War to the Eagle 385 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I feel like this has been covered and covered. However, I remember hearing he left or was dismissed from the team, but then continued to see his name brought up and I know he is still on some active roster lists (not that those are always kept up to date). Is he or is he not? TIA Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/149863-is-cameron-toney-still-on-the-team/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexava 6,998 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Never heard anything about a dismissal or transfer. Pretty sure he is still there.

Shift 368 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Do i remember something about him being upset about the lack of playing time and contemplating transferring? I may be wrong about that but I think the coaching staff talked him into staying? Again, I may be totally off base but I seem to remember something along those lines.

I may be wrong about that but I think the coaching staff talked him into staying? Again, I may be totally off base but I seem to remember something along those lines. I think you're right, I think he expressed some dissatisfaction. But I believe it was brief and inconsequential and he's very much in good standing with the team. I stand to be corrected on all of the above, though.

Maverick.AU 13,364 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I feel like this has been covered and covered. However, I remember hearing he left or was dismissed from the team, but then continued to see his name brought up and I know he is still on some active roster lists (not that those are always kept up to date). Is he or is he not? TIA This is what was said when it was first reported. My previous post in the players leaving thread: According to Hoke, Cameron Toney was highly contemplating transferring, but is staying now. Said he was very disappointed that he didn't get much of a shot to play, especially given our defensive struggles. He loves AU too much to transfer.

Mikey 16,781 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 How much playing did he get toward the end of last season? None. Maybe a few plays on special teams. If he loves Auburn and wants to finish school here, that's fine but when you get passed on the depth chart by true freshmen maybe it's time to lower your expectations about playing time.

AU64 10,122 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 He's still on the roster as #47 LB....they are pretty quick to take a guy off the official roster if he leaves so looks like he's still available. The bio shows he played in one game in 2015 and one game in 2014. Was one of those highly rated HS guys who was just not able to make it in the SEC but is hanging in there to get his degree it seems...which is fine with me. Gotta have guys like him to work in practice situations.

McLoofus 35,182 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Cass McKinzey wasn't very good until the right coach figured out how to use him. Toney might flourish under the new staff. He's still got 2 years, so I'm happy to hold out hope for him to have success on the field at Auburn.

Yep....I'm not yet in the school that says if they aren't playing by their second year we should "process them". Would be nice to at least see him getting some serious "special teams" time. Only getting minor time in two games in two seasons...probably more going on than we know.

He's still got 2 years, so I'm happy to hold out hope for him to have success on the field at Auburn. Cass was rated a 4-star 91 by 247, recruited heavily by Clemson. Toney was a 3-star 87, ranked about 250 spots lower than Cass in the national composite, also... kinda comparing apples to oranges.

Toney was a 3-star 87, ranked about 250 spots lower than Cass in the national composite, also... kinda comparing apples to oranges. No, I'm not. The fact that Cass was rated one way and Toney was rated another doesn't dispute the fact that players can have varied levels of success among different coaching staffs and philosophies. If I felt so inclined, I assure you that I could come up with several players rated similarly to or lower than Toney who experienced more success under one staff than another. I merely chose the most recent and obvious example. Again, Toney has 2 years left with a new coaching staff coming in. He still has a chance to contribute for Auburn.
