He seems to be the most interested in AU as well, isn't he Jonesy?

It's either Auburn or Michigan now, from what I've read. I don't know who's #1.

I figure he won't commit on/after his visit because he's going to Michigan the following weekend. It would be sorta odd for him to commit then travel to Michigan for a visit.
I think he's our #1 right now.

I thought Coach Paw had turned the corner a couple of years ago, but now I don't know if we'll be able to field a strong team every year. Maybe making a run every five years is the ceiling for our baseball program.

I would settle for that, honestly... there's no reason we can't be a consistent tournament team, however, and be a 'every 5 years or so' make a run at the SEC title and an occasional CWS...
I just wish we were a more fundamentally sound, well coached team.... i can live with being under-talented, so to speak.... but to be so bad at the basics and have a team that generally chokes in clutch situations, reflects poorly on the coaching.
Ima wait until this time next year.... if the highly touted class fails to make it on campus, and we have another mediocre season, i'll be ready to see some shake up.

Per BM Khaliel Rodgers & Irvin-Sills are visiting this weekend. Said if AU offered David Sills it'd pick up interest from Bigelow.
VanGorder evaluated Irvin-Sills as his #1 Corner,
Said he wouldn't be surprised if Wilkins commits today.

That doesn't deserve a wow whatsoever. It shouldn't be a surprise that CFB/NFL coaches are better talent evaluators than these 'scouts' on recruiting websites.

Just a question for the insiders over here. Have guys heard any concern about the school those guys go to. I read on another site from a 247 writer that alot of concerns with those players from MD.
Again just curious because they seem to have alot of have talent over the next few years that alot of DI schools will be looking at.

Those concerns would be from Bama fans who are mad after Eddie Goldman spurned them last year.
Posted on 6/4/12 at 9:33 am to TideWarrior
What type of concerns. You are going to have to elaborate?
Posted on 6/4/12 at 9:38 am to GoCrazyAuburn
Actually Goldman did not go to this school.
Most of the players originally attended Red Lion but the state got involved in a major investigation for illegal recruiting and the school redirected its focus to the academics and away from the football. Money was being given by 2 christian organizations for scholarships for the football players, both organizations have been disassociated with by the school. Because of the investigation D Sills father who was incharge of both organizations helped to start the new school Eastern Christian Academy in MD just across the state line. 30 players came with them.
The concern besides all that stuff is the school is completely online. A Virtual classroom. The writer said they meet in a storage space for their classes. A Hill for us took one online course and was ruled ineligible.
I am not saying AU or anyone involved with the recruiting of these kids has done any wrong just seems some shady stuff involved with these kids like getting them qualified. So curious if anyone here knew of any concerns.

No concern at all. Anyone concerned is just an SEC conspiracy theorist. Coach Sills is, by all accounts, an absolutely wonderful man and adopted Sills after his mother passed away 2 and a half years ago. This whole "travel team" thing has nothing to do with paying players and everything to do with preparing them for college.
EDIT: Now that I read your post, I guess there could be some concern regarding eligibility, but I'd assume that those players have already spoken to the NCAA and asked about the Clearinghouse before they made this move.
