No. Some coeaches RT recruits often. Coaches basically just can't refer to a player by name in an interview or in their own tweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be something to have 2 of the fastest HS players sign with us in the same year. Now, does either have returner skills we need in addition to their position skill. Look at some of Shivers's film. He's elusive as well as very fast, doesn't go down easily and makes great cuts. I know nothing about Schwartz other than he's been a half-step faster than Shivers at a couple of track meets 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shivers is a load. He has a low center of gravity huge thighs and has moves like you mentioned. I hope we find lots of ways to get him the ball.

This is exactly what a lot of people said about Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith back in the day. I’m obviously not putting that level of expectation on Worm, but I do think he’s an underrated gem. Ooooops! Sorry, I just realized this is the Schwartz thread.....how about this.....If Schwartz joins this class along with Worm, we’ll have one of if not the fastest class in America!!!

Schwartz without a doubt is coming here. I think Florida ruined it for themselves. He made a Twitter post claiming that he was a backup option. He is always talking to our commits and liking auburn related posts. I bet all the other commits know that he's coming too. Chip is gonna have some fun in the future... Hopefully Schwartz is more than straight line speed...I know shivers is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WFE12 9,191 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 (edited) Quote 4-star WR Anthony Schwartz has already informed selected coaching staff of his commitment By Benjamin Wolk Auburn Recruiting Reporter January 1, 2018 Ready to commit, top WR target has told selected staff By the end of the week, Anthony Schwartz no longer will be one of the top uncommitted prospects. He’ll be a committed wide receiver to either Florida or Auburn. Schwartz is set to make his college decision Thursday during the live broadcast at the Under Armour All-America Game. While Houston entered the picture on a track-only scholarship, the speedy 4-star wide receiver from Plantation, Fla., has decided he loves football too much — his “first love” as he calls it — to stick strictly to track for now. So it’s Florida or Auburn. And whoever it is already knows. “I told the school I’m going to be committing to. I told them. They were just excited and can’t wait for me to come on,” Scwhartz said in Orlando this week. “I feel like it was just the right time. I finally started rushing myself. I thought everything through. I felt like this was going to be the right time. I’m taking a big weight off my back. I’m going to be relieved, excited and ready for my next chapter.” Auburn wide receiver target Anthony Schwartz has told the coaching staff he’s committing to. (Sam Spiegelman/SEC Country) Florida led publicly for a long time, but it’s been Auburn who has gained the most traction lately. He visited the Plains midseason for the Ole Miss game and returned for the Iron Bowl. All the while, Florida underwent a coaching change. Schwartz didn’t see as much connection with the new staff as he did the old one, which gave him some confidence regarding his decision to wait to commit. It made him feel like he made the right decision. Auburn didn’t hesitate when the opportunity presented itself. And the Tigers’ commits did their part to make Schwartz feel welcomed at the out-of-state program. “I have a good relationship with Shaun Shivers. We compete in track during the spring. I have a good relationship with Joey Gatewood and Matthew Hill,” Schwartz said. “They’re pretty on me [to commit]. When you going to commit? I just told them they have to wait and see.” Schwartz’s first Auburn visit of the year came for the A-Day spring game. That gave him an early taste of what to expect from the offense. It’s also when he started forming a tight relationship wide receivers coach Kodi Burns. Throughout the 2017 season, Schwartz noticed Auburn — a team he associated as run-only — starting to open things up more in the passing game with Jarrett Stidham. As he watched Malik Willis and Joey Gatewood, Schwartz said he felt comfortable with what Auburn had built from a quarterback standpoint. When he decides toward the end of the week, those factors will give the Tigers a big boost. “I saw them throwing the ball a lot more this year and then have an amazing season,” Schwartz said. “They said I’m the only receiver they’re getting at my position on the field. They want me because, the last time they were No. 1 in the nation, they had all fast receivers and were No. 1 in yards per catch with the No. 2 offense in SEC all-time.” Even after he commits, Schwartz plans to take both officials to Auburn and Florida. With that said, Schwartz admitted it’s possible he only officially visits the school he commits to Thursday, if that’s what the coaching staff prefers.

kd4au 1,145 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 If we get AS, Kodi will have had a great year landing some top prospects. Kodi gets bashed a lot but it looks to me like he is becoming a better coach and recruiter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malzahn gets the job after having been offensive coordinator here, even has offensive success as head coach...but his offense needs to be put out to pasture? If he's not supposed to use what got him here, what is he supposed to use? I agree that it should be kept fresh by the OC (whomever it might be at the time), but I think the fundamentals of the Wing T are still pretty sound. You can't be predictable in play calling, no, and you can't run it on first down 17 straight times, either, but just scrapping the whole offense? Come on, man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the Wing but how much do you see the fundamentals of it in this offense lately? Shotgun hand off up the middle ain't exactly the Wing but I know what you are saying. What he runs with a RPO QB is a different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
