To clarify, there are a number of scouting services that draft eligible players can submit paperwork and request grades from so there isn't any particular reason a player would post them or a place where the scouts would post them. Scott received a late round grade.

I've never heard anything like that about the guy, so any OM fans care to shed some light on if that's the case or not?

Losing a year of eligibility was the only answer.
I guess you could make the players sit a season without losing the year. Would still be a punishment.

yeah I'm sure you wouldn't take offense to this but......I'm not taking anything that happened against LSU's defense as a marker for someone's potential.

Not just referring to the LSU game. They were pretty solid the weeks after that for the most part until Georgia. The week of the Georgia game, our RT suffered a season ending foot injury. We moved our starting LT to RT and promoted the back-up LT to first string (he started at LT for most of 2022 as a true freshman so more than serviceable). Then that guy gets hurt on the first drive against UGA so it's a complete shuffle the next 3 weeks. We still moved the ball a couple of drives until UGA realized they didn't have to bring any extra pressure and could sit back in coverage.

I find that hard to believe considering OMs season. Usually when you have cancers they either get benched or your teams struggles due to internal conflict.

So I heard from a source that is friends with a surgeon that's an Auburn donor...that he's transferring to Auburn for 1.5mil.
It's all word of mouth rumor so take that for what it's worth.
Running backs have to get their money while they can.
He's from Pike Road and it's about 50 miles Southwest of Auburn in Montgomery County. So him going to Auburn with a great payday would make sense.

We had agreed with them in financial terms as of last month. Unclear if the family came back (again) with more but yes there were issues in the locker room, to the point that Jaxson Dart went to Kiffin about benching Judkins during the Peach Bowl.

We could pay him what he wants but he had already agreed to a $150,000 raise after the egg bowl. Even though he had less production than his freshman year. Then after we signed these portal guys he came back wanting more, we said no and he walked.

This has been the rumor since the tulane game. He hasn’t looked like himself all season either.

Not 100% accurate. We had worked out financial terms the Friday before Christmas.

He would throw his hands up, yell at his linemen or at the sideline. Then in the Peach Bowl you can see multiple of his teammates walk by him on the ground not helping him get up when he’s reaching out.

Auburn is not paying $1.5M for a running back with the room we currently have.
He’s not a need at all. He’d be a luxury piece and Auburn is going to direct that money to pieces more needed.
Auburn is automatically the assumed landing spot because Judkins wanted to come to Auburn badly, and Harsin would not (stupidly) give him the time of day even though Caddy begged him to let him offer.
If I’m Judkins unless I just have some love for Auburn in my heart it’s the last place I’d look, because he’d more than likely take a pay cut in that room. There is no way he’d be guaranteed to be the star RB with those guys coming back.

This is college football's version of the one and done in bball. Fun to watch, but not good for the sport.
When bonified starters on the team just up and enter the portal the whole sport suffers.
Sucks arse.

This is why the Auburn speculation surprised me. I was guessing Texas or Michigan since they have holes at RB and otherwise solid teams.

Colorado is the name I hear the most. I also suspect LSU will get mentioned as they've already been in contact with him.

Judkins has an On3 NIL Valuation of $535k. I suspect he is asking for 2-3x his value. Even in this climate, hard to see a RB commend a $1M deal. Decisions for all involved.
what a fricking train wreck college football has become.
Jesus.
