I've reviewed the "offers" listing as well. Who do those predicting a top 10-15 finish think propels Auburn up 15-20 points? Or, Is it just a numbers game? We'll end with 20 something bodies and that's enough? Do you expect avg ranking to improve? Big names? I have not been optimistic about this year for the same reasons I wasn't last year; Harsin's time in the job and the need to build multi-year relationships. A lot of it is just the fact we only have 13 commits. More commits alone is going to bring it up some, but we are still in the running for several 4 star guys. A poster on TOS broke it down, but essentially if we were to end of signing all the remaining targets we are after we would end up around 10th IIRC. Of course that is not likely. If we close on the ones most people expect to us to we can still break 15th though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything I’ve read suggest that Zak Hill has already been “hired” however he is being vetted by Auburn due to possible recruiting infractions while at ASU. Earliest they would have him cleared would be Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToomersRevenge 284 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 This board is funny in the sense that since nobody knows anything for the most part you hear a million conspiracy-lite excuses for things. So and so has been hired we’re just waiting Qanon style to announce it. We have a bunch of great recruits coming they’re all just gonna surprise announce on signing day and save the class. lt will be a huge victory nobody saw coming. At this point I’m seeing more MyPillowGuy and less Trojan Horse against our rivals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU9377 5,039 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 23 hours ago, AUwent said: Thinking about how Venables is likely OU's next coach, I would've taken either of them. It hurts a LITTLE less knowing that Napier was asking for more than we were willing, but still hurts nonetheless. Hopefully the thing about our PTB demanding their choice of coordinators ISN'T true, though--what other school does that?! I heard an interview with Napier yesterday that put a few holes in the theory that Napier wanted more than Auburn was willing to give. According to Napier, he decided 2 years ago that he would complete his contract at Louisiana. He had a 4 year contract. He said that he had told recruits that he would complete the contract and that was why he had taken his name out of consideration for several jobs over the past 2 years. TIFWIW, but it at least came from his mouth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
