He reminds me of Kam by the way he is just destroying people. 1 hour ago, McLoofus said: Yeah, I'm afraid I don't get the comparison. Not only is KC a safety, he's a pretty huge one. That said, signing Booth would make me just as happy as signing the next Chancellor. I was talking about how violently Booth tackles. He is making his opponents look stupidly weak. He is just running over them. That's where the KC comparison is coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburn2Eugene 2,317 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I really want this young man, but the more I read about his recruitment, the more I'm reminded of Justin Ross and the countless others we have gone head to head with Clemson over, and lost... I'm not giving up... I just don't like our chances head to head vs Clemson when it comes to recruiting. We havent shown we can go head to head with them for major guys and come out on top. Hopefully Booth starts a new trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Booth starts a new trend. This one has been a battle. Clemson on top, then AU surged to the front. Now Clemson has fought back and I'd say it's 50/50 right now. Still think he goes to AU. Dabo has proven he can close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last cycle, Ross jaded me and heads up recruiting battles when it comes to Clemson. Let's hope we can close over Dabo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks we lost guys like Smoke Monday, Matthew Hill, & Bo Nix the last 2 classes to them as well as Andrew Williams & Monty Adams from earlier classes.. Oh wait! We didn't. We also lead for Booth's teammate Colby Wooden who both teams want very much. To their credit they mostly beat our tail til recently. They got Ross & McMichael last year, AJ Terrell in 2017, Feaster & Lamar in 2016, Cain & McCloud in 2015, Watson in 2014, & Mackensie in 2013. Point still remains however, especially recently, we have proved we can beat them head to head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make a great point we do win our share against Clemson but remember fan is short for fanatic and many of us have a problem of remembering the wins and dwelling on the losses. By the way in that GIF I thought golf was older than that was that picture taken 50 years ago. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburn2Eugene 2,317 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 @ellitor Ross just jaded me last cycle. If we land Booth maybe that will make me change my view about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the cookout he will be around the whole staff with other players just chilling out and having a good time. A weekly visit to Auburn may mean spending some time with Brown, Steele, or his area recruiter. I would much rather have him at the cookout. Maybe I'm wrong. Like I said before, I hope there is a huge thunderstorm in Clemson that day lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because AU Rivals is the AU beat's version of Tub's Good Ol' Boys coaching club with his coaches. JGT & BMatt do all the real work while JLee occasionally chimes in with info that is wrong majority of the time. If JGT was smart he'd get some fresh blood in there who likes to work in B-Wolk.
