I heard a rumor that he may do something similar tomorrow, but not with the Tennessee hat.

Heard the same. That AU hat is going to end up in Phoenix

Here's what sucks, OP has always liked Tennessee, we led for him early on, he's visited Knoxville a hundred times, and if we were playing on a similar level to Auburn or Georgia, I honestly believe he'd be a VOL.
But we're not, Lyle getting a 5th year absolutely decimated this team, we're a 6-6 team at best this year and that's if Pruitt is a great coach and we don't have too many injuries.
OP wants to win now, and unfortunately we're a minimum of 3 years away from East title contention.

There you are again, following me around, hanging on my every word. This stalker shite is getting old.

I honestly will not be surprised if this played out. We were on the way outside looking in 2 months ago so either (1) our staff (T-Will) completely smashed this one out of the universe, or (2) this has been a hype job to make a spectacle in what would otherwise just be a ho-hum commitment (I’ve always assumed it was UGA until this past week).

Yeah, the Auburn insiders will look very foolish if this one goes wrong (or right in my point of view

Isn't Rusty saying UGA as well?

Rusty thinks Pappoe eventually ends up at UGA but seems to think AU will be the pick tomorrow

I thought Rusty changed his pick? I don't actually read those boards, I get this all second hand, but I heard he had changed it to Auburn.
This is a weird-arse recruitment.

He said he's not gonna change his Crystal Ball because he thinks tomorrow will not be the end of Pappoe's recruitment and that he will eventually sign with UGA. But admitted that he's hearing way more AU chatter right now. Pointed to Brenton Cox & Adam Anderson as examples of how he thinks this recruitment turns out

That's pretty reasonable. It's also hedging your bet
Basically, no matter what happens, Rusty'll be able to claim he's right.

I find it very irritating but it makes a lot of sense which makes it even more irritating

It does seem that he was saying Otis Reese was headed elsewhere, though, but I might be wrong on that one.


Hope everyone is doing well. Miss the board and the ones that bring good info. Exciting to be talking about a commitment on May 1st, but it's also foolish in a way. Same way chatter was foolish that Auburn had paid OP

Auburn has done a great job here. Two things help them- Position coach and depth chart. Mostly the coach. He picks Auburn tomorrow.

Gotta maintain that "insider" status with the plebes at all cost, huh?

Wat? No AU insider is claiming it’s a done deal at all. We are mainly going on what Rusty is saying as much as you guys. AU insiders are just saying AU has done a hell of a job to to catch UGA here or perhaps pull ahead, but no one will be ‘shocked’ if he does pick UGA. You guys have been the betting favorite for a while and you all still seem to think he signs there despite what he chooses tomorrow.
