Anything about how the visits went yesterday?


Haven't seen much. I know Durrell Robinson brought a lot of family with him. One of the Auburn On3 mods said Thompson arrived around 9pm, so pretty late. He's here today as well

Nakos @On3 confirmed QB Jackson Arnold is expected today. Nakos says he and Wiltfong have learned Auburn is heavily prioritizing him.

Not sure if that's indicative of how Murphy's visit went or if it's even accurate - who knows

Guess there's a stomach bug running through the football complex

Fong loves him some Auburn. Not surprised he is close enough to get the bug.

I think I decoded it: apparently Nakos is reporting that we are "heavily prioritizing" Jackson Arnold.

I’d like to get Murphy but that’s why I said the other day won’t get exited about it till it’s done. We may miss both these guys and end up with an unknown.

I think it’ll be Jackson. We had some better options but different things kept them from happening.

We’ll definitely take JA just so we aren’t caught with our pants down with no qb, but it wouldn’t shock me if we make a run at another QB if they enter the portal after bowl games/Playoffs.

Jesus. “Different things” what does that even mean? I’ll be surprised at this point if we get 1A or 1B.

Arnold has a high ceiling. Even if he doesn't pan out, it looks like Freeze is adjusting to the portal world. I like it.

Who were the better options?? There have been exactly 0 100% day 1 difference makers hit the portal so far.

And we're 2 days into the portal window and haven't been spurned by anybody? Mensah and Castellanos (LMAO) are the only kids to commit anywhere so far and there was no indication we were in on them.

I could quit my job from the money I'd make selling Xanax to you mfers.

I'm not hating, just stating the facts

every time we were close to landing a QB, something happened. Which is how we ended up with PT. He was a pretty late addition if we all remember, April 30th

Freeze will either not allow it to happen again, or end up canned

The worst part was Freeze not making the portal QB compete for the starting position. What if Deuce comes in and is better than the rental QB? Is Freeze going to give the rental the job so he “doesn’t press”?

Let's not start this shite again. You know he is going to come back and tell you that Robby Ashford would have beat Thorne out, but Freeze never gave him a chance! (just like Cristobal, Harsin, and now Beamer).
