"No announcement yet, but you can almost bank I'm going to be an Auburn Tiger."Rose said he would visit other schools "just to make sure." He said he'll likely make his announcement by the middle of July. http://blog.al.com/goldmine/2010/06/auburns_first_senior_mini-camp.html Jonathan Rose, CB Leeds, AL 6'2 / 170 / 4.49 Offers (7+): Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, Memphis, Mississippi State and Southern Miss, among others.

lca408 366 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 This is excellent news. Not only that Rose appears ready to commit, but that we are going after and getting some top notch elite talent at DB. I was concerned last year when we missed out on guys like Milliner, Williams, and Robinson and brought in guys like White, Davis, and McNeal. Granted, I am very happy to have those guys on board and based on this staff's ability to evaluate DB talent (Bates and Washington) I'm confident that they will turn out to be solid options for us. I mean, Mincy has an offer list from here to Shanghai, but he was not really considered a consensus "elite" player by any of the services - not just 4 or 5 star material but in actual evaluations. Rose is almost universally considered one of the better corners in this year's class. Chris Jones is also highly thought of, and of course we lead for Erique Florence. We are in great need of some talent and depth in the secondary. Hopefully we can haul in some good ones this year! Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunInRed 16,492 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 This kid is a stud with tons of upside. When's the last time we snagged a great DB with his height? Also agree that if we add Florence and Jones, we will be in very good shape in the Secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
