At the end of the day, we have to put a good product on the field to maximize recruiting wins.   Right now we are selling we were successful years ago in the SEC.   Hopefully this time next year we can sell look at what we just did. 

Sigh…what does this even mean? Just a team that can win a game of two more than last year and is generally competitive in losses? Or having ‘93/‘13 results? Because one of those is very unrealistic. This is probably a 6-7 win team (if you think I’m being negative that’s literally what Vegas says), so we can’t be depending on a highly improbable outcome to pull ourselves out of the rut we’ve been in. We’ve been just a few spots outside the top 15 on average (247 and On3) the last few years. Getting there this year so long as we don’t have 2012-like results is not an unreasonable ask.

Kahlil House is committing June 30, 11 AM.

Well this one took an abrubt turn. It was thought to be an AU-Ole Miss battle with AU leading. JLee, Zach Berry (Ole Miss On3), And Steve Wiltfong (247 Recruiting Director) put picks in today for Stanford with 80%, 70%, & 60% confidence respectively. All in the last 30 minutes.

OK E. How many of these do we feel confident about commiting to AU?

3-7. Blockton, Baker, and Riggs seem likely plus Barber, Crawford, Simmons, and Henderson seem to be trending in the right direction.

Stanford is quite the draw for those highly academic type OL recruits.

Anywhere I can find a list of BCW visitors?

@AUwent If there is a list, it's internal right now, meaning the AU staff has it. Recruiting sites will start compiling names on their own the last half of July. AU gives out an official list to reporters the day before the event, which is July 29th. All that to say, you have to wait a few more weeks at minimum, in all likelyhood.

Florida State has the recruiting picks lead the last I saw.

I knew Golf was old. I just didn't realize he was old enough to be impacted by Pangea breaking up.

LOL.

There's a bug joke in there somewhere but even I won't do that to Golf. I'll let Bird do it.

In my case being over 70 and having played Rugby for over 40 years probably explains why I thought you were talking about me.
