Check this out: Looks like Auburn has a very solid class coming in. Hopefully we can keep the improvement going this season and be in good shape for that new arena in a few years.

* Auburn 2007 fall basketball recruiting class has been ranked No. 21 in the country by Van Coleman of CSTV.com. The Tigers have signed four players. including Frankie Sullivan, a 6-foot-1, 185-pound guard from Uniontown.; Tay Waller, a 6-foot-2, 180-pound guard from Manchester, Ga.; Kenny Gabriel, a 6-foot-8, 200-pound small forward from Charlotte, N.C.; and Johnnie Lett, a 6-foot-9, 240-pound power forward from Mobile.

It's good to see some size coming in. That should definitely help with depth, which has been one of our biggest problems recently.

Not surprising, but relieving.

Kind of like winning the Iron Bowl.

The closer we get to the new arena, the better our recruits should get. And the seven good players we do have now are helping us build some respect as well.

Just curious, of those seven who do we have returning next year?

Only Frank is graduating.

My question is How are we giving these guys scholarships with only 1 player graduating?

The biggest Laughing stock inthe SEC is not the Tradition i want to keep.

"The closer we get to the new arena, the better our recruits should get. And the seven good players we do have now are helping us build some respect as well."

Another 25 plus point loss is not building some respect.

Agreed. Foot firmly in mouth. They had me fooled into thinking they were decent after they beat GW this weekend.
