I'm sorry to start a new thread, but I thought it was deserving given what I know.
I live roughly 20 minutes outside of Auburn and do some volunteering in and around Auburn High. I had an opportunity to speak with a couple of their coaches (one being a defensive assistant). They tell me that Evans really does like Auburn, but it's an Elam type situation where he doesn't want to leave due to the comfortability that comes with being close to home.
That said, they went as far as saying it's 55/45 BAMA as of Sunday night. It's not that Evans wants to leave, but he thinks that he could build his draft stock more by coming in at Alabama and being surrounded with other top flight talent. He likes the direction Auburn is headed, but he doesn't trust that they can help him reach his ceiling.
TIFWIW. They said it could change, but they seem confident that it's not over and that Alabama actually leads. I don't claim to be an insider, but I saw this as my unique opportunity to pass along what I'm hearing down here with 24 hours to go.

auburn's about to have one, possibly two players taken in the 1st round of the 2014 NFL draft... and another taken in the 2nd or 3rd rounds. and that's with a staff having 10 months to coach these guys.
if he doesn't think auburn can get him drafted, he's dead wrong... but it's his decision... we'll see soon enough.
