Rednilla 5,449 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 For whatever it's worth, I just got off with my main contact, and he thinks we get McElderry as well as possibly Hughley, the big tackle committed to UGA right now. I know WDE hinted at both of them being flippable, but this is the first I've heard Hughley's name on my end. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,334 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Posters go from one extreme to the other. A while back it looked like we were locked in on Cobb, English, Faulk, and Glenn and many posters thought we had turned the corner. Then two changed the date for committing and some assumed that meant we were out for English and Glenn and the site seemed to melt down. Well Cobb committed and even though he waited so did English. Now another player who was committed to UGA that we never had McElderry leaves UGA and commits to bama. Again a meltdown over a player we never had. Today maybe we get Faulk (I hope we do) and maybe not and later same thing with Brock. Recruiting is a long process I believe we have a chance of a very solid class but only if the product on the field is very solid. I want a top ten class but to be honest I don't think we will do much better that top 15 even with a good season on the field as we might lose some players who were leaning Auburn but wouldn't wait to see what type season we have. So best scenario is top 15 and fill in holes in the Portal. Worst case scenario bad season on the field bad class and Harsin is gone or he stays for one more year as a lame duck. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win4AU 4,201 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I was just looking at overall recruiting rankings in the SEC and while Auburn is last I was surprised to see TaMu only one ahead of Auburn. With all that oil money I'd thought they'd already be at 25 5*s. Ole Miss in the same boat but they seem to struggle as much as Auburn when it comes to recruiting lately. Something to keep in mind when everyone wants to jump on the Lane train. If Harsin is gets canned Auburn will need a master recruiter to come in and rebuild the mess that will be left.

AuburnNTexas 7,334 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) SEC Recruiting Update - I pulled this from 247 - Normally I would emphasize recruit rating where Auburn is #4 in SEC but with only having 4 recruits it is to small a number to really base anything on yet. A&M and Ole Miss in same boat good average rating but small number of recruits.

Yes, but.....Kiffin also brought in the #2 transfer class in the country, #1 in the SEC. Apply that to Ole' Miss recruiting and you get a much brighter picture for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

au302 2,669 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I've come to the sobering realization that this staff is not going to take backup targets this summer. I was hoping we'd find a second hidden gem bruiser RB, or go after a raw WR with high upside. Figured we'd fall back and take a developmental QB in Kaden Weisman. Nope, they refuse to give in. They are going to play the long game and try to flip guys like Rod Robinson the RB, Keyon Brown the WR, and possibly JJ Kohl the QB committed to ISU. Plus all the defensive guys we'll try and flip starting with Faulk. Personally I'm not a fan of this at all. On one hand I get it because guys like Geffrard and Avery Stuart aren't closing our talent gap with our rivals. On the other hand I know damn well we can't flip this many guys. Not even close. We are going to have to find some scouting targets this fall. Guys like Enyce Sledge who we found late last year. Like I've said before, this staff has more balls than any I've seen. They're arrogant and likely really stupid, but also got balls. They do not panic and stay true to their boards at all costs. So get ready for fall camp guys, because all I see for the next month is stories about guys committing elsewhere and us holding firm to play the long game. It is what it is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's harder to understand because the annual signee limits are not in effect, we can sign as many as the 85 limit will allow and with all the seniors on the team, we'll have plenty of slots. We could take the backup plan commits and still go for the late guys and flips. We have enough room to do both. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
