I'm fairly certain Jovon's the planted switch. I hope I'm wrong. But each year, they try to appear more and more planned out. More egregious.
Like they want to make sure everyone knows this is exactly what they're doing.

Burton Burns is one of uat's bagmen...I'm guessing a Corvette will be offered. If he turns it down, then uat didn't really offer him a scholarship.

Not so sure J.R.'s path can take much more upheaval. Then again it's not a given that more is better as judged by recent Bama defections at both RB and QB positions. We said as much when the cattle were lining up there. We need 1 QB and 2 RBs each season and we will make out fine with him or without him. Yes it would be fantastic to have another Rudi Johnsonlike situation to fall in our lap but there are no guarantees...for us or the Turds. That said though, his skillset and longevity as a back would be enhanced moreso in our system than in theirs and his draft stock virtually unaffected being that backs are not the prized possession they once were. I predict he sticks with us and makes us proud.

May 5, 2014. Julio "Forehead" Jones is on the cover of a shoe catalog, Eastbay. Predictably, al.com orgasms. Two different pieces on it, including this one.

I put this catalog in the trash immediately.
Open my mailbox today. Another Eastbay catalog. Guess who's on today's cover?

Will Mark Heim talk about how great Cam was and how playing for Gus helped make him the number one pick in the draft? Don't hold your breath.

@AUChizad I have checked it out, but there is no video on @Eastbay's site about how much Auburn meant to Cam.

More from Wesley. So, you think there's some need to write a piece that this kid is still being recruited by tOSU? News flash, numb nuttz. EVERY verbal commit across the country is still hearing...and will continue to hear from other schools right up until signing day.

When safety Ben Edwards arrived in Auburn for the A-Day Game last month, he was committed to Ohio State. When he left, that was no longer the case.
After talking it over with his family the night before, the four-star prospect out of Jacksonville, Fla., decided to flip his commitment to Auburn after the game.
"Prior to that visit, I was building a good relationship with (Auburn) and they were telling me how bad they need safeties," Edwards told AL.com. "The coaches were showing me a lot of love. My family has always been a fan of Auburn and they didn't want me to go that far away. I wanted my parents to feel comfortable."
Edwards says he's "solid" to Auburn and doesn't foresee another flip. The Ohio State coaching staff, however, hasn't come close to throwing in the towel just yet.
"I still hear from (Ohio State) a lot," Edwards said. "I talked to my position coach, Chris Ash, (when I flipped.) He was disappointed, of course, but he still wants me to visit when I take my officials, so I'll think about that. They send me stuff on Twitter a lot and have been to my spring practices twice."
The 6-foot, 196-pounder said he may attend Saturday's Big Cat Weekend event in Auburn. His teammate, Jeffery Holland, is expected to make the trip. Edwards has been attempting to pull the uncommitted linebacker to Auburn with him.
"I talk to him a lot about it," Edwards says. "He likes Auburn a lot and I'm trying to convince him to come. I tell him how great of a school it is, how the coaches are always asking about him and how he'll make an impact right way."
Edwards is ranked as the nation's No. 16 safety prospect in the 247Sports Composite. Watch his heavy-hitting highlights below.

Except, of course, UA commits. Cause Nicky said, if you look then we look. So, they know better. Except for last year when we flipped two of their recruits that they didn't really want anyway. But, they did want TJ, Foster, Evans, and Kouonjouewouou (or whoever the guy is that can't block Dee Ford or Carl Lawson).

Ben Edwards got nothing but NASTY responses from tOSU fans when he flipped. I think he's ok in orange and blue, at least if his twitter feed is any indication.
