I think he’s a mediocre recruiter who doesn’t understand his task. I really hope I’m wrong. That’s funny, we finally agree on something. I hope your wrong too.

Just unheard of for Auburn in the past. Nonsense. Ever heard of AU and NFL star O-lineman Braden Smith? He's from Kansas, even farther away than Illinois. Carlson brothers kickers from Colorado, too many to name from California. If there's something specific you like about Illinois, there's Marquis Burks on the 2021 team from Chicago (Chicago is in Illinois in case you didn't know that). Or if you just want far away, punter Oscar Chapman from Australia comes to mind. Some posters here would benefit from having personal fact checkers. They might not look so silly.

Burkes was Juco but diamond was out of Chicago, he is at Miami(oh). Working up the coaching ranks at OL, good guy, real good guy. I think he was recruited by Jeff Grimes initially Edited March 2, 2022 by auburnphan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t even really crack the rotation IIRC. Before him, FB Jay Prosch (originally from Mobile) transferred to AU via U of Illinois. As far as actual state of Illinois HS players/recruits, I’m drawing a blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, bringing fact checkers on board would take away most of the fun on here. I have family from Illinois and we should be able to get any kid out of that state that we want if we can get them on campus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
