Literally the CBs/RPMs were piling up yesterday. And given history, it just feels like they're suddenly going to announce they're going to ghost us/go to the BBQ (since PT is committing BEFORE BCW).

It doesn't help that we hear all about these confidence intervals as well too lol. I always laugh at those confidence picks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick.AU 13,281 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 The fact that any top player would commit to A&M after the absolute disaster they had last year with a top tier recruiting class without a major bag would be surprising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean other than going 4-8 I don't think the guy loses his job until 2025 if he is severely underperforming 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is will we pony up? I've heard just now there is more going on here than just NIL..... There is a reason Bama isn't recruiting this guy. That's got lost in the shuffle.... Hopefully., more tomorrow. Edited July 5, 2023 by NWALA Tiger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustache eagle 2,416 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I don’t want mercenaries. Don’t get me wrong, I want top tier guys. I want team first guys and not money first guys. Texas A&M showed last year that money alone can’t buy wins. Money first guys can go somewhere else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there's the 2024 schedule. If they can't pass 8-4 this year and then next, I think they'll suck it up and pay it.

AuCivilEng1 11,026 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 (edited) Yea Bama wasn’t recruiting him but tons of other top tier programs were. I’m not trying to hear that there’s some reason we didn’t “take” our number one target player in the class. He played us and took a bigger deal and the shock factor of committing to a school that wasn’t Auburn. It’s pretty simple and not all that surprising tbh. For some reason, it has become a trendy thing to do to troll Auburn as a recruit. Especially with in state kids.

He was a silent to AU and absolutely no issue surrounding the fact last week but all of a sudden he doesn't pick us and there are issues? I'm personally not blaming anyone here, and I know A&M has the bag but I'm curious why a guy that was considered heavily leaning to AU chooses A&M and now he "has issues" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying you're covering up anything, but I'm basically saying you're either saying something to cover your ass or something happened in the past week to make things change and with how adamant u were about his silent commitment I'm saying u should know since u already made a statement "there's a reason Alabama wasn't recruiting him" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust that he was a silent to us more than the has issues.. I shouldn't have even posted that. The part about being a silent to us, I stand by 💯 Edited July 5, 2023 by NWALA Tiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
