PowerI 0 Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Rivals has him rated as the top prospect in the country. He looks to be an outstanding receiver and with the receivers Auburn is losing next year, we need some more receivers. I just don't understand why Auburn has not been going after him. bammer is, why aren't we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowerI 0 Posted January 8, 2005 Author Share Posted January 8, 2005 Because he has not listed us as one of the schools that he is interested in and even if he has no interest in us, Rivals usually lists the schools that are recruiting him.

MDM4AU 332 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Regardless of whom he's narrowed it down to...he's in ttown right now... Yeah, "Big Willie" visited a bunch of schools last year he had no intentions of playing for. Don't get our hopes up, BG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,107 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 i could care less if fred rouse wants to go to ttown and lose to auburn four or five years in a row. that's his decision. all i know is if our coaches don't recruit him, i don't want him.

AUbirdie 0 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 montez billings, our other big time reciever commitment, did well on his ACT. he projected as a non qualifier but now it looks like he may be able to play next year. that gives us plenty of recievers for next year.

TitanTiger 20,499 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Rouse sounds like the real deal, but has it occurred to anyone that we aren't recruiting him because we contacted him early on and he told us straight up he wasn't interested in coming to Auburn? I mean, it happens. Maybe he's not a small-town guy. Maybe he still sees us as a run-oriented offense or thinks that we'll revert to that with Jason gone. Who knows? Not every kid is for Auburn and Auburn is not for every kid. It's no different for other places. Sometimes the small town, family feeling that Auburn has is appealing to kids, either because they are already small town guys (Carnell) or are city kids wanting to get out of that rat race (McClover, the Dillard connection). Sometimes it doesn't. Good luck whereever you end up Fred. But if you end up in T'town, get used to losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Eye 7 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Rivals has him rated as the top prospect in the country. He looks to be an outstanding receiver and with the receivers Auburn is losing next year, we need some more receivers. I just don't understand why Auburn has not been going after him. bammer is, why aren't we? 137389[/snapback] All of our starting receivers are returning, except Silas Daniels. And we have several Fr. and So. WR's coming up. Courtney Taylor, Mix if he doesn't go NFL, Obomanu, Aromashadu, and plenty other talent is still here. I think we are good on receivers. Maybe next year we might want to pursue some receivers, but I think we'll make it through this year with really good talent at the WR position.

Go back and read what I said. I said I read where he had cancelled (on Rivals) and eliminated bama. That's why I couldn't understand why I was jumped for saying I had read something and was just passing along info. Go read the thread before YOU pass along bad info. The fact remains that he says bama is #2 on his list. And you get a thrill out of that? If that's the csae doesn't that mean he has eliminated bama for all practical purposes?
