Mikey 16,638 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 It's a rare JUCO player that's ready to step in and help an SEC team. Rudy Johnson and Cam are it at AU over the last decade and Cam had those two years at Florida to fall back on. Even Nick Fairley was nothing but ordinary his first year here. JUCO exoerience does not equal D-1 experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBigCat 17 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Still we've had a nice group of JUCOs come through AU in the past 15 years or so even if they didn't become immediate stars. Also we most likely would have more mentally mature guys that felt they needed to prove something. Hopefully that would translate into hard work on and off the field.

IronMan70 3,277 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 After watching his hi-light video, I don't think there is no way people can think he can't help us for the next two years. I like the way he flows to the ball, he is a sure tackler, aggressive, has a nose for the ball, has very good size and he can lay a lick on the ball carriers. I hope we get him, for sure.

ausburn 159 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Saw his named mentioned in the Ben Bradley commitment article as being recruited. Ark was one of his choices as well as Auburn. 6'3" 238 linebacker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it should be brought up in reference to http://www.al.com/au...01/post_14.html Longino was also one of the first to state Bradley to Auburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottomfeeder 244 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 He's been showing favor towards UGA, believe it or not. But, Arky is riding his tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ausburn 159 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 With Coach Horton on board and the the Hutchinson connection he might offer some quick assistance at linebacker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagle1983 2,185 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Not sure how accurate Rivals.com/yahoo is but they show Longino visiting Auburn on 1/11/2013. They were accurate about Ben's visit this past weekend. http://rivals.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/player-Antonio-Longino-139882;_ylt=Au4IDhII9Sy18ndQbpd68iRGPZB4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsande07 271 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Does this indicate we feel good about some *other* LB recruits (i.e. Foster and Cunningham)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,108 Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 Does this indicate we feel good about some *other* LB recruits (i.e. Foster and Cunningham)? Possibly.

robbykidd 6 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Does this indicate we feel good about some *other* LB recruits (i.e. Foster and Cunningham)? There's been rumors of transcript/qualifying issues. Apparently, he was going to commit Sunday then this issue surfaced. I believe I read that he wouldn't know until Monday whether or not he would qualify to get into AU delaying any possible commitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimas4Ziemba 0 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Longino is a guy who's tape looks like he could make a contribution at linebacker, but I've never really felt he had the athletic ability to compete for a starting spot. From the film I've seen, he looks comparable to a Jack Holland type linebacker. Not very athletic, but can lay the wood. And yes, I do realize Holland is a two year starter..............
