He also can play slot WR or DB & is open to those positions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are rich with inexperienced qbs as we stand. We're likely losing one at some point to position change or transfer & would be down to 3 schollied QBs. Gus wants 4 at minimum if possible.

I think folks are severely overestimating the transfer thing. Most kids know they might not start. This guy isn't Justin Fields or Trevor Lawrence. Or Bo Nix. He knows that.

I will say that I should've watched his film before making that statement. Kid is a baller though. He could fit in nice as a backup for Bo and yes he has the speed and quickness to play several other positions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autan 811 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Kid is a 4* and very good athlete I hear. I doubt if we are at top of his list. Maybe that will change after OV. If he is willing to play anywhere to help the team he's my kind of football player. Hope he becomes an Auburn man. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a lot of those variables don't have anything to do with football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,109 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 For what it’s worth, Plumlee is a crazy athlete. A number of schools in MS and elsewhere recruited him as a DB/WR/Ath as opposed to QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddc 13,197 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) @ellitor How do all these transfer guys who are on scholarship affect our numbers? Just the 85 ?? limit right (not sure of the number). Makes no difference in our annual number we can recruit?

All players who get their first scholly from the school they are attending before having been at that school 2 years has to count against the yearly 25 Initial Counter/new player limit regardless of where they were previously. This includes transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely this weekend (except maybe the GT HB visiting right now) but Brown could commit this week. The rest of our targets seem to be wanting to wait until Sunday.
