The word that I hear is that, due to academics, it won't really matter one way or the other.
If that is true, I would assume that Buck Allen or Buie might sign with AU.

Doesnt seem like anyone really wants Buck Allen anymore. I guess he never really recovered from that injury. I sure hope he does in the future i feel sorry for the kid.

Don't forget your 6* explosive new Q-back recruit, Pee-Wee Herman. The promised land awaits.

Even though i won't believe anything with him until his LOI is in,UF is very confident that Roberson is locked up to them.Honestly could go either way but they are unusually confident on him right now.Another I won't believe until his LOI is in is Wright.I believe he's AU bound but the Tennessee rumors will not go away.There is something to it just not sure what.Popular belief is the he's playing one of you,bad.
Florence,Sigler,Abdullah are locks as long as you guys take the last 2.Mason is a risk grade wise but I'd assume he'd choose Auburn over OM.Honestly you guys need to get all 7 of these guys or that reported big finish you guys were getting is a bit of a disappointment.Wright and Roberson are the keys.If you guys miss on those guys there is going to be some explaining to do by someone.Without those 2 the finish is very meh.1 of the 2 would be good but not the exciting finish most were expecting 2 weeks ago.

Finishing with a big pop would be nice for coverage and buzz...but this will help during the offseason too.

I think we will finish pretty good and have a good overall class, but not as good as many were thinking a week or two ago.

Why do you guys think you are getting Marcus Roberson? He is a commit to Texas Tech and in the big 12 rivals recruiting chat today the gurus seemed to think florida was the one who had a realistic shot at stealing him.

I think getting Calloway, Frost and Westerman, all not favored to go to AU when they committed this month, would still qualify as a big finish even if we miss on Roberson (very possible) and Wright (pretty sure we get him).

He's basically all but said he's not commited to TT. He's coming this weekend for an unofficial. Our coaches will press him hard. If we don't get him, we don't get him, but most people that have any kind of inside info think there's a good possibility he ends up at Auburn.

Of course the Big 12 guys think he ends up at TT. It's good for business for them to think that.

It took less than 24 hours for him to say he is still open.

1. Erique Florence
2. Gabe Wright
3. Brandon Fulse
4. Devante Sigler
5. Tre Mason
6. Ameer Abdullah
7. Marcus Roberson

I think that list looks pretty close to being accurate. All I know about Mason's grades is what is listed on Rivals, and it isn't pretty. He's not going to qualify, is he?...i'm not sure what AU will do with that spot. I'm not sure which direction they would go if they lost out on Roberson either. Frankly, I think AU coaches fumbled on the RB situation. They should have targetted Lane or Buie harder, imo.

Wright, Florence, Mason will be my final 3 must gets, and I think we get them. Sigler will commit. Fulse will commit Thursday.

I don't know if it can get much better than

Wright - 4 star
Florence - 4 star
Mason - 4 star
Fulse - 4 star
Sigler - 3 star

That makes 24. I'd be fine with that. Perfectly fine with a top 5 class.
