im4au 44 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Muschamp called Robinson today. Muschamp told him that they're waiting to see if a few of our guys qualify. Muschamp told him they'd give him a call on Monday or Tuesday.When asked if we offered would he consider us? He said he doesn't really know but he thinks it's too late. (Translation: it's probably not too late.) How, exactly, would we learn if a prospect will qualify between now and Tuesday? Sounds like a nice way of saying, "If we miss on this guy, you're our backup plan" It does, I agree. It also sounds like G.G. isn't too happy about being a backup plan for us. I can understand that. This happens with some recruits every year. Sometimes they wait and sometimes they don't. Being upfront with the kid is the important thing. I think this may be related to the flip watch on McGriff. Not sure we'd mind a flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLoofus 35,182 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 We don't want to sign anyone we think will not qualify. I get that, but I wasn't aware of a "flip watch" for McGriff. Is there some discussion of him being steered towards a school with lower admissions requirements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind explaining a bit more? UF has made a push for McGriff and he's a questionable qualifier. I think we have some other nice options at receiver already "in the fold", so a McGriff flip would open a scholly to use on a different position. I don't think we'd carry Kitt for a redshirt year, but would place him in a JUCO and push him back to the 2016 class as a first year player. JMO.

metafour 4,969 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Sounds like a nice way of saying, "If we miss on this guy, you're our backup plan" That is probably exactly what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarDamn2010 183 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Sounds like a nice way of saying, "If we miss on this guy, you're our backup plan" That is probably exactly what it is. I just hope it's not too little, too late. Obviously, if we feel strongly about getting Cowart and have no room for G.G., that's fine. However, if something were to go awry with Cowart and we were too late for G.G., we'd be up a creek...Here's to hoping Cowart chooses where I think he will.

Mikey 16,615 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I don't blame him for visiting anywhere he can. He is our backup plan, a "holla back guy" without a commitable offer. He'd be real, real stupid to not look out for himself and examine options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be real, real stupid to not look out for himself and examine options. Totally agree, Mikey. I also don't blame him for saying we got on him "entirely too late." It happens. CEJ wasn't as high on him as Boom, apparently. Still. kid should look out for himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

im4au 44 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 This situation got a little ugly on Twitter and I hate that for a member of the Auburn family. I wish the kids would quit trolling, and I wish fans would quit tweeting with them. I hope an early signing period will change some of this.

3rdgeneration 6,469 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I certainly hope Auburn fans are not tweeting him badly (pun intended). The kid wanted an Auburn offer and genuinely had hurt feelings. I would hope our fans would be encouraging toward him and wish him the best, no matter what was said.

im4au 44 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 More: Keith Niebuhr 5 minutes ago Quote Auburn legacy G.G. Robinson, a 3-star Louisville commit form Parkview High in Georgia, was offered by the Tigers tonight, he told AuburnUndercover. He said the offer came from Auburn defensive coordinator Will Muschamp. Earlier in the night, he spoke briefly with Tigers defensive line coach Rodney Garner.
