they wanted him to get his weight under control (And Maybe grades too, but I'm not sure). Wonder if we had some second guesses on that too.

Weight still a problem, not taking grade seriously either.

Burnette just had a weird tweet saying he’s still committed but open.
That might hurt us with Alvin, 2025 RB. He just visited Miami.

I’d like to start seeing more guys come in with all these guys we’re “cutting loose”

Kanye Burnette sure sends out some dyslexic messages.

Weagle we bess hold onto our hats. Portal opens the 4th of December and 20th is signing day for HS, gonna be enough shuffling going on to make our heads spin.

I think that is a reason Ryan Williams is waiting til Feb, he wants to see who the QBs will be at certain schools, and cant blame him, he is 3 and out and will start day one.

I’m sure that’s an advantage. He said Feb if he reclassifies so that he can take official visits in January.

Makes sense

Yep. Hard to finish top 10 when you don’t have a full class. We should be processing as many current players as possible. Most suck.

It has seemed clear for a few months at least that Freeze isn’t taking just anyone from HS. From our perspective as fans, this sets up a huge boom or bust on early signing day if these flips don’t materialize.

We’re down to 15 commitments if we go ahead and remove Burnette and Collins. A high school class of 20-21 seems to be around where we’re headed if things shake out well for us. And I think with another round of transfers out we’ll be looking at another sizable winter and spring transfer class coming in for 2024

The On3 guys seems to believe Auburn will take no more than 8-10 transfers.

That’s a lot, though. With HS, that’s 30-32 newcomers come fall 2024, approaching 40% of the roster.

I’d have to look but I’d guess programs like UGA, Bama are taking 2-3 transfers in? I think that’s where we’d like to get to

Depends on our roster turnover. I also don’t agree with taking recruits/transfers just because, but we have players on roster that aren’t SEC caliber both from Bryan Harsin’s awful recruiting and Hugh filling out a roster.

Henderson is all Auburn. Just spoke with one of my sauces Sunday. He is just enjoying the recruiting process.

His recruiting doesn’t affect Alvin at all.

I really think Jarquez will be back next year and that’s part of the reason. Wouldn’t surprise me if we didn’t take a Single back in this class.

Guy likes to be called Phat, about to lose an offer because he can’t get his weight under control

And he doesnt have to deal with the bama backlash if he were to flip now instead of in Feb.

We will finish with 23-26 commits. We are trying to flip around 12-13 kids. I would think we get 4-5 of those. Plus you add in the Juco guys we lead for that puts you very close to that number.

If we miss on the folks we really want we will go for 8-12 transfers to fill the misses and shore up depth issues.

In the end money talks and bullshite walks.
