The expectation was four to five signees.

Fail. Pickens picks UGA after giving no indication of truly wavering
Fail. Hampton picks LSU (no surprise but Gus let people think there was a chance)
Fail. Cox chooses Ole Miss out of the blue
Fail. Griffin signs with Ga. Tech

Terrible closing. Just terrible. We are getting the R Kelley treatment today.

The Octavious Brothers killed us.

Nice DE pickup in Charles Moore.

Hey...we gotta polish this turd of a signing day somehow.

Moore is huge for us.

So...colossal fail on signing day. Thanks Gus.

The man deserves a raise.

What's bad is apparently they had no idea Pickens was going to flip. Didn't see it coming.

And this is the reality of where we are today:

***Nucelar scenario ***
This is something nobody on this site or at Auburn headquarters wants to think about but hypothetically what happens should Auburn miss on the six main targets AND lose Pickens? Well, were that to happen and the Tigers failed to sign any backup options, they'd end with 249.60 points. A top-20 finish still would be possible, but barely.
4COMMENTS
The good news?
This scenario is highly unlikely ... so you can back away from the ledge.

Most consensus was Auburn. Slight chance to LSU. Even less chance to Tennessee. Even Miami was that 4th. Other than an â€œentertainment valueâ€ visit to Athens two weeks ago, uga wasnâ€™t even on the radar. And still wasnâ€™t as of three days ago. Well apparently they were very much on it. The whole time. He knew it and Kirby knew it. But not much of anyone else knew it.

Fuckkkkkkk Georgia and that buttcut pudgy fucking coach of theirs.

Picked up a 4* RB...Mark Anthony Richards.

And lay off pudgy people, fucko.

Oh shit!!! from Auburn Undercover

Auburn isn't taking five-star wide receiver George Pickens' surprising flip to Georgia all that well on National Signing Day.

Several players have tweeted in disgust toward the Bulldogs, including defensive tackle Coynis Miller, who wants the Tigers to place a higher bid for services next time around. The rivalry is quite bitter between Auburn and Georgia and decisive head-to-head recruiting battles certainly up the ante a bit.

Yeah, but what have the Romans ever done for us?

Well, yeah...but besides the aqueduct...what have the Romans ever done for us???

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #54 on:** February 06, 2019, 02:18:36 PM »

Well, yeah. Obviously the roads. I mean, the roads go without saying, don't they? But apart from the sanitation, the aqueduct, and the roads--

Kamaar Bell 6'3" 320 O-lineman. 3*

May the Schwartz Be With You chimes in on the twatters.

Receiver Anthony Schwartz simply tweeted an emoji of a money bag after the announcement was made. Both players have since deleted their tweets.
But Schwartz did leave this tweet up, which seems to be a subtweet regarding Pickens' decision.

Next two targets are OL Ira Henry and LB Octavius Brothers. If we can land those, it will give us 22 with maybe a couple of late surprises to come. I have no skreetz. Just hoping.
