I have a feeling he’ll pick Stanford even if Michigan catches a hammer, but they’ve done a great job of keeping it close considering the gap in academics. I’d say it’s an honorable loss even if we don’t come out on top

Per Steve Wiltfong, there is buzz around AU with him possibly committing within the next week.

If we can beat out Stanford and Michigan for him, that would be huge

These are the vibes I'm getting with recent events

To paraphrase an old Darrell Royal quote, we want a University the football team can be proud of.

@Dual-Threat Rigby Not with AB. Academics are very big to him.

Right, the joke is that going to Auburn instead of Michigan/Stanford would be…”not playing school”

@TAYLORKEETON was supposed to be yesterday actually. I haven't seen anything credible saying he moved it to today.

ETA: We have a Babalola thread, which is where I'm moving this comversation.

Dark horse does not mean slim shot FWIW. I would pick Michigan but we are very much in it.

Nope. Stanford has been fading lately. Michigan has been the primary threat for a month if not longer.

This article from this morning seems to indicate he has pushed out his announcement until September:
