Repasted and forgot. Thanks for pointing out. No worries. I agree with your original point, by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the game and the x's and o's That's what a lot of people think, and I used to also. Unfortunately, x's and o's make up at most 25% of coaching I would say. Motivating, teaching, and dealing with extraneous off the field BS comprises much more of the job. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kd4au 1,145 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Welcome to the family Josh, glad you get to live your dream and play for your life long team the Auburn Tigers. Always good to get these kids that really want to be here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastal Tiger 84 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Congrats and War Eagle Josh! Not to get ahead of myself, but Josh looks like a player that will be on my watch list for a bump of this thread in a few years down the road...that is of course unless you turn out to be an absolute stud and don't qualify for this topic lol, which would be A++ ok too. "I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work." Work hard Josh and the sky is the limit.

DAG 33,976 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Been saying this forever. This should be Auburn's DNA. Tuberville was ahead of the curve in terms of recruits like these. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have read he will make an impact at AU . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 400DGRZ 23 Posted July 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Marsh's high school coach is Jere Adcock, one of the most respected names in alabama high school football. He's coached at Decatur for 20 years. His teams are always hard nosed and he knows talent when he sees it. Multiple players to D1 over the years and even NFL...Jerraud Powers and Rolando McClain to name a couple. If he says it, believe it to be the truth. "Before Marsh left for the Auburn camp, Decatur coach Jere Adcock had a feeling his star linebacker would leave with an offer. “He’s that good,” Adcock said. “We’ve had guys in our program play in the SEC before, and he’s as good as any we’ve had here. Smart. Athletic. Great character. He has everything you need to be successful.” “The young man is active in a lot of different things — a whole lot of things that are extremely positive,” Decatur coach Jere Adcock said. “He’s about as well-rounded of a student-athlete that we’ve had, and he’s one heck of a football player. An extremely intelligent, humble young man with a ton of natural talent: That’s the best way to describe Josh.” “He’s one of the best linebackers we’ve had here in our program, and over the years, we’ve had some darn good ones,” Adcock said. “When you watch film, you notice that Josh almost always is around the football. “That’s not just from skill and athleticism. It’s a product of instincts and football IQ. That young man plays the game extremely well. He’s a dang good one.” “He’s just an extremely humble kid,” Adcock said. “No level of success is going to change that. And that’s why his teammates love him. He’s always going to be a team-first kind of guy.” Edited July 23, 2017 by 400DGRZ 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually plan to get a replica of that helmet and put it in my man cave. On the Jay Prosch avi, I think I made it my avi a little bit before his mom passed away so it's just gotten hard for me to change it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying you think we should have slow-played Marsh, let him get a little angry and disgusted with us and then sign with MSU? Such as that has happened several times in recent seasons. There's no reason to hold back an offer unless you don't really want the guy. I like this pickup and apparently our coaches do too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardin Drake 1,822 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I couldn't disagree more that we are early on this offer. This kid has done it on the football field. There is no question that he has a high football IQ. They just needed to verify that he had the athleticism to back it up at the college level. They saw that he did; at that point it's an easy decision. It's not hard to measure speed and size. But at linebacker, in particular, the most important thing is being it the right position and making plays. Nobody we are recruiting at that position does it better. This kid is not a backup plan; we took him because we think he can play for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to this we took him as a Star which is a LB-S hybrid & I don't think we had any other targets at that position in the class. If the staff wants someone in that role he looks like a great pickup to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabrasco 127 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I am more than happy to have him. He loves Auburn and wants to be at Auburn. Players that play for the love of the game or the love of the school, play with a lot of heart. Give me a 3 star with heart to match your 4 star any day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravejd 3,270 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 This kid looks like a baller to me. He has great size and speed and could be a great swiss army knife for the Defense. If he comes in a bulks up he can move to LB and if he stays on the lighter side he can be more of a safety/nickel back. I mean 360 tackles between his Sophmore and Junior seasons?!?! Are you freaking kidding me. That right there shows desire and you can never have enough of that in a player. Glad to have you aboard Mr. Marsh! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClarkGriswold 108 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 This article on al.com says he ran back to back 4.43 this past weekend.
