Why would he come to Auburn when he wouldn’t even know who’s throwing him the ball USC bound I bet. Unless they fear the tampering investigation.

Maybe we get lucky and he didn't watch the draft last week. 🤞 It appears Lincoln got to the kid and downplayed Pitt having a new QB, a new OC and a new WR coach this season. That Pitt situation sounds a little like ours. Definitely tampering going on with this portal thing. It's got to be reigned in 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus planted that crop and there was nothing that could be done about it in a year’s time. Where did I mention Harsin OR Gus in my statement? You said the guy wants to boost his draft stock somewhere else. I simply question why he'd come to Auburn when he'll have a middling oline, a new QB, a new OC, and a new WR coach. Didn't he leave Pitt for those very same reasons? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bur still....this is nothing but a hail mary I agree, but may be worth a shot with a high upside guy with years left. USC and Florida just offered so we're probably late anyways. The thing with Lovell and Dimitri is that they are super seniors I believe. Not sure it makes a ton of sense to bring more 1 year guys in from a roster management stand point.

Seems odd I get we have the slots but I don’t understand why we are spending energy recruiting transfers at arguably our deepest position. Feels like a Gus move just taking the best available.

Feels like a Gus move just taking the best available. You think that Edge is arguably our deepest position? It is actually the complete opposite. We have two guys (both Seniors who will be gone next season) in Hall and Leota, and pretty much no one who has done anything behind them. This is a big need because those two guys can't play every snap, and what happens if there is an injury? Guys like Brooks haven't even stepped onto the field yet, that isn't a player to bank on from a production standpoint in this conference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're recruiting a handful of players right now. We have enough time to target areas outside OL/S/WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
