W.E.D 11,070 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Hope he finds a position somewhere. He's not a WR, should be a good TE if he commits to being one. Some disservice by the old staff, idk what HF wanted to do with him Colby gone too. Wouldn't be shocked if Garnder Langlo jumped too, leaving only 2 from Harsin 1st class Edited April 30, 2023 by W.E.D 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metafour 4,969 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 He can't play at this level. Hopefully he finds a good spot in a lower conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be a joker TE in the right O. Hasbeen making him gain and lose weight really messed with his ability to see the field.

toddc 13,194 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Auburn WR Landen King enters transfer portal 29 minutes ago On the final day of the spring transfer window, Auburn has lost a member of the passing game. Wide receiver Landen King entered the portal Sunday morning, a source has informed Auburn Undercover. This marks King's second time in the portal. Last season, he opted to redshirt and sit out a few weeks into the year, but later entered the transfer portal. In November, King withdrew from the portal and rejoined the team. The 6-foot-5, former 3-star recruit from Texas began his career as a tight end, catching five passes for 59 yards and a touchdown as a true freshman. Last season he appeared in only three games before taking a redshirt. 11COMMENTS Backup offensive lineman Colby Smith also entered the portal Sunday, becoming the 10th Auburn player to transfer out since the conclusion of spring practice, joining King, pass-rusher Dylan Brooks, safety Craig McDonald, linebackers Powell Gordon,Desmond Tisdol and Kameron Brown, receiver Tar'Varish Dawson, defensive linemen M'ba and Tobechi Okoli. Only three players remain on Auburn's roster from the 18 signees in the 2021 class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasbeen making him gain and lose weight really messed with his ability to see the field. Just another in a long line of piss poor player management I agree. When you have a guy that really does a good job of getting open and catching the ball, you create some space for them. I would love to see him go to a smaller school that slings it around and excel.

I believe potential was definitely there, but I didn’t hear much about him this spring. My biggest fear as usual, is who is coaching our QB’s? I know HF is considered a decent QB coach, but a lot of people base that off of the Malik Willis years at Liberty and not shockingly, it appears the Tennessee Titans have already given up on him. Here’s to hoping we can land Casey Thompson, unless all the poor QB talk by HF is a smoke screen, which I don’t believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too slow to be a true WR and Hasbeen had him on the weight rollercoaster which didn't allow him to be a TE. Auburn screwed him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,819 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Landen was definitely underused/misused in the prior regime. Really liked the guy, wish him well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburn screwed him up. My point exactly. AU does good to develop a couple of players for the NFL each year. The player development here as been absent since TT. The five drafted this year tied a modern record for AU. That does not equate to development in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would bet that most if not every transfer we get will be better than the guy who opened that roster spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
