The “crystal ball” predictions now have him 92% to ND and 8% to AU. What is going on? Everything hinges on our strength in the trenches. Why can’t Gus and crew recruit a high school OT, and hang on to him?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagleHunter1221 1,690 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Ridiculous. Might as well get use to living in mediocre if not worse until Gus is gone. I’ve never seen OLine recruiting this bad. It’s extremely embarrassing for this university that any high school OLineman worth a damn could start day one and none of them want to come here. You can recruit every position you want but you’re never going to win without an OLine. College football is all offense nowadays and you ain’t got an offensive without heralded OLinemen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagleHunter1221 1,690 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Gus created this disaster. Cherry picking specific types of O line prospects to recruit is ridiculous. UGA and Bama pull in 5* talent at the position consistently and AU converts defensive lineman to save our offense. I rarely get on recruiting forums anymore because it’s honestly depressing to watch us consistently lose out. Even more so than watching us lose games because you already know watching these recruits jump ship forecast an extremely bleak future. I’m just going to go think about Bruce Pearl and MBB. Forget the football only facility. Give that to the basketball team and award Bruce a lifetime contract. He built us into a powerhouse from NOTHING. Gus has taken our powerhouse and turned it into a laughing stock. Seriously, I wish people got behind our basketball team like our football team. It’s light years better than what it was but not near what it should be. This is coming from someone who didn’t watch until Bruce TBH. I’m ranting off topic but seriously, this is ludicrous. I hate it here. I’m straight up not having a good time. 👎 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDUBB4AU 5,121 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Damn we suck . Unreal Gus. You should be ashamed . AU will not compete for championships without strong Oline recruiting.

However when I’m watching games the apathy you speak of takes completely over. I will always want us to win for our players but it’s not worth getting myself worked up over anymore. I’ve never been more complacent with Auburn football in my entire life than I am now. Even 2012. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nah we are in a worse position than Tenn imo. We are in football purgatory. High school doing just enough each season to keep his job is infuriating. Every season is the same!!!

Win4AU 4,052 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I still believe Bicknell can get some talent in here especially if Auburn can go on a decent run to end the year. My real hope, not just for this kid but because it would be cool, would be to somehow get ND in a bowl game and beat their brakes off. “But Gus sucks at bowls” etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keywest 138 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) It is astounding how poorly AU has recruits OL in the last 5 years! OT is a huge need in this class and AU ONCE again has completely wiffed and been extremely out recruiting by our rivals, hell UK recruits OL better than we do now Edited November 20, 2020 by keywest 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) What the hell? When did he say the hell with my Auburn commit, now I'm gonna flip to ND. I guess that's what winner does for you. ND wins and the big recruits and Gus doesn't win and he loses top recruits.
