I got all of that from another site. I don't claim to be any sort of insider. I am the definition of a outsider, living on the left Coast. I just search for AU info, wherever it can be found.

No worries.  Several people love to flaunt their massive, insider penises around here.

Listen to him. He's pre med. And from Oneonta.

The circus that is Nate Craig Oscar Meyers Squibb doesn't end. From fsu lean to Au committ to Au de commit to fsu certainty to hating fsu back to Au lean. I generally just don't care for kids that do the roller coaster shindig. But I'll take him. The boy good. We need wrs. Like, ones that are fast and can catch and shit.

Yes, WRS that can catch are great to have around.

1/22/16

Ahhmon Richards- Miami vs AU battle. Auburn wants to take one of him, Nate, or Nixon. First come first serve. Miami trending

Elysee Mbem-Bossee- Conflicting info. Some sources feel AU will make a push. Others feel EMB is not a real target anymore.

Erik Swenson- Not much noise w/ AU besides Hand following him on twitter. Not believed to be 1 of the top 3 OT targets

Jayvaughn Myers- Believe he and his brother will be Tigers. Jay isn't taking anymore visits as of now.

Jordan Griffin- UK commit. Says he's solid but is on an OV to AU right now.

Nigel Warrior- Temper expectations for NW, he is a UTk legacy and will be a hard pull.

Prince Sammons- believed to be 1 of the top 3 targets on the AU OT board behind Price & Dickerson. AU thinks thy have a real shot here.

Stephen Davis Jr.- AU may be taking him as an LB which could close out the LB class for AU in 2016.

Note: Some believe AU is looking to take 5 more. Others still think 6-7.

Again,  not my information, just passing along info

I very much want Nate and his brother in this class,  however, he better not wait on NSD to fax his LOI, because as of right now,  it's first come first serve between Meyers, Nixon, and Richards.

Even without Nate,  his brother,  4 star CB Jay is a take

I don't think so either, after watching his film. I'll be honest, I was very worried about that. Especially since I didn't see his name mentioned until late in the process.

Really like our starting corners. You can fool Jones once but not twice. My biggest concern (coverage-wise) with the secondary is how well our new safeties interact with the corners because we a devoid of experienced linebacker depth.
That said, our secondary cannot stay healthy if it is making the majority of the tackles.

I totally agree. And that won't be changing this year.  We have 1 LB (Tre Threat) enrolled already, and I've seen word that we are possibly recruiting Steven Davis Jr as a LB. If he commits,  it will finish off the LB class for this season. And to go back to your closing point, if I'm not mistaken, Rudy Ford has lead the team in tackles, the past 2 seasons.  I just thank God we have an All-American in the making in Carlton Davis.

Davis is as good a freshman as I can recall. He came with skills.
Either back-up linebackers weren't prepared for action or they are to be considered stock because talent generally finds itself on the field to spell starters and mop-up. Recall seeing Tre' some and just a bit of Darrell. Other than that I would say we will be in full developmental mode and that isn't comforting.

Been that way for years.  There is one particular poster on another site that has said pretty much the same since CGCs 1st recruiting classes

Jones was a senior, no?  Also, we got some good news with Holsey's Med RS getting approved.

I recall being impressed by Holland (#4 in your programs, #1 in your hearts) when he was on the field.

Holy can't count on my memory for shit. Jones' gone too you're right. And Holsey's 165 and thinks he's 225. We got anyone else?
