May not need it if he has a great Spring. He'll be in a 3 way competition for 2 OT spots with Buskey & Trox (who is missing the whole year with another knee injury) as things are now. Cohen could be a starter but I never expect that from a true frosh til I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the uncommitted guys we are in best position with now It's nearly impossible to get to a top 5 as things are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we land him, this will be a nice class of OTs and OGs. If sign him, do you think we will go after anymore OTs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If sign him, do you think we will go after anymore OTs? No. That would be 4 in the class. Since we have 2 juco OTs committed the 2 high school OTs we are in good shape with may have just become priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abw0004 10,134 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 War Eagle!! Welcome to the Family! I love that we are looking outside of the states for football players. Two players born outside of the USA are currently starters for Auburn. Just makes me really happy for some reason. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How his energy translates on the field remains to be seen, but i dont know of anyone else who could given us such a boost in recruiting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Plainsman 948 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Go outside of Eugene by 5 mins and it can get hillbilly real quick, but that would not explain not knowing about Bud Light. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm convinced most ranking boosts come purely off the backs of who a kid is committed to. The other solution is rehire the BagMan and let him do his thing 🤷🏻♂️ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like we are a pioneer of sorts and not many schools have really started to look outside the states like we have. Sure they are not as polished, but I feel like their talent level is vastly underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
