Auburn just doesn't have the talent to compete. That's the bottom line. Sure, we have some talent on the first string, but once we get 2 deep or lower, we have walk-on talent. Bammer and LSU (especially bammer) have 4 and 5 stars on the scout team.

I guess the whole Cam situation scared us and made our bagman go into hiding, but he needs to come back. Bammer cheats out in the open; they do it flagrantly and no one cares or does anything about it. All of their players are driving tricked out cars, have new suits, plenty of jewelry, their mommas get new houses (Rent Richardson), their uncles and aunts get new jobs. As TJ Yeldon said after he flipped away from AU to bammer "They are taking care of my family." This implies AU wasn't willing to offer enough. We need to get back in the game and start ponying up to "take care" of these recruits and their families.

Until we make the commitment to go "all-in" in the recruiting game (and it is a nasty game), we're going to be 7-6ish no matter if we had Bill Belichick coaching.
