Auburn absolutely wanted him. If I remember correctly he was committed to Auburn for like a year, close to several players on Auburns team, and actually visited auburn the night before he flipped to UGA. After the flip several auburn players took to social media basically saying Uga was paying big$$$ for his services.

Glad it worked out that way because he’s been nothing but trouble since he’s been in college.

Probably cause he had 1 rec for 4 yds the previous year.


He is a "thug of the highest order" because he squirted water an an opposing QB in a game.

The horror. I mean, that seems to be the consensus. I mean, I get it. People like to troll, but man, they should at least troll about something they know about.

Alabama has no injuries, amiright? Wait....who was that center that played only one play at the end of last years National Championship game? Why didn't he play?

And why didn't Jalen Waddle play more in the National Championship game? And why did Devonte Smith come out of the National Championship game last year?

Would you like for me to give more examples? Because I can.

Again, I'm not saying the guy is a thug, I don't even know the fella.

But what I will say that if an opposing player squirted their water bottle on Jake Fromm on their sideline, I'd be saying that was a low-class move.

And so I have to apply the same standard to my own team. It was a low-class move.

Pretty damn good considering it was game 1, the injuries, and quality of the opponent.

90% of Picken’s reputation is due to rumors that were proven false.

Florida Twitter fan account started a rumor he was kicked out of UGA last year

Auburn Twitter fan account posted a video of Pickens bodyslamming a dude saying it was a special needs kid. Turns out the guy who was bodyslammed got on Twitter and said A. He isn’t special needs, and B. He’s friends with Pickens on the football team,

They’re all proven false, but not before they are retweeted hundreds of times and reach the message boards

I was just acknowledging it was injury related and not disciplinarian.

Did you not ask why people called him a "thug of the highest order"?

I was explaining to you the reasons that were given in this thread by Alabama, Auburn and Tennessee fans.

Low class. Immature. You do realize the point that was made and we are arguing about is that he was called a "thug of the highest order", right?

Again. The point we are arguing is that he is a "thug of the highest order". Stop trying to make it about something else.

No you weren't.
Or would you like to revisit the troll job you were doing over on the recruiting board?

On the field he squirted water on another player and got into a fight with a GT player after the tech player took a cheap shot on him.

"Thug of the highest order"?


Didn't an Alabama player go after his own coach on National television in a National Championship game?

And didn't two Alabama players get in a shoving match with each other on the field in a National Championship game?

"Thugs of the highest order" I am guessing?

Define the “nothing but trouble”. Or is it just Aubie butt hurt?
