Not knowing much about his recruitment, that makes me think Auburn is the favorite to land him.

You never know, though. You just never know.

It definitely sounds like he's Auburn's to lose.

1) Marlon Humphrey: Always been an Alabama lean, IMO. Legacy player. Alabama/FSU battle. Give Alabama the advantage because it just seems like a fit. Florida State will continue to battle and tell him what he wants to hear, and as bad as I want him to go to Florida State, Marlon Humphrey chooses Alabama.


lol Bama and FSU wish they had the swag we got

He's just leading y'all on

I have always believed Evans would end up at AU. I also never believed T Williams ever really considered UA.

In regards to Roberts I am glad he made his decision and moved on and if Bessent does as well I have no issue with it. Both are solid pickups in my opinion but neither elite. The only reason either would UA in the end is if miss out on signing any replacements for them. It just seems this a lot of DBs on their level and few above them that UA has a legit shot at landing.

That Marshon Lattimore kid from Ohio was said to have had a good visit with us.

I retract my confidence on SDH, something going on this weekend.

Officials when he says he won't, then tells Keith Niebuhr is wasn't when it was.

Yea, not so sure what's going on...

If you hear anything, could you bring it here? I'll do the same.

Niebuhr put in his CB pick to AU. If he flips, it will be soon. When do the early enrolees sign?

Now it's coming out he's done and 100% to Bama on both sites.

Still a weird situation regarding that visit.

SDH was definitely on OV and just telling reporters he wasn't. Supposedly he was undecided and our staff made the decision for him like we supposedly did with Casher

SDH said Auburn pushed for a commitment, he told them he was going to Bama. So they gave up and went on other prospects.

Seems like them quitting is being misconstrued as them not wanting him. He gets a kick out of that...

We were told by Auburn insiders that Shaun Dion Hamilton told our coaching staff that he was going to flip, met with the coaches following the Iron Bowl, couldn't make his mind up, and the coaches told him they were moving on and decided to stop recruiting him.

Obviously, Auburn and Alabama fans are hearing different things, so I doubt we ever know what truly happened... Either way, it doesn't really affect me that much.

However, IMO (which isn't worth much), it seems like the story Auburn insiders are telling sounds accurate, at least to some degree. Kieth Niebuhr changed his pick twice within a short period of time...

Auburn must have said "NO", because we all know that if Auburn wants a players then they get him.

Auburn said no to Josh Casher earlier this year. It was well noted.

I wonder if that will be the same story line if McMillan comes to Bama. "He tried to commit, but we told him no." Seems to be the new excuse on auburn rivals. How can you clearly want a kid, throw tons of resources at him, and then when he tries to commit tell him "no thanks." I don't understand.

I understand it is bad for perception to admit that the kid just wanted to go to Bama. Kind of like Bama taking a hit in perception with y'all flipping one, and possibly two of our commits.

You don't understand the Casher situation? Maybe you need to read up on it.

The SDH situation wasn't the same.
