re: Cubelic: Auburn will finalize Mike Bobo and Will Friend hires soon

Nix has the talent to do both. Just hasn’t had much coaching.

Compared to who. 6-4 with a dysfunctional coaching staff.

Auburn was the worst in conference in recruiting QB and OL and just got 2 top recruiters in QB and OL.

Why is this not a win?

Friend is a good recruiter. But when has Bobo been considered a good recruiter?

Again, I'll defer to UGA and USCe fans, but just did a quick search and found this fluff piece.

Bobo has strong track record with 5-star recruits

quote:

---

-Bobo helped sign 10 5-stars while at Georgia.

---

quote:

---

-He was primary recruiter on eight of the 10. -His 5-stars included two quarterbacks, one being future All-American and longtime NFL signal caller Matthew Stafford. -Three of the 5-stars were running backs — two are NFL standouts today. -Two of the 5-stars were receivers.

---

quote:

---

-Two of them were defensive linemen and another was an outside backer. -He has signed two top-10 national recruits, one who ranked No. 1 overall. -Bobo signed a total of six 5-stars from the state of Georgia. Worth noting, he had another 5-star from Georgia committed to South Carolina (his most recent stop prior to landing at Auburn) — quarterback Gunner Stockton.

“I think the major value with Mike Bobo is the ability to recruit south Georgia,” said Rusty Mansell of Dawgs247. “Been doing this for 12 years now and there are probably two people that are consensus favorites of south Georgia coaches and that’s Kirby Smart and Mike Bobo. So Mike Bobo is going to be able to walk into any high school there and give Auburn as much of a chance as they’ve ever had with kids. Both coaches that are coaches’ sons that were south Georgia coaches for a long time. They both played in south Georgia. So Mike is going to certainly recruit South Georgia for Auburn.”

all reports out of AU is he has physically increased every part of his game. This was his first full year out of HS and into a college S&C Program. Also, Morris has helped with an Offense that is more suited to his game.

Lol, would love to know whan that was posted since just yesterday Irons Puppet said Auburn's S&C program had sucked for the last 7 years.

And who can forget his "insider" HC short-list:

Jamey Chadwell, Coastal Carolina HC-
Steve Sarkisian, Alabama OC-
Bill Clarke, UAB HC-
Matt Campbell ISU HC
Hugh Freeze Liberty HC
Dan Quinn-Former ATL Falcons Head Coach
Scott Satterfield- Louisville Head Coach

Would you have traded Jacob Eason/Greyson Lambert/Brice Ramsey for Jeremy Johnson/Sean White/John Franklin III?

Of course you wouldn't.

What’s the difference? All of those qbs sucked in those years. Eason needed time to develop, but thanks to bobo, he was forced into action.

Bobo last year vs A&M = 3 points.

Chad last year vs A&M = 20 points.
