Based on those 4 criteria we should hire Coach O.

Anyone know when the full schedule will be released?

Maybe the coaches know something we dont.  Thats the only thing I can figure, maybe he isnt a fit for us off the field. I dont know Im just contemplating why we wouldnt go after him.

We did go after him.

Recruiting sadly isn't a simple process where the team that turns the crank the most gets the player. There are many many factors that could eliminate a team right off the bat.

If D-III University of Mary Hardin-Baylor called him 15 times a day, would he have Visited? Did they go after him?

I'm not saying we're UMHB level but you kinda get the idea. Sometimes a recruit just isn't interested.

Hard to believe that when a few posts up a guy is quoting Powell as saying he would commit on the spot if we offered. Maybe he was into us early and faded I dont know.

The coaches can't cover EVERY prospect, coast to coast. If Powell had any interest in Auburn, he could have contacted someone at Auburn. I'm sure the ball would have got rolling in a hurry after that.

Exactly. Thats why I doubt there is any truth to the Powell being and AU fan chatter we've heard.

Rivals lists him as being from Moreno Valley, CA.  Im sure many of you have heard the "he's an AU fan" rumor. Im trying to determine if anyone has an actual source for that or if its just a myth.

Ive seen a couple people on this forum reference Ronald Powell as a lifelong AU fan.  Does anyone know if this is true or not? If it is true does anyone have any idea why either A) We arent recruiting him or He isnt interested
