@Tigerpro2aPlan is for Reed, Zion, & Tennison to move to Safety. There is no NB in Mason's system from what I understand.

Without a NB does a LB get used in coverage or FS/SS? Or is it up to the play call/alignment? Interesting that will work vs spread

@WDE_OxPx_2010 Essentially a second SS or 3rd CB based on opponent personnel on the field & given how open today's offenses are.

Bridges earns Auburn offer, decision Wednesday

Jeffrey Lee • AuburnSports

@JLeeAURivals

Magee (Miss.) defensive back Cayden Bridges ’ recruitment isn’t over.

Far from it, it would appear.

Bridges committed to South Alabama on Jan. 23. He was headed to Mobile to play his college ball.

Then came two SEC offers.

“Auburn offered me on Thursday and then Mississippi State offered me the next day,” Bridges said. “I couldn’t believe it. I was very excited.”

Bridges learned of the Auburn offer in a phone conversation with defensive backs coach Zac Etheridge and defensive coordinator Derek Mason.

“Coach Etheridge told me I had an offer and I was shocked,” Bridges said. “I talked to him and Coach Mason and it felt great. It didn’t register with me at the time. I kept telling myself like 20 times and I still couldn’t believe it. I never would have thought I would’ve gotten that type of offer.”

But he did. And then came Mississippi State.

“They offered Friday,” Bridges said. “I was excited about it, too. An in-state SEC school offering felt great.”

Bridges now must make a decision, and he plans to on Wednesday.

“I’ll announce my decision on Signing Day,” Bridges said.

As a senior, Bridges had 52 tackles, 25 solos, six tackles-for-loss and four interceptions. He also was a standout on offense, catching 44 passes for 606 yards (13.8 avg.) and seven touchdowns.

Is this kid the big surprise KN was talking about the other day, or is there another sleeper out there? I think it was KN.

Really? While I'm a fan of Bridges, that's a little disappointing.

It’s just a 1 or 2 star difference.  In the grand scheme of life it’s not a big deal.

To be fair Big surprise was Todd's words, not Keith's. Keith's words was 8.5 out of a scale of 10 that there would be A NSD surprise.

Safety Cayden Bridges out of MS was just crystal balled to Auburn. He just committed to South Alabama a few days ago lol

Kid seems motivated , humbled and excited . Hope we get him . I know the four and five star couch warriors will have something to say about it though 

[ellitor 33,085]

Title updated.

[casatiger 513]

If he can be another Daniel Thomas sign me up.  As I recall, he was a late add 3*

We all want those 4 and 5 star studs forsure, but those 3 star ish guys can  be the glue and really help set the tone. Not to mention the guys that play better than their “ranking”. Harsin said he was going to find guys that would be the right fit for auburn and wanted to be here. I trust Harsin and Co until we are given a reason not to.

AU tried to get this one on the sly without much attention. Other schools made late plays for Bridges, too, but we'll get the ink.
