Most of our better receivers are lower tier recruits


Seth Williams: 4*, top 250 recruit

Ryan Davis: 4* top 250 recruit

Eli Stove: 4* top 250 recruit

Darius Slayton: 4* top 250 recruit

Anthony Schwartz: 4* top 250 recruit

Didn’t work out:

NCM: 4* top 250 recruit

Kyle Davis: 4* top 250 recruit

Granted, Davis and NCM were top 100 guys, and the others were in the 100-175 range but most of our receivers that are working out are blue chip kids coming to Auburn with long offer sheets.

As much as you guys talk about the standard at Auburn being so high, you sure are crabby when highly recruited players leave. You guys want Auburn to be on the same level as Alabama. They bleed blue chip recruits that don’t pan out. You just can’t have it both ways

Not really what I meant at all, but ok.

Just talking about historically Auburn.. the most hyped 5 receivers I remember over the past 10-15 years are:

Deangelo Benton
Kyle Davis
Nate Craig-Myers
Duke Williams (was solid but not as good as the hype and obviously didn’t work out)
Trovon Reed

Meanwhile our best receivers over that time period ended up being the lightly recruited Sammie Coates and Darvin Adams.

Wasn’t really implying anything by it, just kinda odd.

I do think WR is as difficult as any position to evaluate.
