Sooner or later, Auburn or Florida will hire the right guy and get back to top form. I really think Golesh is our guy. I find it hard to imagine a scenario where Golesh doesnt make Auburn better. Hopefully it will be enough to keep him.
As others, every new commit being a WR or TE is has to have their position groups full. We HAVE to fill the OL so for me no news is better than news of us signing some scrub.

Washington was easily the best back in the portal to me.

Cobb/Washington/Davenport is as strong of a 1/2/3 we’ve had in the past 10-12 years or maybe longer.

I’m honestly surprised he’s still on the roster.

Was wondering if this put him over the ledge. If not they think he has ability

That's a good get. Both of the RBs we got are better than Robinson. I have no idea what Nix was doing with RB recruiting, getting scrubs from UConn.

I don’t doubt his physical ability at all. He’s skilled. I do question his work ethic and dedication it takes to be competitive at this level. Hoping he gets his head on straight.

Let’s hope Nix carries his crap recruiting tradition on at Uat.

Nix tried HARD to get Cobb to follow him to UAT and you see where Cobb is now.

kinda shocked we pulled this off. He probably could've gone to several places where he wouldn't have to share carries with as many other talented backs. Good job Golesh.

I actually think that may have been a selling point. He’s had a Ton of miles the last two years.

We still need OL.

What's the scoop on the two OL we are going to get from USF

The center from USF is decently rated, but obviously it's against lower competition. He'll be a good place holder for kale

Could be wrong, but assuming this is the Shamar Arnoux kid from FSU.

Ghost also said we're expecting the following. My guesses are in ().

3 OL by Monday (Best, Skinner, hopefully Tegra Tshabola)
1 WR (Noah Rogers possibly?)
1 RB (Washington just committed)

I’m still hoping for a surprise Bo Hughley or Ty Haywood. We let guys go to save money for elsewhere. It’s time to use that money.

Hate to bring bad news but...

Haywood has been predicted to the turds. he flipped from them to UM out of HS, so looks like he's headed back there.

Hughley entered the portal but a search shows nothing about any potential visits anywhere or any predictions to any schools, so this one is up in the air for now.

This is an insane stat!! I’ll gladly let Coleman, Perry, and Howard go for this kind of production.

I wonder what, if any, this pending lawsuit against the NCAA will have on the Deuce to Ole Miss narrative.

Apparently, Chambliss had signed a 5 million dollar deal to QB at Ole Miss next year, contingent on his getting the waiver. He wanted the waiver because of his 2022 season. He experienced mental trouble and has nearly 100 pages of medical documentation to back it up. The NCAA declined it. Now, he is suing them.

What does Ole Miss do? If they splurge on Deuce, and Chambliss wins his suit, they’re on the hook for two high dollar QBs.

Do they hold off on Deuce? Take a chance on Chambliss winning the suit?

The portal window will be long closed by the time this case gets litigated.
