McLoofus 35,182 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Sorry it didn't work out here for him, but no shame in it. He competed with a lot of NFL talent for a spot in the rotation. Good luck, Tre, and War Eagle always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravejd 3,267 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Man. Wasn't he our only LB recruit the year he signed? Sounds like we'll have quite the lb gap to fill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scholarship could go to a walk-on, if under the 85 limit this summer. Edit- Hypothetical, if Auburn did not plan on signing 25 could conceivably open an spot for an additional signee.

Believe walk-ons have to be in the program two years before being eligible for a scholarship. If I am wrong, someone will correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,545 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 This has no effect on the 25 annual limit. If we were bumping up against the 85 overall limit it would help there. So, for all practical purposes this has no effect on recruiting limits this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just means we have to hit home runs with the LB 'cruits we have and will get in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could allow an additional early enrollee. Sometimes there a team is far enough below the 85 limit to allow every scholarship recruit who would like to to enroll early. Also, most coaches always have a few walk-ons they want to give scholarships to. Some attrition is normal, even necessary to allow awarding 25 scholarships a year given the 85 limit and redshirts.

corchjay 5,311 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I wish Tre the best. Maybe he can find a place he can play. A G5 school or FCS maybe play as an undersized defensive end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good decision on his part I read on another site that he had been playing as a fullback this year but didn't get any playing time. His only playing time was 2016 against Ala A&M as an LB. Don't know if that is accurate but that's what I read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,545 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Look like he would have waited until after the bowl game and picked up all his bling. Or, maybe he is still with the team until Jan. 2nd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU64 10,122 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 We saw the "from".....but no hints about the "to" . He's not on the roster now so looks like he might start school somewhere else come January. He could make an impact at a place like Jax State.....we seem to have a good exchange program with them these days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
