Our LB options seem to be drying up.

It's a scene we've been exposed to before this year. Now, there's still time to make something happen at LB, but every time "another one bites the dust' our options are reduced by one. I do think that if we can sign Mississippi kid Deick Hall, then either he or this year's freshman, Jubinor, will be moved to LB full time. That will help with numbers at the LB position, but signing Pappoe plus two more quality true LB's this year would be a better solution. However, as you point out, the options are dying up.

I won't be surprised if MD does choose to go elsewhere. I wanted to get away from home to go to college, as most kids do. That's a very, very big obstacle to AU signing kids from Auburn High school.

Wrong recruit Doc. MD is likely committing to Florida next week. Based on when you posted I thinkyour post was meant for Colby Wooden.

thanks!

Not yet. There are still legit options out there. Including guys committed to other schools.

Lets just round this LB class out with Marshall/Hopper and Dean and call it a day.

Wouldn't add all 3. 3 is the max in the class. Staff may settle for 2 total.

I took it as either Hopper or Marshall and Dean.

We don't realistically have a shot at Dean, do we?

Word out of Mississippi is we are in it with him more than people think. Not sure how much more that is though.

Have a feeling AU will stay on him & it won't be over soon.

Wish him well.  Know the feeling to be from Auburn and realize the opportunity to get away and spread your wings.  Good for him.

Bad things happens when Auburn High stars choose UF.

Just have to keep the burners hot! I think we'll keep this kid at home. Keep him away from the Mullet man.

I'd like to get him at Auburn, but I really think the main deal with him is he wants to go away from home to attend college. Most of us wanted that too, at that time in our lives.

I think we have a better chance at Flipping Tyron Hopper FWIW.

Because he’s terrible and needs to be fired

Firing a high school football player would be interesting to see.

The kid might really like Jorts.  If so then UF is the place.

Tell him, I said hello and help him get the game plan together for UW next week. We need a fast start.

[AlaskanFAN 1,665]

He did not play past mid 2nd quarter. Heck all the Auburn High starters on offense and defense were out of the game by mid second quarter. Wilcox Central was way overmatched

Love the defensive staff but this was a real headscratcher to me. AU could never overcome being so late to offer. In the end that mattered.

It’s been discussed earlier in the thread why we were behind. Still lots of time until December!
