Or for those who prefer to view signing day through Orange and Blue Glasses, I give you http://www.auburntigers.com/genrel/012915aac.html . 6-hours of Auburn produced signing day coverage.

Well there ya go. Be sure to notice on the OP that the SEC network + will be doing an Auburn show at 7am on NSD. There is no excuse for not calling in sick that day.

If it's like last year's show it's meh & not worth it. This is a rare year where most of the AU drama will be in the afternoon. If it's like last year the AU show will be over by then.

Just checked & yep! The show will be over 2 hours before Derrick Brown & EJ Price commit.

Oh well. I'll be up at 6am along with the fax machine and plan on being in my PJ's most of the day. It's NSD, man.

Me too. I will have my computer on my big screen surfin for nuggets but will probably listen to the audio of the AU show as well.

I had every intention of missing work on national signing day this year, but with the oilfield going to crap it's not a good time to miss. I may tune in a little on the key announcements though.

With nine early enrolees our "day" won't be as busy as usual. That's something I like, there are some real prizes already on campus and attending class. Can't beat that.

I would love to see the day that we have at least 20 recruits coming in as early enrollees. This would cost the recruiting services a lot of $$$$$ not sure it would ever get to that many, but boy would that look great for Auburn and would signal that we are doing things that right way and are putting the student's academics way above the rest of the fray. I wonder how we rank in the SEC when it comes to early enrollees? I would guess we are near the top.

True. We really do have a stellar EE class with some studs, especially since some of those could have made us nervous if they waited until signing day with the coaching changes on defense.

Last year was a roller coaster. Turned out well in the end but by the time Ce Ce was about to announce, it was hitting the fan.

Here's to a smooth ride!

It should be noted that they are live on auburntigers.com from 6AM to 10 AM and then they will be back again this afternoon to recap everything. Looking good so far. Rod Bramlett, Stan White and Cole Cubelic on the coverage there.

Don't forget Ronnie Brown and Jason Cambell. They are all doing a great job so far.

At the beginning of the show, rod said 6 hours of live coverage. Unless that is including a 2 hour recap later.
