We're also heavily in the mix for several others. Isaiah Wilson to Michigan isn't a foregone conclusion. Also, Trey Smith.

same BS every time.
Who gives a shite what they say? AU has landed their top 2 OT targets in this cycle. That's all that should matter for AU fans.
Now if you motherfrickers flip him on NSD then we are gonna have some problems

The difference between Bama and Auburn, Troxell is one of their top two OT recruits. He was 4 or 5 for Bama.

Still a good pickup for Auburn though. Congrats.

Leatherwood, sure. Top JUCO guy makes sense since if you have any morals you'll cut the gun toting felon thug you have now at LT. Who are these other worse players that Bama convienently has higher on their board all of a sudden now that Troxell has picked Auburn?

I try to be nice about all this and u just can't help but be a dick

Isaiah Wilson for one. Wyatt Davis is the other. Both are 5-stars on multiple sites. We have the overwhelming lead in CBs for Davis and have 4 CBs for Wilson, including the last 2.
Sorry if that hurts your narrative but they are absolutely higher on our board than Troxell.

The only thing I see is Bama posters congratulating auburn on the pick up and that we Bama fans are happy with who we have currently committed. For a team that just got a big commit, some of you are being down right bitchy.
Congratulating in that backhand fashion you guys always do - "great pick up, wish we'd had room for him". Lulz.

Well it is a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. Either the last 8 years of recruiting means Alabama is deep or recruiting rankings are wrong and they're all overrated. Can't be both ways.

Again Lulz, like you know Saban's board. Troxell was the premier guy in state everyone wanted. I'll take our 6'7 bookend tackles even though Bama didn't want them
Posted on 6/18/16 at 8:07 pm to Rhymenoceros
Or Alabama just flips him for the hell of it on NSD.
Posted on 6/18/16 at 8:31 pm to Rhymenoceros
Isn't he from Madison Academy? Like Malik Miller and Kerryon Johnson?
Auburn is putting in work there.

Yep. That's a big part of it.

I know a hell of a lot more regarding who Alabama is hard after than you do.
Just like I'm sure you know more about Auburn recruiting than I do.
That's not a reason to get butthurt like a little girl over it. Alabama has higher rated offensive linemen than Troxell left on the board. Troxell is also coming off an ACL injury which caused him to put on some bad weight. But I'm sure you knew that already.

Posted on 6/18/16 at 9:01 pm to CapstoneGrad06
Troxell can stay committed to Auburn, Bama doesn't really need him. By NSD Baker and Leatherwood will be 5 stars to go along with Wyatt Davis, a soon to be Bama commit. Bama might fill the other OL spot with another 5 star or sign Randolph. Bama didn't lose anything with Troxell committing elsewhere.


Posted on 6/18/16 at 9:04 pm to remaster916
Now that's bullshite. You always need elite instate linemen. I'd take him in a heartbeat. Let's see how it plays out by NSD.
Posted on 6/18/16 at 9:14 pm to CapstoneGrad06
When the elite out of state players are better then the instate players, you go with the better players. Bama only signs like 5-7 in state players a year anymore. That is what happens when you recruit on a national scale. Bama has been signing players from 10-13 states the last few years.

And I've been out spoken over it. And will continue it.
