Maverick.AU 13,281 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Watched a thing about the Elite 11, and they said he was one of 4 guys who had an outstanding day today. They went on to say that he's a "FSU lean" and even mentioned Notre Dame before even mentioning us. With Kai dropping on our board, and the roller coaster with TG where do we go from here If we were to miss out on him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter would leave room for another OL or maybe LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,108 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Tweets on Dre at the Elite 11 Finals Link @TomVH: QB's have just been throwing to open receivers so far but Deondre Francois has looked good. #Elite11 @TDsTake: Kyler Murray has been ahead of the field with footwork, while Brandon Wimbush and Deondre Francois are flashing a ton of velocity on throws. @LukeStampini: Top247 QB Deondre Francois starting to heat up in the PM session at #Elite11 per @bartonsimmons http://t.co/ssFEbnU4UL @ChadSimmons_: #UCLA commit Josh Rosen and Deondre Francois are having very good afternoons here at the #Elite11. #Auburn #FSU #NotreDame #Oregon @Phil_Sports: George Whitfield says Deondre Francois might have the most arm talent at the @Elite11 finals. Hard to argue so far @JoshRecruitment: "@QBHitList: Deondre Francois @Deondre_3 At the #Elite11 Finals. He's got a rocket for an arm! http://t.co/79uAcZoS7t" @TDsTake: Most impressive performers during Session 1 at Elite 11 include Kyler Murray, Josh Rosen, Deondre Francois and Brandon Wimbush. More to come @Birm: Deondre Francois has a big arm - just needs to learn that not every throw has to be 1000mph. @HamiltonESPN: #ESPN300 No. 49 Deondre Francois rips a seam route..."nice shot Deondre" rings out. #FSU #Oregon #Auburn #notredame @HamiltonESPN: 2 quick #Elite11 early thoughts: #ESPN300 Deondre Francois -- ball is jumping off his hand. #ESPN300 Sam Darnold showing he belongs for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au_bsci_04 407 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 247 breakdown of Elite 11 Day 1 http://247sports.com/Article/Breaking-down-all-19-of-the-Elite-11-finalists-after-day-one-29489671 Deondre Francois – Francois had a good morning at the Elite 11 but we really woke up to his day in the afternoon. The uncommitted four-star put together a flurry of big-time throws and showed a live arm. **Top performer candidate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say AU is right there with fsu. These next few visits are going to be very important. AU has gone "all in" with DF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_The_Pariah 0 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 If we miss on him i think it will be because of the QB depth. we have a lot more Quality depth than Fsu, well probably better depth than any team in the country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Plainsman 948 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I would like to see him in at the same time as Ivey and Chandler Cox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeriderga 134 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 He was the top guy in Elite 11, day two. I hope I have the wrong impression, but do not think we land him. Right now, it looks like FSU has the lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NachoHunter 0 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I should have clarified. I think ESPNU is doing something on the opening. I always forget it's technically two separate events. Anyway, looking on my watch ESPN app and it says it's airing tonight at 8 and 11pm, then tomorrow 7am, 1, 6, 8, and 11pm (all times EST). Of course, many of those times are probably reruns.

The elite 11 only part is not on TV til August but the rest of The Opening which will include the QBs in 7 on 7 games is on the next 3 nights on ESPNU @ 7 CT.

AUEngineer2016 407 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 He was the top guy in Elite 11, day two. I hope I have the wrong impression, but do not think we land him. Right now, it looks like FSU has the lead. I see where you're getting that, but according to WDEWDE we're neck and neck with FSU. I trust his insider information more than anyone else on this board. I agree with WDEWDE though, I think that it is definitely going to come down to who has the best visit with Dre. I think E mentioned that we get the last visit, which could be pivotal.

ALTiger 16 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Saw an update on the Elite 11 as far as the top 5 QBs thus far (video is like the 5th article down): http://bleacherreport.com/auburn-football#ooid=94eW5xbjpUIcrbl3D8yiA0C4KfKpcKAR,BleG5xbjrCRf30yn2m9rN9SubX_lr00Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,108 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I think E mentioned that we get the last visit, which could be pivotal. This is actually a situation where I would prefer to get the first of the 2 visits. We've had soo much momentum here to likely pull even that I would rather FSU not have the first remaining visit to break our momentum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
