Okay recruitnicks...your thoughts please
« on: January 14, 2010, 09:24:56 AM »
In light of recent events in Knocksville, and other "possibilities" out there...who do you think Auburn finishes up with?  I'm going to put my best guess below, but I want to hear what everyone else thinks.  I'm a listener, and I care like that.


Jeffrey Whittaker - DT
Bryan Jones - DT
Corey Lemonier - DE
Marcus Lattimore - RB
Eric Mack - OT
...and some obscure kid nobody has even heard of at either LB or OL

That pretty much is the target list for Auburn at this point with the exception of adding DT Mike Thornton.

Others still on the board include Victor Beasley, James Stone, and some surprise out there that is being kept quiet for some reason. The last three are less likely percentage wise than the list mentioned above.

I've heard Stone made his decision weeks ago.  He's just waiting on NSD to announce.

I have heard that too.  He and C.J. Mosley have been giggling about it together for some time now.

Per Rivals my own personall skreetz, we are dropping with Thorton. It looks to be UGA for him.

Is this straight up skreet info? I keed!  I haven't heard anything about Stone much.  I think he inks with the bad guys on NSD. 

I think Buzz has a pretty accurate list.  The obscure LB or OL, I think it will be Beasley.  With Kiffin leaving does this open the door to get JC Copeland.  I know he got an offer from AU.

Read Heard that on the skreetz this morning as well.  Someone mentioned that as long as RG is at UGA that is where he will commit to.

After losing Thornton and Stone of the list, I would def. say that those defactos from TN would be a hot target. Beasley has been wildcard for sometime now. Whats good about VB is that he could be recruited as a WR and LB.

I saw it on another message board in a sig and thought it was hilarious.  Sock bunnies are beating the shit out of a guy and then one runs to the camera and hits it with what looks to be a toilet brush.  I don't know, just struck me as funny.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

"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."

My guess is...(in order of who I think is most likely)...

Whitaker
Lemonier

Those are the only two I think are likely to sign.

Not far behind would be...(also in order of most likely)...

Lattimore
Mack

Beyond that, who knows.  I mean, at this point, the remaining guys I think are really torn between 1-3 programs that they really like.  I know Lattimore likes South Carolina, Penn State, and Auburn.  Lemonier used to like Tennessee after his visit, along with FSU and Auburn.  Mack is still likely going to stay near his kid.  If not, Auburn is his #1, but that's a big "if" since his kid is in the picture.

I think anyone expecting that we get all 4-5 of our remaining targets should prepare to be let down...it's just not likely to get them all.

Best Case Senario:

RB, Marcus Lattimore
OT, Eric Mack
DE, Corey Lemonier
DT, Jeffrey Whitacker
DT, Bryan Jones
and the "Secret" commitment (skreets have told me to keep it quiet, until he is named as a visitor...after that, it'll be time to let the dogs out)

Somewhat Worse Case Senario (meaning Auburn doesn't land a few of their top targets):

DE, Corey Lemonier
DT, Jeffrey Whitacker
DT, Bryan Jones
WR/LB/S, Victor Beasley
DE/LB/S, Pat Swilling Jr.

RB, Marcus Lattimore (USCe or Penn State)
OT, Eric Mack (USCe)
DT, Mike Thornton (UGA or Penn State)

*word on da skreets...if Auburn doesn't land Marcus Lattimore, they will be done at the RB position, they will not go after Lache and DJ Howard will get more of a look at the RB position (a position that he can definitely play)*
