JFDTiger80 790 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I am attaching HUDL film on Harrell. He goes to Creekside HS,a very good program. He quick and strong in the film. http://www.hudl.com/athlete/o/2197525/highlights/89976377 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmot 0 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 He visits Auburn twice in one week, tweets that he was offered by Gus, which seems to excite him, and days later he decommits from Ole Miss (and Hosely insinuates it's because he's committed to Auburn) . Doesn't take a detective to put the pieces together. I'd say he's pretty high on our board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagle84 0 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I am attaching HUDL film on Harrell. He goes to Creekside HS,a very good program. He quick and strong in the film. http://www.hudl.com/...lights/89976377 Thanks for that link. He looks like a dominating run blocker, but I saw very few pass plays where he was protecting the pocket. There were several screens where he pulled and ran downfield to block for the receiver (pretty quick for a big man), but not much pass protection. Is that because of the offense Creekside runs? (Same reason you didn't see GR pass protecting much and why he's being knocked by some for lack of pass blocking ability?) I would expect him to be upgraded to 4* before the end of the season. Hope he picks the good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie1860 27 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Greg can learn what he needs to, another year would have done him no good even though J.B. would have helped him get even better. (I know you didn't say he should have stayed) The improvment was obvious between 2012 vs. 2013. His ceiling is way up there. I think we are looking at guys that are Maulers on the OL. But guys who are athletic enough to play more than one spot. Whether it's Guard/Center or Guard/Tackle, it makes it much easier to gel a group together if some can play more than one spot IMO.

JFDTiger80 790 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Harrell looks outstanding to me. He moves really well for his size, pulling and getting downfield. I am excited we lead for him. Come on Harrell, pull the trigger for the good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autan 737 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 OL recruiting is crazy this year. We're at the top or near the top for so many big-time guys, but we will only sign 4 or maybe 5 as I understand it. It's not going to be easy to make the numbers work out this time around. I had thought Ivey, Richmond and maybe Brown were definitely at the top of OT board and Patterson, Warmack and maybe Daniels would be our top targets with committable offers at OG/OC. But it now seems Harrell, Kim, Carr, and Sharp may be takes (or will be very soon) and are likely looking to commit this summer. So if we don't accept their committals we likely lose them. And we have DWilliams and BKennedy coming on strong as well, so it's not going to be easy decisions for CGM and CJBG. I guess it's a good problem to have in a way, but a little too stressful for me. That being said, I have no doubt that this staff will make the right decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,062 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Marquel Harrell @HarrellMarquel 14m I'm officially committed to the University of Auburn. #WarEagle #WDE Justin Hokanson @JHokanson 1m I’d sit tight with the Marquell Harrell decision.

autan 737 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Strange! Out of the blue decides to commit today without any rumors or fanfare. Welome Mr. Harrell. If this holds up I bet there are a lot of CBers who will be flipping somebody back to UGA before Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUTiger2012 84 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Kaleb Kim is probably all UGA anyway right? I doubt that, and if I am right this guy is a guard, and projected to play that too. Should have no effect on Kim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have no effect on Kim. Are we recruiting any centers or is the plan likely to involve moving one of the guards to that spot in the future?

AUTiger2012 84 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Are we going to take his commitment? He said he talked to coach Grimes before giving his verbal, so I assume after the convo with Gus yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
