BigSammyK 171 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 All I see on Rivals is that Hawthorne signed and Rose is still not feeling AU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffed 0 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 i don't think it was hawthornes decision that affected Rose's rethinking... just says basically that after a call from Borges and Tubs, a good talk made him decide AU just feels more comfortable. and he's 100% sure supposedly.. so this is GREAT news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metafour 4,966 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Scouts player rankings suck either way. I really like Rose, seems like an underrated talent with great physical ability. I've also heard that the offense that they ran at his school was very run-oriented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnGrad02' 0 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I think Rose was a kind of plan b for the noles. I read somewhere that they got a committ from a guy (wr) in the past couple of days. I think they were just trying to use Rose a little to their advantage, like some extra insurance. I think that he saw this when he got back home and wanted to call the AU coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,418 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Thanks guys, We can all agree that we got some folks to throw to this year. With CT, PR, and RS we are loaded at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombigbeetiger 223 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 i watched chris slaughter play in the high school playoffs this year, and i'll be damn if there are 17 better receivers in the country over him....ain't no way......this guy is just unbelievable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quietfan 233 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/birmingha...6700.xml&coll=2 Rose, No.47 on Rivals' list of receivers, committed to Auburn and then reneged to announce he would attend Florida State. Monday's reversal brought the 360-degree flip flop to an end. He changed his mind, he said, after speaking with assistant coaches Al Borges and Greg Knox as well as Tuberville, according to Rivals.com. "They called and we had a good talk," Rose said. "I'm back committed to Auburn now. I just felt more comfortable at Auburn." Rivals reported Rose asked one of his coaches at First Coast High School to call the Auburn staff Monday to see if the Tigers would have him back. "I'm 100 percent committed to Auburn now," Rose said. So how does this crop of receivers compare, overall, to the year we signed Aromoshodo, Obamonu, & Mix?

sogaaufan 27 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I think it compares very favorably. AU is now LOADED at this position. In addition to Courtney Taylor, we have Prechae Rodriguez, Montez Billings, and Robert Dunn that came in last year alone. That is what makes the Bama posts about Tim Hawthorne even funnier. PT from the wide receiver postion this year is going to be very hard to come by. Auburn was in very good shape BEFORE this class came in. Now, they will be off the chart at this position. Wouldn't you LOVE to be in Brandon Cox's shoes about now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tigrinum Major Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Mix was signed in 2001. The other two were from 2002, which also included Lee Guess, Troy Bergeron, and a little known Safety from Carrollton, AL by the name of Courtney Taylor. Hard to beat that group, but I hope these guys pan out as just of good of players and, more importantly, people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McWeagle 4 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Let's not forget Rodgeriqus Smith. 6 catches, 109 yards, and 8 yds on the one reverse they let him run. Would it be accurate to say that, by virtue of letting a freshman run a reverse in _any_ game, the coaches must regard him as somewhat of a playmaker? Regardless... we're stacked. And next to our stacks... are more stacks. And on top of those...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUesquire 1 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 What about Lee Guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McWeagle 4 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 What about Lee Guess? 216198[/snapback] great point. i believe that leaves only james swinton, about whom i know nothing, although he's currently listed just above montez billings on the spring depth chart. anybody have any thoughts on him? also, does anybody know the correct way to pronounce "prechae"? i'm currently going w/ "preh-chay", but i've also heard "pree-chay", "pree-shay", and "preh-shay" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
