The 6-foot-6, 220-pound Green-Beckham and eight family members including his adopted parents were in Auburn last weekend for their first visit to the Plains. The large group arrived on campus Saturday night and stayed until Monday afternoon.

During their time in Auburn, Green-Beckham and his adopted parents met extensively with Taylor, the Tigers’ assistant head coach/receivers coach and lead recruiter for Green-Beckham, offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn and head coach Gene Chizik. They also met with Athletics Director Jay Jacobs. At one point during the visit, Green-Beckham’s parents sat down with Jacobs and the entire coaching staff to talk about Auburn and ask any questions they had about the program/university.

The parents were impressed. So was Green-Beckham. One of the first things he did when he arrived home from his visit was call Auburn to tell them. And the top receiver has already indicated he would like to return. The next time would be an official visit in the fall.

Oklahoma will be tough to beat. Missouri is high on his list as well. But after last weekend, Auburn isn’t too far behind either of the two. Should Green-Beckham return for an official visit, the Tigers could become serious contenders, if they aren’t already.


What I bolded is a little far, but it'd help a lot to try to get him back on campus. In the end, I highly doubt he picks Auburn. J. Lee still has DGB at 25% on his Hot Board, as of now. He may be basing the bolded print off of what DGB told him on the visit. Enjoy....

Doubt we get him. It's ok, I'd rather our coaches focus on Stefon Diggs more, who we have a really good shot at

Let me guess, this article was written by an AU recruiting analyst?

You heard wrong. I stated in the OP that he has him at 25%.

He came on his own, then has agreed to come for an official in the fall. That's why I said the OP needs to pump the brakes.

When he picks somebody else on NSD you can still use the "we didn't offer" line that so many Auburn fans like to use.

Yea. I mean what else do you expect a reporter to say? DGB came to OU/Ark/AU this weekend and said it was horrible. He really hated the school and everything about. He said the locker rooms didn't deserve to hold his belongings.

I know what you mean, I hate when people post things like this, everyone knows what they're gonna say about the visit.

the only time I've ever seen something bad about a visit was LaDarrell McNeil and Alabama. He said, and I quote.

"I arrived, and after 30 minutes I left because it sucked"
