Kobe Hudson is one I can remember.

What Im getting at is, its a new game now. You had better be keeping the ball rolling with recruiting and taking advantage of great opportunities when you get them. IE, Florida State going undefeated and was unable to capitalize on it. Next year will be totally different team



If you think we are immune to this type of situation, you are going to be disapointed.

It could happen and probably will. So we need to keep rolling

Dawson at CU and King at Utah we had high hopes for.


Nearly every savior HS QB we signed ended up elsewhere to "mixed" results.

Where'd DJ Williams end up? FSU?

He has transferred 12 times.


We also Lee Hunter go to UCF. I think we had high hopes for him

I definitely did. I thought he was going to be a great DT for us. He had an okay year this year at UCF.

Kobe spoke about not wanting to leave, but Harsin said he violated team rules or something? He dropped some passes here but he would have easily helped us beat some teams. Best of luck to him

This is what I get for not clicking on those "how'd former Auburn players do this week" articles

I’m starting to feel DL is our weakest link going into next year. And so far we haven’t really done much to fix that. We lost two quality players, if Rogers is gone, and Freshmen are freshmen.. and the DLine is not where you want to be weak in the SEC

I think that was an addition by subtraction to be fair. Bo Nix is the only one I can remember that stung

And in all honestly, if we were to have kept Bo, we would still have Harsin or would be firing him this year with a roster devoid of talent

yea, you cant really compare what he did there and what he would have done here with different coaching and conditioning.

He did make some great plays for them though.


And off topic but if you guys dont know. KJ Britt has been balling at Tampa Bay. Devon White was being a little bitch for a few games and Britt got the start. Dude was wrecking shite. I honestly think he could be a starter on most NFL teams. Ones that dont have Devon White and Levonte David in the middle

He has played great. He needs the right team fit, especially if he can be paired with another LB that is a little more of a coverage guy.

Given the way our corps looked this year, I would've rather had Hudson out there than a lot of the options we played.

His faults came to a head so quickly after that first year, that I don't think Bo would have saved him.

That’s not what I was saying. I was thinking out loud.

Forgot about Kobe. He was our best receiver. It will happen again, I’m sure. I do hope Auburn can keep the really good players around.

Keiondre Jones OG playing for FSU right now. He left because of the coaching change or Harsin.


For the most part we have been sheltered to keeping the guys we want other than Nix. It can happen. We can lose Williams or Perry or Coleman but the other team could also lose.... Saban at any moment. The constant fear mongering is retarded. Support NIL and then fear monger if thats your cause...

I came back from break and we have what is our greatest WR class in history what some other schools would kill for and we are being all negative Nellie focusing on how are we going to keep these kids happy and stay on? At some point of time, we need to develop some optimism and look at the positive side of things. No one has expectations of winning a NC next year but let’s not at least pretend like we are not better now than we were a couple of weeks back purely just based on talent on paper…

He had just as many drops if my memory serves me right. Thought he dropped three of them in the Arkansas game alone. I just remember being ho hum about him going to play with Gus

It would have bought him another year, maaaaybe two. But the lack of recruiting would have caught up to him in the end.

Roc Thomas transferred to Jack St. and played well enough there to get drafted
