I agree an injury could cost us just like every other team in the country minus maybe bama and Ohio state. This is our year trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically we have to show it on the field. JF prefers AU and FSU family prefers AU and UGA. All coaches at AU & FSU etc feel AU leads which is why I am kind of confused at the confidence coming from other teams. UF is a non factor atm. We have the momentum and minus a terrible visit for JF this week which he will be bringing along a stud WR I don't see us losing this one. Now if we flop this year all bets off. Like I said I believe this is our year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell from this post alone that E is a true Auburn man! This is such an Auburn mindset, lol. Never let some good positive vibes stop you from worrying about a worst case scenario ? I say this as another true Auburn man that often thinks this way.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Plainsman 948 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I like the way this is going. I am much more confident in a big season for AU than I am in landing Fields but hey,. Let's make both happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehighfan 1,240 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I've read where sources from AU, UGA, and FSU all like their chances of signing Fields. But I would love to know what Fields feels in his heart of hearts. I hope this is how he feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also noteworthy IMO even though FSU has the most crystal ball picks none are from FSU reporters. There are 2 FSU reporters for 247. 1 has a foggy pick. The other hasn't made a pick yet.

AUpreacherman22 3,885 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 @WarDamnEagleWDE, @austudnt23, @augolf1716, @ellitor Is there any chance JF commits before the season? On one hand, I'm sure he wants to make sure he means it this time. So waiting to make sure makes sense On the other hand, an earlier commitment can help impact the class with some very positive momentum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not on your list, but word was he was going to commit in August. I think the point most are making is that it looks like we'll get his commitment, but if he doesn't see what he wants to on the field, we'll just be the next Penn State.

The momentum will be as great from a recruiting standpoint regardless if he commits to us in August or waits til November. 26 minutes ago, lionheartkc said: word was he was going to commit in August.

WFE12 9,191 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 So fsu feels that we lead and our insiders on here think we are in good position. Hopefully the visit takes us over the top. I mean, he likes us so much that he brought Kearis Jackson with him. Anybody know what would more likely be done at the visit? Activities with players? Sit-down with Chip?
