See, this is how I feel as well. If it comes down to it, I would much rather have a combination of Scarborough, Fournette, and Rock Thomas than a combo of Tenpenny, Jones, and Henry/Kamara.

If we have to miss out on Henry/Kamara to get the three aformentioned 2014 backs, then so be it.

Like I said kid all but committed today to Coach Burns (very underrated recruiter) and was WAY more open to a position change than once originally thought when talking today, staff doesn't feel good about a kid already committed (not R.Foster) and he would take his spot should he flip

I agree. The fact that we're even talking about that much talent at one position over 2 classes is just ridiculous. I watched Kenyan Drake's film again today and kept wondering what are we going to do with this guy. He's incredibly talented, hasn't even stepped foot on campus yet and we've already recruited over him.

I think I like Mackenro as a safety better than Vonn Bell.


He may show up at camp and earn an offer. I will go with whatever Saban decides. 8)

Throw him in the ring with all the rest of the slot wr combatees and see who comes out. I dont know if he is a good north south runner to ever play RB for us.

Holy crap. We are practically neighbors. I live in the new house on Wolfe across from the Old Wolfe fork. You live less than 1 mile from me.

I don't think they will ever fire St Mark. UGA fans worship him. I don't get it.



Living amongst UGA fans, being half raised as one, and being part of a family full of them gives me a bit of insight there. They don't worship him at all really. Most of them, if they are being honest, are ready to part ways. However, they are uncomfortable with admitting it because they don't want to look like they only care about winning.

Meh. We throw the ball more to our TEs than Auburn next season and Howard sticks with us.

With the current backlog we have at RB and thinking about 3 more in 2013/3 more in 2014 it sounds like they are expecting LAcy to blow-up and go to the NFL next year or his foot issue is bigger than previously thought. Either case would mean TJ is a 3 and out. Could also be creating a difficult situation for Hart's long term experience in T-town.

Gotta think Lutzafrick will be a big part of their offense since if Auburn wants to win they wont have Kiehl throwing too far down the field. Plus they need some weapons without a strong RB to take pressure off him.

Truthfully, if we get McNeil in this class and little Latua in the 2014 class we will be fine at TE for a while, regardless of what Howard does.

Having said that, Howard's father has been a poster on BOL since the day OJ committed, so I would tread lightly on being negative about his son.

Crazy man. Stay out of the broken spoke. Those old fricks probably pass around the black plague as a STD
