Yeah. If we’re going to grab someone from south Crackalaky, let’s tamper and bring Duckworth back hAUme.

Jordan signed with us first, so clearly they were his second choice and we turned him down.

Am I doing it right?

We are getting close to the point of beggars can't be choosers and Jordan is a step above that... but forgive me not being overly excited about a guy coming in as the new CB 1 going into his senior year with 0 career ints.

Spin it however you want, but we def downgraded at the CB positions.

I guess the OL from USF is coming. If he's a back up thats fine, but he shouldn't be a starter and I have to wonder if he's coming as the back up C does that make Ellis the starter? I don't think he's ready. He needs time to get stronger.

A. Head said that Center from USF was going to need a waiver to be eligible.

He had the 3rd highest forced incompletion rate in the Big 10. Since when were CB's ranked based off of how many interceptions they had? Carlton Davis only had 1 interception in his final two seasons at Auburn.

Maybe he's the best coverage corner of all time with the worst hands of all time.

Cheng Du used to be one of my top places to eat when I first moved to Auburn.

Cam Newton could transfer in and some of y’all would still find a way to bitch about it

He had as many pass breakups in one season as Crawford has in two. I know you weren’t going to be happy no matter what happened but don’t just cherry pick a singular thing to make your argument. Interceptions are one of the lower things most care about when it comes to an outside CB. Otherwise you’re grossly overstating Crawford’s value.

I believe Jordan had a roughly 50% completion percentage when thrown against. That’s is really solid.

Personally I think I have a nice wife when men stop trying.

If QBs keep on trying to throw at a CB's direction there is something else going on.

I will take my 1 INT cbs if they can lock down

And yet one is coming to a team that hasn't had a winning record in years and the other will be suiting up for a team that was in the playoffs, so you tell me who is rated higher.

Jordan would have been CB 3 at best last year. Probably CB 4 and now he's our top CB going into next year. We we're supposed to have saved all the money letting these top transfers walk and I'm just not seeing that come back with incoming players so far.

This is the Blue Print Auburn needs to be following. Really the blue print hasn’t changed but more so shifted. Age equals wins.

Think about Auburn’s average age with basketball last season. A tremendous run with a lot of overlooked players but out aged the field at 23 years.

People keep talking about HS recruiting like it’s the end all be all, and to an extent it is but it’s more about getting the right program guys. Get guys who buy in to the program out of HS that will be willing to stick around or wait until years 3-5 to play. That may mean some are lower in stars but I think you can find the Toodles out there too.

Then go get a bunch of other average (out of HS players) players playing their 4th and 5th year.

Strawman. Not a single person has said he is or is not better than Crawford. Just pointing out your hyperbole is beyond ridiculous.

May have been 2nd, unless a game after this tweet changed it.

Every sunshine pumper's use extreme hyperbole about players leaving are losers

players coming in are upgrades

Trinidad was the ringleader with his "look guys yall are whining about players on 5-7 teams"

Ive yet to see Trinidad mention the backup edge at Missouri might not be an upgrade to Amaris
