Players like Sammie Coates is why I love the way our coaches work so hard having these camps. You can't beat in person player evaluations and up close and personal contact. War Eagle Sammie. It's a pleasure to welcome you to the Auburn Family!

Note: Sammie Coates was a teammate of former LeRoy HS QB (and current Auburn Tiger) Clint Moseley.

Really liking these tall WR prospects. Don't forget about Jeremy Richardson (6'3) who is likely to resign. Other targets include Joe Morrow (6'5), Jaylon Denson (6'3) and Quan Bray (5'11, Athlete). Also, current bama commit Danny Woodson (6'2) is giving the good guys a second look.

Looks like a good pick up for you guys....btw, did the QB on his high school team look like he was about 5ft tall....??

FWIW last I heard, Sammie was tearing Reeltown HS a new one in the state championship today...responsible for at least three TD's in the first 37:00 of play..didn't get to hear the whole game though.

Mark my words: Sammie Coates will be in the top 5 players from this 2011 class.

I'm pretty excited about our list of 3* guys, and Coates is a big reason why.

[OldNewby 27]

IMO, Coates has the speed and hops to be a big-time player.

4.31 out of HS. That is all. (Dayyum!)
