Prosch is cleared to play. It was expected, but that's great news for the offense.

Just for arguments sake, say Prosch goes to the NFL after this year, who plays FB for us next year, if we don't end up taking a FB?

This. Look, I think Prosch is going to be a stud in this offense, but regardless of the skill level, fullbacks don't leave school early. You ever seen a fullback drafted in the first round?

Prosch will be here for the full two years, and that's a great thing.

Rephrase. Who's our backup fb? Lutz this year, but next year?

Hence the "just for arguments sake". I know FBs don't leave for the draft early, but yeah, I guess who would be our backup FB next year? One of the TE's?

So I've seen where Kenny Bigelow recently tweeted that if he wasn't committed right now that AU would be at the top of his list of top-5 schools.

Don't feel like logging on to Twitter and stalking the guy just to copy and past a tweet on here, but it's been copied on other boards.

That's neat, but it's kind of weird at the same time. Why be committed then? Not that I think he's not going to USC right now, but I think some of the L.A. glamour is starting to wear off a little bit and the idea of playing closer to home with a lot of his friends is getting his attention.

It's interesting nonetheless...

Oh, and I have a love/hate relationship with recruiting.

It's not a very surprising or at all perplexing statement. He might as well be saying "If I weren't going to USC, Auburn would be at the top because that's where two of my best friends will be playing."

Angelo Blackson and Jahmere Irvin-Sills, plus the chance of Khaliel Rodgers in the near future (I saw where he pushed back his decision date, but still no mention of USC as a possible choice)...

you guys don't have one, or at least you didn't in the spring. From what I saw you played mostly two TE sets or moved a TE around.

Someone on EE mentioned that Adams was basically locked up and Bigelow had been asking if we have room. Jonesy,, you know anything about that?

Could quite possibly be the best DL class ever.

Why aren't we offering him a commitable scholly? I haven't even heard of any other interior guys we're going after.

I think he meant USC, not AU.
