JFDTiger80 790 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Braden would be a great catch. Too bad Prosch does not have another year of eligibility left. I would love to see the two of them battle in the weight lifting category. They are 2 men with Popeye sized arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do that with Braden it looks even better for the most recent trends.predictions:11/24/13-1/21/14 7-TCU....(58.33%) 1-TAMU (08.33%) 4- AU.....(33.33%) 12 total..(100.00%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the best chance of getting it right given their access to info.Of them theTAMU 247 guy has TAMU. Keith Neibuhr who covers Auburn now has TCU. Austen Penny also covers Auburn for 247 has Auburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if he still has him going to TCU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NudelMonsterWDE 0 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 how come everyone has him slotted as a guatd instead of a tackle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,093 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 how come everyone has him slotted as a guatd instead of a tackle? That's what recruit sites project him as. We are recruiting him at tackle. NFL scout believe he can develop to any position on the OL in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PikesEagle 168 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Braden would be a great catch. Too bad Prosch does not have another year of eligibility left. I would love to see the two of them battle in the weight lifting category. They are 2 men with Popeye sized arms. I' would have liked to see them crush an opposing LB.

McLoofus 35,182 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 So the barbecue conversation was OT, but not for the reasons we thought: #ESPN300 OL Braden Smith said one biggest highlights of #Auburn trip: “They had some best fried chicken ever ate.”@jeremycrabtree Best fried chicken in Auburn?

JFDTiger80 790 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 You have to love fried chicken! Best I have ever had, Curley's Fried Chicken in Atlanta. Closed their store last year but have bought a food truck which will be up and running this year. Curley's is crazy good, life changing chicken.

IronMan70 3,277 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I happen to be a Popeye's fried chicken man. Popeye is strong and has big arms, Smith is strong and has big arms, coincidence ? I think not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustache eagle 2,402 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The old Hopkins Boarding House in Pensacola had ridiculous fried chicken. Was family style sitting. Walk in and sit down with a couple of other groups of people and pass the food around the table like a family meal. That's the way you get to know strangers! Small talk while your elbow deep into bottomless fried chicken platters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
