Until the kid has a negative influence on AU or the team, I am happy to have him. Most of us are happy to give him an opportunity. We are just pointing out that this is an uncharacteristic desperate move for Gus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in winning at a high level to increase job security so others can't negatively recruit the job security against us or it falls on def ears then yes I agree.

ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 If he commits to us and makes it to campus, we better all hope there’s some type of player leadership on the defensive side to hold him accountable. If not, he won’t last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcivE09 582 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I would feel much better about anger/meanness issues if the guy was an OL. That could actually be good for the team at the moment. I hate to see an obviously talented guy getting kicked to the curb. Considering I do not know the context of the "red flag" maybe this is beyond repair. Hopefully we are not talking felony issues. I can think of a couple of guys who went to some other school we all know that were not exactly saints.....worked out pretty well there. That said - I do get it that this is not in character for Gus. Maybe that is a good thing? 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I believe if he’s our “Deshaun Davis” type of leader like what we’ve had in past years he’s got a better chance of making it, if he can get on campus.

tbone4jc 2,242 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I think we need more edgy recruits. Don't get me wrong about the ones we recruit but we seem a little soft against some teams. I do not want to recruit bad people but we could use a player or two who is a little rough around the edges on the oline and dline..maybe a LB also... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players take on the mentality of their head coach. That is why gus can never reach and get the respect of alpha personalities like duke William's, jovon Robinson etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,213 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I think we have beaten this horse to death. We have a young man who is very talented 5* who has a lot of baggage, we need help at the position and also to make the class ranking look better. There is some debate as to exactly what the baggage is. We know he has transferred 3 times in a year and we have been told he has anger issues others have hinted there may be an issue with somebody of opposite sex but that is not confirmed. We have some people who are afraid the baggage will be to much a legitimate view point and others who think the talent and with T-Will as mentor is worth the risk also a legitimate viewpoint. He is available and is a take and Gus wants him so it appears we will get him and next year or sooner we will start to see who was right. There is not much more than can be discussed on this young man unless something new and proven shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice theory. No basis in reality but it fits your personal opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
