Caleb Jones • AuburnSports
Alabama commit Sterling Dixon was in Auburn Saturday.
The four-star linebacker has been hearing from the Tigers often, as Hugh Freeze and company are working to flip the Mobile, Alabama, native. Right now, the effort is paying off, at least for getting him on campus.
"They’re definitely trying, they’re making it hard on Alabama," Dixon said. "They’re definitely doing that. I love what Coach Freeze is doing, I love what Coach Aldridge is doing and it’s crazy. Auburn is definitely gonnabe a great school."
Dixon committed to Alabama several months ago, but has since visited the Plains twice. A-Day was his latest trip, and from the moment he arrived, he was all smiles.
"As soon as I walked in, [Josh Aldridge] was excited to see me," Dixon said. "He gave me a big hug and just really welcomed me and my family. We just felt good about it. I came here with a big smile on my face and I really enjoyed the visit."
Aldridge, who's the Tigers' linebackers' coach, is recruiting Dixon hard, as is head coach Hugh Freeze.
"He’s very family-oriented. He calls my dad, he calls me, makes sure we’re good," Dixon said. "It’s a big deal when a head coach is calling you. A lot of head coaches don’t do that. Try to be close to your family and just check on you each and every day. I mean, it’s a blessing and I appreciate it."
Auburn is still behind Alabama for the linebacker, but not by much.
"It’s super close, they’re definitely trying to get me so it’s crazy," Dixon said. "It’s definitely a change and I honestly love what they’re doing."
Dixon isn't sure when he'll be back, but one thing will work in Auburn's favor.
"They’re definitely gonna get an official (visit)," Dixon said.
I think we flip this kid.

I wouldn't. He's in a great spot at Oregon. If he came back to Auburn the first time he "only" passed for three TD's and 290 yards the same haters would be all over him again. He already holds AU's all-time total offense record and consecutive passes without an interception record. (did that twice) Those accomplishments brought him nothing but a bunch of haters. I don't think Bo Nix is stupid enough to come back here.
Problem with Bo was he wasn’t a good teammate. He was young. Had zero leadership from Gus or anyone on the offensive side ball on how to handle things. Pathetic. Glad he’s got it together up north.

@AUDevil Publicly 0. Privately, who knows. We did get 3 in February. I'm not expecting any public commits around or at these visits for practice. I think there could be 1 or 2 at or around A-Day in a few weeks. Moreso I think all this is laying groundwork for a big summer when OVs can start taking place.
Curious to get thought from @bigbird & @WarDamnEagleWDE.
Brand new staff, going to take a little while to develop some relationships. I think and told we are in good hands and recruiting is going as well as it ever has.

Man, this thread went from “Georgia’s in trouble” to “we’re a bunch of jerks” really quickly. These past few years of Auburn football have been poisonous. We need to rewire our thinking
Looks like this staff is doing just that.

And yet, he keeps moving right on up the ladder in the coaching profession. Calling someone a "useless human being" reflects more poorly on you than it does them.
Has nothing to do with him being a horrible person. Just look at bama basketball. He sucked as a college football coach. Where recruiting is the most important aspect of your job. Hence he being in the NFL.

Kodi has done quite well for himself and has worked his way up the coaching ladder. Don't let someone with a personal grudge against him influence your thinking.

Such a good guy he stole his now wife from one of his players while he was coaching. Good dude. I can go on and on. Give you three bad stories to any one you can think of.

George Pickens called our coaches and asked them to beat what Georgia was offering or he was gone. Kodi Burns and Gus basically gave him the middle finger and he took the bag. Just a carry over from Kirby's days at Bama.
One of the best parts of Pickens recruitment was when Kodi called Pickens mom a and I quote "bitch" in a group text that included Pickens mom. Classic Kodi.

Kodi is worthless too??? lol
Absolutely. Takes a lot to be told by the AU friendly high school coaches in Mobile not to ever come back. Kodi did just that. While coaching at AU. I could go on but he's gone now.

@WarDamnEagleWDEwe've been talking about the "questionable" recruiting.. You think anything comes from it?
Questionable? Kirby has been flat out cheating and forking over huge cash well before NIL.

Tank was an awesome rb and would have been much better with line play. that being said i always thought cowboy was a little bit better and faster. so with the rb's coming in and the ones we have left are we better,worse,or the same. cole i would love to know what you think on this. try not to faint..........grins. and i am serious. but what do you guys think?
You don't lose a player like Tank and be better IMO. AU will be fine but not better. Cobb could come in and be that guy but Tank was a proven talent.

While it would be nice, no we don't. We have great states to recruit from in Georgia and Florida. We just have to do better than we have done in state for a good while.
Told Hugh is making Georgia a huge priority. Something Gus and Harsin didn't do.
