I love this strategy of including Texas as a State we put a lot of effort in. Last year we proved we could have success and look where our latest commit is from! I’m excited with this new approach. We will always recruit heavily in Alabama, Georgia and Florida but expanding to Texas makes too much since to ignore. It’s already paying big dividends!

I’m really beginning to like our new OL Coach! )

Interesting )

I hope we get both of them! Sounds like they both should be 4 stars.

Good point, and I agree. He probably stays a Vol for the reasons you have given but I still would not be shocked if he were to flip.

I still believe we have a decent chance to flip Brooks. I know Keith said Au is still recruiting him. Also RG wins a lot more than he loses. I just do not think this is over. Ellitor must feel this way also since he has kept him active.

Ok will do, thought it was not allowed )

Agree with Gwill I read some stuff recently from a premium site that lead me to believe we are not a long shot with Brown. Not saying we will get him but I think there is a decent shot.

I’m sure you are right about this but don’t you think “if” we get Green this would also help us get Brown?

It’s good to hear Bruce is visiting Greg Brown! He must still be in play. )

Oh ok well Memphis just lost again tonight to Cincinnati. They are 17-7 now, having a disappointing season (even Ga beat them). Maybe this will help us?

Thanks for your quick response. Had not heard Shaka Smart is likely to be fired. Yes that could hurt Texas. Also wasn’t Memphis our other main competition for Brown? With their terrible season maybe we are still in this? I already love our class but can you imagine if we were to add Green, Brown and another top big man (assuming Okoro leaves)? That would be insane!

What about Greg Brown? Is he still a possibility?

We haven’t missed on Putnam yet have we? Last I heard it’s between Au and Clemson? Is that not correct?

E Other than RB, I would be happy with that class. But Gary may be underrated.

I was expecting a big recruiting weekend but that's quite a list! Hope they all have a great weekend.

No problem I wasn’t upset actually I thought I made you upset. Thanks no apologies needed. You do a great job!

Thanks Ellitor AuburnnnTexas and Big Bird. I will keep posting. I enjoy the board. War Eagle!

Ellitor, I think you must have me confused with someone else? I have only been a member for 1 year and I do not remember arguing with you about anything? I usually agree with your posts. I guess we will just agree to disagree about this. But if I’ve upset you I will glad to not post anymore.

Exactly

Usually it will not start until year 2 or even 3 by the media. But coaches from other schools will start telling recruits almost immediately. I know for a fact that Gus knows it was used against him the last couple of years and cost him some players. FSU is a major powerhouse that expects to be competing for the ACC and National Championship every year. If FSU loses several games every other programs including Auburn will be telling recruits there is a good chance a coaching change will occur while you are playing football at Florida State (regardless if it happens or not).

Disagree, I have been following recruiting for over 40 years. If a coach and team are struggling hot seat rumors get started and it does have an impact even if the coach does not get fired.

Well unless FSU get significantly better they will lose a lot of games this year. It will not take long for their coach to get on the hot seat. Can’t hurt us with either player if that happens.

Think FSU poor showing will help us with Hall and Putnam

This class could be really special when it is all said and done!
