austudnt23 1,432 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Just now, ellitor said: Catching up is not the issue at DT. It being an overall bad DT class is the issue. No need taking guys you don't think can play SEC ball. On OL we aren't far behind 4 right now. We have 2, lead with Wonnum, are in a much better spot with Trey Hill than most think., And can probably circle back to get Tank Jenkins if we need to. This. Coynis is the only DT that can play SEC ball we are in picture for and we will get him imo even though he says UF leads. We are definitely in alot better spot for Trey Hill than people think.

austudnt23 1,432 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 As for Tindall I wouldn't give up on him just yet. We are in 2nd but USC East Def leading. Now if they have a bad year we could benefit. He is from Twill high school. Twill is an elite recruiter we know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corchjay 5,311 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Ross is so overrated but did have a purpose for our WR group in providing the jump all. Picking up Pickins for next year really helps that area. The second thing on Ross is he's considered the states top prospect and we need to get some of those. Martin will be a loss because he's at the top of the board for our coaches at running back especially for Chip from what I understand. Whats crazy is it was thought we were the leaders for all of the states Top 5 early on... (exception Jack West) Ross, JAD, Miller, Joiner, Martin/Williams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(exception Jack West) Ross, JAD, Miller, Joiner, Martin/Williams We weren't thought to lead for Williams til recently. Also was not early leader for Martin because he was bothered we didn't offer him sooner than we did. 1 hour ago, corchjay said: The second thing on Ross is he's considered the states top prospect and we need to get some of those. IMO that's no reason to take a player. Given the high attrition rates at every school now-a-days we need to get player who we feel can play & stay, not because of recruiting site rankings.

Beaker 2,457 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I know this is like 2nd or 3rd level speculation, but who do we pick up IF Fields chooses Auburn? Anyone not on the list? I know that is beyond 'sketchy', but Fields is unique and may draw someone (like Peirce as stated above). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sooooooooooo ready to land a big time corner in enemy territory in mobile but of course alabama can play catch up in crutin better than anyone. They came OUT OF NOOOOWHERE to grab him. We really screwed up big leads we have had the last 2 classes at st pauls with ryan johnson and JAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehighfan 1,240 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 In my thinking if we get Fields a lot of the offensive recruiting will take care of itself. As for defensive lineman I harken back to the Dye years when we had DL's running out of our ears. Maybe those days will come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austudnt23 1,432 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Mine as of now. JF TH DW SW CM KM RJ AM of those I am not very confident just saying we lead or have great shot as of now Asa KM. With KM I would put it 50/50 as of now maybe 55/45 AU. Asa could be playing us or might change his mind before Thursday. With a bad season or bad showing on offense remove JF TH. Also wouldn't write off CT to usc east just yet. Quay Walker is another name to keep in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, not deer antler, lol. Anyway, back to the topic. If the 8 mentioned by 23 somehow all ended up AU we would be in great shape for a top 5 class you would think.
