Brandon Fulse and Jeremy Richardson will get 1 spot.

The other spot will likely go to  RB Javarius "Buck" Allen or RB Brent Calloway.

You do know, that you don't have us taking any "TRUE" running backs.

So you think we miss on all of them?

I see you edited the RB's.. Thanks..

[AUtigers2324 45]

Great layout man. This is a nice sneak peek for next season. Thanks for doing it.

Sorry to nitpick, but some of the guys you listed as RS Fr are playing this year and will not be redshirting. They will be Sophomores next season.

Jake Holland

Ryan Smith

Ryan White

Steven Clark

Cody Parkey

Kenneth Carter

Also, Trovon Reed will be a RS Fr next year; And I'm pretty sure Mincy too.

Holy cow we're going to be young!! 

I think we can still make some noise in the SEC if Cam comes back, but either way we'll have an offensive and defensive 2 deep full of Freshmen and Sophomores!  It will be a talented 2 deep though!

[jreaves 0]

Who do ya'll think will be starting on the OL for us next year?  

Mosley & Greene @ Tackle, Sullen @ guard.  After that I'm not sure.   Any word on how

Slade, Christian & Mack have progressed?

[TigerProwl24 0]

Noel, good list and I have a few questions. Who, in your opinion, do you see possibly not qualifying? Also, how strongly do you feel about Ray Drew signing with us and Buck Allen not? I could see it being the other way around.

83 Wayne Lyons DB 6'1 190 FR Fort Lauderdale, FL (Dillard HS)-???? Hopefully AU

84 Jonathan Jenkins DL 6'4 330 JR Perkinston, MS (Mississippi GCCC)-OK State

Ray Drew DL 6'5 253 FR Thomasville, GA (Thomas County Central HS)-UGA

85  JUCO OL

Outside Looking In:

Terry Bell DL/OL 6'5 290 FR Lakeland, FL (Tenoroc HS)-FSU

Bruce Dukes DB 5'10 190 FR Tyrone, GA (Sandy Creek HS)-MSU

Jermaine Whitehead DB 6'0 185 FR Greenwood, MS (Amanda Elzy HS)-MSU

Devaunte Sigler DL 6'3 250 FR Mobile, AL (Ben C Rain HS)-Ole Miss

Xzavier Dickson DL 6'4 250 FR Griffin, GA (Griffin HS)-bama

Brent Calloway ATH 6'3 223 FR Russellville, AL (Russellville HS)-bama

Tre Mason RB 5'9 190 FR Lakeworth, FL (Park Vista HS)-Michigan

Javarius "Buck" Allen RB 6'1 215 FR Tallahassee, FL (Lincoln HS)-AU

I would take out Jenkins and Drew and add a JUCO OL along with Buck Allen.

What do you think? Everything else looks great and dead on I would think....at least I hope so

I feel very, very good about Drew signing with Auburn in the end.

The only ones I know of right now with qualifying issues are Jaylon Denson, Sammie Coates, and Jeremy Richardson.

I see Moseley and Sullen winning the tackle jobs.  Mack and Slade at guard with Dismukes winning the center job.

Green and Christian backing up the tackles, Harris and O'Reilley backing up the guards, and Burgess backing up center.

Thanks for the info Noel. I knew about Coates and JR but I didn't know that Denson may have issues. I thought he would make it in for sure. War Eagle and good job dude

Auburn will not be signing a JUCO OL. Dismukes, Coleman, and O'Reilly are enrolling for spring practice, which is very BIG for Auburn.

[aun 0]

Chad Slade has really been coming on strong in practices.

Mack and Chrisitian will benefit from offseason workouts and have a chance to shine come spring ball time.

[jreaves 0]

Thanks for the input on the OL.  Considering Mack came in at 361 I would definitely think

he'll benefit from the off season conditioning program.

[TigerProwl24 0]

I knew those guys were graduating early, I just figured we might pull a JUCO OL in this class out of nowhere but that sounds great to me...

I could see it like this, IMHO.

RG John Sullen

OC Reese Dismukes

LG Eric Mack

LT Brandon Mosley

My starting 5.  I think Dismukes starts ahead of Burgess especially given Reese will be here in the Spring.

 

I think Robinson will be your backup at tackle, and Slade will be groomed to be the future LT.  Mack was ready to go this year from practice reports, and Sullen has a lot of game experience and is a different player after losing that weight.  Green's recovery will be very important to the line, but most important will be Dismukes level of play if/when he starts.  I think he's key to how good this line will be next year.  Mack I'm pretty confident will be a stud from day 1.  I think Cooper will push him for the starting position, but Mack has got too much natural talent and ability not to beat him out in the end.

hmmm, how do you know all this stuff yet we havent heard anything about some of this stuff youre saying? im just asking. you must know someone i guess.

Wow!  A true freshman at center.  That either says a lot about Dismukes or that we are that thin at center next year.

[GoCrazyAuburn 0]

yea, I'm really confident in Dismukes from what I've seen of him.

Coleman will not play in 2011, therefore not on the depth chart-
