Ol' Jon Soloman forgot to add that two of uat's players (WR Melvin Ray & RB Corey Grant) are now on Auburn's roster.

He didn't forget.

They don't count since they weren't wanted anyway.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Ray spent 3 years away from football. Good luck with that. And I'm not so sure that Grant is going to fare much better at AU than he would have at UA.

I have to disagree on Grant.

Ditto. He can't go any lower than scout team (UA), aside from quitting.

Just learned yesterday that he also included the likes of Cam, Fairley, Brandon Mosley, and I think one or two other CC/JC/Prep Schoolers that contributed heavily as those "no longer on the roster" to get his percentages, but fails to mention that so that he can use "no longer on the roster" in a totally negative light.

Also, the NCAA has a built in 15% attrition rate in it's 25 per year/85 man roster rule anyway.

I updated the percentages, taking out the JUCO players.

So, to answer Solomon's fucking stupid article....Nothing "happened", most of the two signing classes are still on campus.

At any rate, it's simply a hit piece, another in a long line, that gerrymanders numbers to create a bad light for Auburn.  I guess it couldn't have included Cam if it was calling 2008 Gene's first class, but either way, it's stupid.
