I know it's hard for people like you to understand this, but some fans here just like discussing football/recruiting with other enthusiasts because of the common interest. It has nothing to do with team affiliation.


Well lets get with it then.
Do you all have any good Db's coming?

Is there an echo in here? Bamas numbers are tight, and the roster is stacked. It's stupid to say recruit x has a better chance of getting an offer from bama than auburn, I don't care what position he plays. Sorry if that bothers little brother

Again, do you want me to link you to Alabama fans who immediately tell other fanbases to get out of "their thread" because they have a different opinion and root for a different team?


If it bothers you that much, I see 3 possible solutions:

1. You convincing a couple dozen Alabama fans to be more respectful and accepting of the opinions of a rival fanbase
2. Stop posting in the thread
3. Stop and get over it

FWIW one of the above is never going to happen

Who would have thought Ulric Johhnson and Keith Neubrh would be such a destructive tandem

Are you new to recruiting?

Ole 3-star Darren Lake didn't get an instate offer from Auburn and was never recruiting by Auburn. Must mean you guys have a lower talent level than Auburn, right? Tyler Nero was ranked higher, hence Auburn won a recruiting battle over Alabama, right?



You really had to reach for this. And I'm enjoying the hell out of it!

Ah, didn't realize I was talking to the standard TF homer. Intelligent conversation is just too much for you to handle because of the symbol next to the name.

Have at it then, champ. Back to the circle jerk and whining over a national recruiting analyst asking too hard of questions to one of your commitments.



I don't have a problem with you having a different opinion, I have a problem with you bitching. Quit your bitching and whining and you won't have any problems from me

Yes, Saban relies on 247 to scout prospects for him. Lake is a 3-4 NG, so that's a bad example.

Alright, I'll try to explain for you why I THINK it's more likely Ultric Jones would get an offer from Alabama than Auburn...

Reason #1: Defensive line is, by far, Auburn's deepest position. We have 17 players on the defensive line. Of those 17 players, there is 1 senior (Jamar Travis). So, by saying that, unless there are some that leave for the NFL (most likely Corey Lemonier), we will return 16 players on the defensive line to go along with the 4-5 we pick up this season.

Likewise, according to Rivals (which is what I used for Auburn's roster), Alabama has 15 defensive linemen. Jessie Williams, Damion Square, and Quinton Dial will probably go to the NFL (if they're all seniors, and I think they are), therefore Alabama will have 12 returning to pair with whatever number they decide to take in this class.

Reason #2: Auburn has a pair of 5 star defensive ends commited in Dee Liner and Carl Lawson, a stud 4 star defensive end in TaShawn Bower, and lead big for another 5 star defensive tackle in Monty Adams. Bryan Matthews, Justin Hoke, etc... have also stated that we will not offer lower ranked recruits just for the sake of filling a class. We are getting the big boys, or striking out.

Likewise, according to Rivals again, Alabama has 1 defensive lineman commited that I am aware of (correct me if I am wrong). I didn't count Jonathan Allen because he will more than likely play linebacker from what I have gathered in this thread.




Does this make sense?

There's a zero% chance he gets a bama offer unless he just blows up his senior year. Signed 4 last year and still have a few on the board this year. If we miss on the guys at the top of the board Saban isn't going to give the kid a scholly for the sake a getting another defensive lineman signed. He's proven he'll go the juco route if depth were a problem down the road.

The correct response to the ulric jones interview would have been this kid is going to Mississippi state because Alabama and auburn have to many good dlinemen on the team/committed. Not "he'll get a bama offer before he gets one from auburn" ¿Comprendè?

Us Auburn fans feel the exact same way...

And even if he blew up his senior year, we would take Monty Adams and be done with this class.

Same exact thing for Auburn. We just don't have room.

AMMAU's words, not mine. I just agree with him. I've also let it be known I don't think he gets an offer from either. But one is always more likely than the other, even if it's by the slightest of margins.

Cool viewing tonight, a bar OTP ATL(Bama owner) aired the "Blackout" tonight. Really cool, it was on a big screen on a patio(also airs a ton of UF games).

I'm pretty buzzed right now, but a few observations that I forgot about(on my phone forgive my typos). I was in Athens for the game, but it was a crazy time for me.

Ingram: the start of something special. He didnt really learn his cuts till later in the season.

Donta Hightower: Same as Ingram. He just oozed the potential.


Travis McCall: Badass. Commander. Took pride in pushing mofos around. Something that goes underappreciated.

C Up: Layed wood on KO's

ROLO: Was Bein ROLO

JPW: Played with great confidence. Didnt take shite.

Caldwell: Dominated, miss him.

Michael Johnson: Leader on Oline.



AJ Green: After his fumble/INT he went over to the sideline and started slamming his helmet, and pushed Momass. Pretty sure Saban would have waterboarded him for that.

UGA Defense: Quitters. They got punched in the mouth and quit. Our TE's, and Oline made them quit. It was pathetic.


UGA offense: Scared/timid. Our Dline and ROLO werent taking any shite that day, no matter the crowd.



RTR fellas. Would like to get some of these games on DVD
