Are you seriously trying to purport that any of those guys were better recruiters than DCraig, Mushchamp, T-Rob, Lance Thompson, and maybe even Grimes?

You've lost your damn mind.
Are you seriously blind? In case you are, Auburn landed the #1 DL class in this recruiting cycle, without Coach Muschamp, T-Rob or Coach Thompson...thanks to Coach Gardner.

#PickedTheMicBackUp

Coach Steele is a pretty good recruiter too (he knows how to move money around, just like Coach Thompson does...hint, they worked under Sabbin).

I would put Coach Craig above all the coaches on the staff, recruiting wise (not to impressed with his WR group though, I still feel he would make a better QB Coach)

Coach Gardner & Craig (those two are top tier recruiters, Craig a little more so).

I would match Coach Muschamp with Coach McGriff (McGriff was Ole Miss' & later Vanderbilt's bagman)

I would match Coach T-Rob with Coach T-Will (T-Will is a fucking rapper, that will resonate with HS prospects)

I would match Coach Thompson with Coach Steele

I would put Coach Hand above Coach Grimes (Coach Malzahn wanted Herbie in '13, settled on Grimes. I like Grimes a lot, more so than most of the staff, but from what I've read and heard, Coach Hand is a really good recruiter as well as being a really good OL Coach).

So, no...we didn't lose ALL of our recruiters. Only a blind man would think that.

Look damn it, you're going to have to start bringing your own microphone.  That's the 3rd one I've replaced this week.

You mention this coach Gardner over and over as if you have inside skreetz on the University of Auburn.

I would know if we hired a new guy.

Sorry about that, it's just like fishing with dynamite sometimes around here...it's so much fun dropping the knowledge bomb on people's heads.

The fact still remains, Auburn did not lose ALL of their recruiters. I agree that Auburn lost their top recruiter (Coach Craig), but not all of them.

Which is that?  The franks or the beans?  How'd you get the beans above the frank?

Rumor/Fact Mill:  Two LSU wide receivers transferred out today. One was a former starter.  Don't know what, if any relation it has to Craig's arrival.  No real reasons given.  Something at least worth keeping an eye on.

I forgot to mention Coach Horton, our Recruiting Coordinator, he's a really good recruiter too. Also, Coach McGriff & Coach Hand have been recruiting coordinators in some of their previous stops (McGriff with Baylor, Ole Miss & Vanderbilt & Hand with West Virginia '01-'06)...McGriff & Hand apparently have hot wives because they were both on Vanderbilt's staff under HC James Franklin ("I only hire coaches with hot wives because it tells me, they know how to recruit.")

Rumor is that Horton will leave soon as well.

Probably nothing more sinister than the "grass is greener" mentality that seems rampant in CFB these days.  New coach = opportunity to get out from under Cameron.

I can't imagine that Craig's image is so toxic that established players would bolt when he's announced as their new position coach.

Yup, I'd heard UCF but I don't know if that's still open anymore. I wonder what Tre Smith is doing these days, think he'll be interested in being the RB Coach?

I read where one had started 7 games and then had one shitty game against Bama. Lost his #1 slot and has never regained it. Your grass is greener scenario is probably more spot on.  Just thought the timing was worth a mention.
