AuburnNTexas 7,150 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 To balance that out we need stats on who committed to another school and then ended up at Auburn. The commit de-commit works both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The commit de-commit works both ways. I thought the same but they don't have a flip feature & I am not digging through every recruit to find out.

ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 As Auburn fans we should not be hating on these NSD flips. I mean, when Saban and his plausible deniability posse are telling these parents to add zeros to their checks, I'd probably flip too. I always thought you were part bammer. Thanks for admitting it, now at least we all know. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionheartkc 6,150 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 The biggest thing I got form this was how solid our classes were in 14 & 15. That tells me, until we had a bad year that our rivals could use against us, Gus and staff had a pretty good lock on how to get someone to really buy into their program. It looks like Chizik was more willing to take an emotional commitment and hope it stuck. I also think from discussions here, that Gus is less easily played than our previous staff.

If you say anything nice or positive about Gus or Lashlee you can't be one of the Cool Kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarDamnEagleWDE 12,737 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Biggest punch to the gut for y'all? For me, it was Yeldon. Not that he was our next Heisman winner or even All-American. He was committed to us for a while. Then on NSD, first thing that morning, a bammer bud texts me that they're getting Yeldon. Called him a liar, claimed he was trolling me, and interrogated him as to where he got his info. Can't recall who from, but I knew he was lying. #2 had to be Evans. #3 Foster. Honorable mention, Kouandjio. Actually, he beats out Evans for biggest gut punch because he announced AU on NSD. Bridges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austudnt23 1,432 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Imagine our defense right now with Davis and Foster had we ended up with them in 2013. That would be 2 all SEC and possibly All American lbs added to our current talent on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is nice to think about but the commits after may have looked at the depth chart and chosen somewhere else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
