Grimes’ non-recruiting/mediocre coaching ass simply cannot be allowed to persist on Auburn’s coaching staff any longer.

When do these position coaches generally get canned? After the bowl game?

Mark Jennings is a nut that posts tweets in all caps lock and it makes me cringe. He claims his recruiting formula is so good that Rivals Mike and others are ripping off of him. 

Yep. He spends a lot of time calling out all the subscription sites for writing false stories for clicks and also using his info. Goes a little overboard IMO and comes off as arrogant to me. But maybe his formula is correct and he has a right to be?  I listen to it more when I'm bored FWIW.

The only thing I'm worried about here is how often things change in recruiting. If Ohio State offers at the 11th hour of NSD, he's heading to Columbus right?

TIA

Well I noticed a Clemson reporter gave AU a CB so that seems to be a good sign.

Looks like a second Clemson reporter did as well. So confused right now.

in addition, looks like Clemson site has some nuggets

Easy like Monday morning

Watch out for Malik Willis. This kid is going to be a stud if Lindsey is the QB developer that everyone says he is. Malik's upside is out of this world. 

This is what I don't understand about rankings. I've read rankings are based on draftability. If upside is out this world(a few ppl have said the same) why wouldn't that reflect in the rankings? Is it basically just one guy each for ESPN, rivals, and 247 and that guy doesn't agree?

I see posts about the dates he can start playing. Though can he start practicing with the team ASAP? 

My apologies..I'm a little lost here. Is he officially delaying his decision? 

Damon sayles - one of the BR columnists tweeted this morning that's Stidham was very close to a decision. But im reading the opposite in some places. Know he wants to announce the 14th, but is there anything to officially contradict that? TIA

That's why I think Danjel still plays qyite a bit at the 4 even after AW gets here.

Yep..as longing as he's making plays in transition + knocking down 40% from 3, leave him at PF. Icing on the cake if he can elevate his defense.

I would expect to see McLemore lose minutes, and we would see Auburn mix big and small lineups.   Also, for the Purifoy discussion, he is getting a good bit of open looks at the three point stripe, because the man guarding him is a mismatch and they close out on him too slow. I wouldn't assume his offensive production will go up due to moving him to the 3 spot. It would create a different type of mismatch, and we haven't seen much DP's midrange or interior game yet, so it is a bit of an unknown. 

Completely agree. Luol Deng popped off when Heat moved him from the 3 to the 4. Similar offensive games IMO.

My thing will be - does the offense slow down with 2 bigs in the game - Wiley, Spencer, and Smith? Think Bruce wants to run and two bigs alters that. I really can't wait to see EJ Montgomery. Perfect 4 man for this offense.

One of the posters on SEC RANT AU passed along info that said that Stidham wants to go to A&M, but A&M saying no b/c of Mond. Any idea if this is true?

could just be insiders saying stuff to make A&M look good. Though if he does want A&M, this signing will drag on as long as possible IMO.

 it does not indicate a lack of confidence. It's an indicator of high omfort level with the coaches he already is working with and has a relationship with.

Also remember that plans are for KB to be the Auburn OC next year. That plan may change but I haven't heard of it yet.

Think I remember someone saying it was a high % that Rhett would either downgrade schools if offense performed poorly or take a small HC job if we did well. Sounded like odds were that he would leave regardless. But that may have just been pessimistic thinking during the first 3 weeks of the season.

Unless they get KB 

I think WDE has repetitively mentioned Gus doesn't listen to his assistants like he should. So would KB really make a noticeable difference other than bringing Stidham with him?

Discounting that he's our highest rated recruit, is CA also our most valuable from a "recruiting future teammates" perspective? I.e who talks up Auburn the most
