Not to beat a dead horse but this one seems odd. I would like to hear a SEC fan perspective outside of AU and uat.

Coleman a 3* in April commits to AU. After the summer he is elevated to 4* with offers from several schools including bammer. He shows no interest in bammer and continues to take visits but says he is 100% Auburn (so does his mother). He does very well in all-star game and is elevated to a 5* by a site run by bammers (hmmmm). He visits Ole Miss and Ark. with a scheduled visit to UM the last weekend of recruiting season.

Two week ago bammer's class starts to falter with the probable loss of the DB to Clemson and Stone probably headed to UT. Bammers in the know say they have Coleman if they want him. I laughed because Coleman had no interest at that point. Coleman announces a mid-week visit and bammer media calls him a 95% lock to the Turds before he even arrives on campus(hmmm#2).Lets see, Au has instant playing time avail., better track record of sending OL to NFL and a ongoing 10 commitment from SC. What gives?

Either SC is playing bammer or $$$$$$$$$$ are in play. What are the thoughts of the non-delusional non bammers on this subject?

You nailed it. AU is paying Coleman money and he is uncomfortable taking it so he decides to look around. Thanks for clearing up the Coleman recruitment.

Your presumption is Ark, Ole Miss and Bama are offering cash but AU is not. Are you totally moronic?

Could it be that he wants to prepare for the NFL in a pro style offensive scheme?

Or...could it be that he wants to play for a BCS Championship?

Or...could it be that he would rather play for Saban than Chizik?

Nah...couldn't be any of those reasons.

Or could it be he just doesn't like Auburn and didn't have a commitable offer from Bama until Stone started waiver?

Or is the Bama staff sending Stone a message?

No, No, and No. This is not about an offensive scheme or your midget coach or you new trophy.

If this came down to AU and uat from the get go I would have said ok. If he had not had an offer from bammer until a few weeks ago and he decided to visit on a weekend after being on the campus for at least one football game this fall, I would have said ok.

This is out of the blue with a lot of bammer insiders running their mouths before he even considered taking a visit. His HS coach is a known bammer (does anyone think this smells like Gadsden City HS?)

BTW his mother said it is still Auburn as of yesterday for what it is worth.

It is funny to see how the Alabama (state not Univ.)media shows its true colors on this one.

It is like they are about to win one over on the enemy.

My FL buddy said several years ago, if Auburn was a pro team they would have moved out of that red-neck state a long time ago.

An Aub calling us, or the state, redneck is hilarious. Keep 'em coming.

CGC is 5-9, CNS is 5-6. I have seen the picture you are refering to and I don't know if Gene was in a hole or if $atan was wearing stacks but Gene has 3 inches on your Lollipop Guilder.

Sort of funny that she would say it is still Aub, while she is with her son on visits to Bama and Miami. He aint going to Auburn; it will be either Bama (likely) or Ole Miss.

I think he got caught up in the hype and realized their may be other options....What you have is your perspective and the AU perspective...

If I tell you what I heard from an Arky persective, you would never believe me...

But does Mom loves that AU helmet...we will see

Just wait till NSD

Unless you've got verifiable docs on this, I prefer to believe the photo.

But, 'your standing in a hole' theory is very...Aubesque.

How does it feel to be the joke of the Auburn fanbase on this board.

BTW... there are ninjas on your front lawn waiting to kill you. Don't go out there.

SC's mom sent text last night that Sc was not swayed by bammer and they were in Miami as she was texting.
She said AU #1. I Know the source is a good one who works with SC's close realative in OB MS.

Where does he end up? Miami, the last stop on the tour.

I've been to Hogville, and their take on Shon varies with the person, some believe they have an outside shot, which I guess they do, and others believe he's an Arkansas lock, and that's the portion of Hogville that earns that site any bad rep it has.



Personally, I really am not sweating this for whatever reason. The kid's going to ink with Auburn. IMO, he's enjoying the recruiting process he never really had when not many schools were offering him.

The joke of the Auburn fan base? You must be standing in front of a urinal holding your nick saban. That is the joke of the Auburn fan base.

lol at the "bammers are paying $$$$ to get recruits" comment.

Look at the over all picture of the 2 programs (UA/AU) and tell me how AU can sign kids without cheating...esp out of state kids who are highly ranked. Are they getting the KI package? Or is it the S.Davis package?

You mean the guy that stomped your arse two years ago and beat you this year? That guy?

The guy that led Alabama to the National Championship through the defending champ and #1 and #2 teams in the nation?

That guy?

Idiot.
