I can't wait to lose Crawford, Perry and Riddick too! This is a disaster, and one I don't know how we dig ourselves out of. 

You’ve GOT to be trolling at this point… surely …

Ok, but not having NIL $ isn't a very fixable problem. I know we'll probably have more to go around after 2024 and even more after '26, but still.

Reese Baker.

 

True. I just wasn't sure he was a take. I hope he is. We need some HS kids. Baker may be considered a project, but I believe he has enough talent, gives a 110%, and loves Auburn. More size and strength will come. Maybe even some stars.😉

My freakout was over it sounding like a Texas school is going to come in out of nowhere and steal one from us at the last second for the second time in a week.

So maybe we matched Texas for him?

How do you know what the NIL budget is? Or are you basing this off of Auburn getting outbid by one of the wealthiest school in the power 5 for Cam Coleman?

This feels like one we get. Let’s at least wait and see. If we don’t, I agree that’s pretty bad.

While we wait. I just read that Uga’s about to sign their 5th OT for the 2024 class. What the f***, man? How are they able to do this? 2 top 10 QB’s is one thing, but 5 offensive tackles in 1 class is absurd!

They are very good at football stuff.

Pretty easy when you have competent coaches winning national championship

We haven't lost them if we never had them. Although Crawford has been AU lean, but LSU is a school like the Texas schools that can swoop in and steal one if they really want him. I don't enjoy being a bridesmaid (runnerup). Bring some smiles to the Plains MB!!

Slightly OT, but it can sometimes be very hard to tell who the best assistant coach recruiters are--specifically how much of it is them or just being at the school they are. I say that because my first reaction is to think how great it would've been to hire Searels as OC but then I remember that it may not have much to do with him. This was also a  reason why Kirby (in 2012, I mean) wasn't such a sure thing.

@AuCivilEng1 Obviously UGA doesn't see some of them as OTs no matter what position sites rate him as.

@autan Florida is the threat for Crawford, not LSU.

The one that is 6-5.5 is listed as a IOL on 247. The other 4 are all 6'7 and 6'i8

They have 4 pure tackles

Is there a video link? If I click on the YouTube link, it just shows a bunch of videos. Or do they only start the video just before/after the announcement?

@yngwie1995 Not yet. Cole Pinkston is working on it. Also Blocton has not arrived for the ceremony yet.
