It’s not a bad thing to want better for your team. We all want better for our team. I don't see the benefit, or validity, of pointing a finger at one of our coaches because a nationally sought kid chose one of the 20+ other schools that were recruiting him.

But maybe we should wonder about none of the top 30 or so OTs having any serious interest in us that we know of? Maybe we shouldn't blame that on our TE coach? Just a thought.

No OL, No Pickens, no third running back. 5* morality 3* croots Funny how these are all offensive recruits. Tells you something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I'd like to have had this guy choose Auburn, it's not like we are unique in not getting him. Did the other 21 who didn't land him also have Old Man Grimes recruiting for them? Really? This is what you are resorting to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just occurred to me why our OL recruiting has been off......Grimes is too busy torpedoing the OL recruiting of 20+ other schools to stay focused on AU. Poor guy is obviously working his a** off.

AU is one of the 22 that got rejected. It happens. It's time to go find another one. Should we make a list of every 3* and above prospect in the nation and gripe about their position coach when they choose to go somewhere else? That's a lot of bellyachin', even for this message board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lot of bellyachin', even for this message board. It didn't come down to 23 schools. Don't be as dumb about this as you are on OL numbers. Came down to 3 schools. LSU won. No position coach on this team is getting turned down at a alarming rate as out OL coach and Gus. Gus is balls deep in this mess also. Yeah it's time to find another one. Thing is, we need more than just one good OT this cycle. Need at least 3. We are getting one, unless bama really turns the heat up and make this interesting.

mcgufcm 4,107 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I hate we lost Martinez. Ratings be damned. He’s a stud. Still, assuming we land Cohen, we’re off to a pretty good start. I wish we’d thrown our body at Josh Braun, but I don’t think that’s happening. Still a bunch of very good players on the shopping list though.
