Those close to TD indicate Bama's preferred LB from JUCO isn't going to have the grades. They are full court pressing. AU pushing to make this weekends visit an OV to hopefully seal things up. Hopefully TD sees how valued he was to AU and that there is early PT. Going to be a bumpy ride. He does love the coaches and his fellow LB recruiting commits, so we'll see.

ellitor 33,128 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Great read on TD... Quote Auburn commit, Alabama all-star linebacker T.D. Moultry: 'I'm not a normal recruit' Expect Auburn commit T.D. Moultry to play with an extra edge in Saturday's Alabama-Mississippi All-Star game, just like he will for future Iron Bowls. Moultry, a linebacker who grew up an Alabama fan, committed to Auburn in May. Alabama didn't recruit him as hard, he said, at the time. The Jackson-Olin standout was a late add for this week's game, which will be played on Saturday at noon at Montgomery's Cramton Bowl. He likely would have been an original selection, but was choosing to focus on the Jan. 7 U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio. He was asked again if he wanted to play after Markail Benton had to drop out due to a knee injury. "(Because of) my family, my community, my city and most definitely my state," the 6-foot-3, 224-pound Moultry said. "I just like to compete so I wanted to come out here and compete with these young men before we go off to college. Being out here is like family to me because football is family." He's part of an Alabama team that includes four Auburn commitments. McAdory cornerback Malcolm Askew, Oxford linebacker K.J. Britt, Muscle Shoals safety Jordyn Peters and Hewitt-Trussville receiver Noah Igbinoghene are the others. "So far, they're all playing good and looking good," Moultry said after Wednesday's practice. "That's good to showcase for Auburn to let Auburn know how we're doing." Moultry was locked in with Auburn, but wanted to take official visits to other schools to enjoy the process. But that likely won't work out, and it's probably because schools feel like there is no way they can get him to flip his pledge. They're right. Alabama showed more interest late in the season, but it didn't matter. Moultry did secure tickets to the Iron Bowl, but he went as an Auburn fan, not as a recruit. "They had (come on late), but I told every college coach and my coach told them - he told them that I'm not a normal recruit," Moultry said. "I told every coach who recruited me that I was committed to Auburn and didn't want to be recruited any more. Jackson-Olin's T.D. Moultry has already survived a gunshot wound, and he plans to continue his football career at Auburn. "I didn't tell 'Bama because they didn't recruit me as hard. I don't know why they started now. I told Georgia that I wasn't coming there because y'all didn't tell me about education. I let every coach know that I'm a young man and I'm not a recruit. If you recruit me, I'm like family. I'm a family-type guy. "That's how I got to Auburn. That's how they recruited me when they started and that's how they still recruit me." Moultry said he didn't waver after growing up an Alabama fan. "It wasn't hard," Moultry said. "When you grow up, you realize that the stuff you like, it doesn't matter any more. You go where your heart tells you." When asked if he'll play with an extra edge in the Iron Bowl, Moultry said, "I will have to. It's a rivalry game, so I will have to. Just like Alabama-Mississippi, it's a rivalry game. You give that 110 percent, but you have to give that 115-120 here." Auburn landed its fourth commitment for the 2017 class when Jackson-Olin four-star linebacker T.D. Moultry pledged to the Tigers. Moultry will likely play inside linebacker for Auburn, but could also move outside and be a pass rusher or play with his hand on the ground. His frame will allow more weight. Moultry skyrocketed up recruiting rankings and is No. 3 on the AL.com A-List after a big senior season. He's a four-star recruit, ranked No. 156 nationally, but could move up even more as all four services - 247Sports, Rivals, Scout and ESPN - adjust postseason rankings. 247Sports has Moultry ranked No.49 overall and No. 1 in the state individually. Moultry helped lead Jackson-Olin to its first playoff berth in 17 years. He had 133 total tackles, five sacks, 10 tackles for loss and two fumbles forced. "My coach (at Auburn) told me inside, but for my speed and my hands, he'll probably put me down (on the edge)," Moultry said. "He told me that, after three or four years when I get into college, if God blesses me to go to the league, he wants scouts to look at me because I'm versatile. He wants me to play inside or outside. If he wants me to put my hand on the ground, I will." 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aufan57 922 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) Quote After getting into the backfield and nearly recording a sack at the recent U.S. Army All-American Bowl in Texas, Auburn linebacker commit Tadarian Moultry of Birmingham (Ala.) Jackson-Olin returned to the sideline. There, he was greeted by a middle-aged man in a gold jacket who immediately coached him up. The person's voice was forceful. He moved his arms to explain how he wanted something done. That man was Auburn legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Kevin Green, who served as an honorary coach in the game. “I just listened,” Moultry said. “I just had to slow myself down. Sometimes I play too fast. He told me, ‘You’re going to be a pass rusher when you get in college.' Moultry and his coach at Jackson-Olin, Tim Vakakes, met Greene two days earlier at an Army Bowl meet-and-greet function. “I went up to TD and explained to him who (Greene) was,” Vakakes said. “There were talking about pass rush moves. I was kind of telling him how TD hadn’t rushed the passer much. He started talking about his moves. He told TD, ‘Limit your moves.’ He said he had two moves. The first move, he said, was 'Whip his a—. Go straight through him. My second move was off of that.’ He kept saying you have to limit how many moves you have. TD was just listening. … It was incredible.” Moultry, who isn’t the type to be star struck, enjoyed the experience of meeting Greene and later getting coached up by him. “It was nice seeing him,” Moultry said. “I really didn’t know who he was at first. But it was nice learning from somebody who knows these types of things. I don't turn it down." As you might expect, Greene also mentioned his affection for Auburn, where he was a star in the mid-1980s, when talking with Moultry. He told Moultry about Auburn’s family vibe and threw in a War Eagle or two during their conversations. “He loved it (at Auburn),” Moultry said. Moultry, who is big on watching film of elite players such as Vonn Miller, now plans to add a new name to his Youtube playlist. “He said he was going to watch Kevin Greene stuff now,” Vakakes said. http://auburn.247sports.com/Article/Auburn-legend-and-Hall-of-Famer-Kevin-Greene-coached-Tigers-comm-50606232 Edited January 17, 2017 by aufan57 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
