jthaub? 

Haha, great work. You've got us taking 1 OL, but all as either long shots or no offers.. Any word on who CJG is targeting heavily? I thought it was Ethan Pocic, but didn't know if that had changed.

Thanks!

[kkolumbo 8]

Cortez Leonard= Green

Also, give us a little more credit on the OL side. Khaliel Rodgers, Derwin Gray, and Ethan Pocic are all guys I'd say we have pretty decent shots with.

Why did Pocic decide not to come the BCW? (Per BM of 247)

Hmm, good question. I think CJG knows and save a surprise for us like with westerman, kozan and diamond in past two recruiting classes. I hope we will get 2 or 3 OLs. We will see.

No problem. I'll keep it updated.

Leonard haven't get an offer so wait and see if they offer him.

On the OL side, there will be shocking commits that we would never expect like that. Right now, not much news on OL side.

Why did Pocic decide not to come the BCW? (Per BM of 247)

I don't know. Maybe he changed his plan.

My thinking on Leonard is that we plan to take 2-3 safeties in this class so I'm thinking he'll get an offer soon and commit on the spot.

I didn't see the info on Pocic not coming?? As of last week he said he was visiting LSU, then AU.

Agree with both you guys!!  IMO, there is absolutely no worry about who we get on OL.

Question...Has something changed since our resident insider Jonesy said "something would have to go wrong for Auburn to not land Adams." Based on that I would think he would be in the green column.

e, I think it probably is wise to leave him yellow, because with such a high ranking, offers and "pull out all the stops" efforts from all the big boys, can always cause things to change.  It's a long way until NSD, as you very well know.

Ellitor, it goes back to the ancient question we hear all the time, who do our posters believe, someone like Jonesy, who is spot on most of the time, but has not been posting much lately, or the recruiting services that say they think Adams is leaning to Clemson or UGA now.

[Orange and Blue 17211345162833 0]

I believe we have a better chance of getting Wilkins than Dye, and Alvin Kamara recruitment is growing wings.

[IronMan70 3,277]

I absolutely love these lists and look forward to them every year along with the comments they generate. Great job.

[autan 737]

Is Hutchinson no longer a commit?  Have a feeling kickers may be grayshirts or invited walkons this  year so these high profile guys may be difficult to land.

[AuburnArch13 185]

I was under the impression that we lead for Derwin Gray. Has something changed?

[Budapesttiger 2]

Thanks for the list. It certainly helps me keep a lot of names straight. With the talk of Reuben Foster and Trey Williams wanting to play together, should he be on the list? I know he is committed to UGA right now, but...

I do hope we end up with some big time talent in the Def back field.

In terms of offense we could almost skip a year in recruiting and not notice. On the D side we need some star power.

Should be Trey Matthews, not Williams, but I know what you meant.  Good post.

You're right. Thanks for that. See? If they aren't on the list I get the names all confused.

I find this one really strange.  BM says we aren't actively recruiting him anymore.  Maybe kk or 24 or someone can help, but I thought this kid was interested in us, had good academics, and also could bring along Ngakoue with him.  Anyone?

I thought that I had read somewhere that academic issues kept him off of the field for part of his junior year. Can't find the article I read that in, but I believe it is the case. If BM is right, maybe this is why?

Which color does bother you the most? I'm just curious...

It's good to know that Jonesy isn't my source. 

I believe we have a better chance of getting Wilkins than Dye, and Alvin Kamara recruitment is growing wings.

IMO, I think they'll sign two RBs. I think Kamara will sign with Oregon.

Appreciate it.

For now, Tray Matthews will stick with UGA. Auburn haven't recruiting him lately. Vonn Bell, Cortez Leonard and Cam Luper are on our radar for now.

[au_bsci_04 407]

I believe Vonn Bell is planning to cut his list down pretty soon.
