AUHansel 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Caleb is the #4 overall player according to rivals.com. Apparently Auburn and UGA are the top two for him. I hope we can get him. I'm sure Brad Lester being here could have some pull. Heres the rivals.com article Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarTiger 3,923 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Been hearing a lot of stuf about him for quite a while. Hopefully he'll sign with us, and we will continue to 1,2 punch we're used to at running back.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KunzelTiger 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 If we don't get CK then I hope UGA does...Either we get him and turn him into a Top 5 pick or UGA gets him and wastes his talent...It would be scary to see him go somewhere where the coach would know how to use him that isn't Auburn...

sogaaufan 27 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Caleb came to AU last weekend to the camp. My brother worked the camp and said that this guy is unreal. He is the total package, speed, power, hands, blocking, attitude, the whole deal. He is VERY high on AU and has been for a long time. Brad Lester is one of his best friends. AU and UGA are still leading for him, but he seems really impressed with the way AU uses their backs. The fact that Eddie Gran has coached so many big time NFL backs doesn't hurt either. Word is he already has a locker picked out next to Brad. Let's hope it comes through. I didn't see the link until I had posted about the camp.

WAR EAGLE!!! 0 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I have seen the Rivals video on this kid...he looks like an INCREDIBLE back... It looks like he has great balance and also can kick it into another gear when he gets into the open field. He will get some PT as a true freshman...a la the Cadillac...

SouthLink02 8 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Either we get him and turn him into a Top 5 pick or UGA gets him and wastes his talent... If by waste you mean excel it while winning SEC Titles then yes, I am sure UGA will do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KunzelTiger 0 Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 "Some interesting tidbits about running backs who were recruited and/or coached by Richt and Tuberville: Richt has had only 1 running back make the All-SEC team: Musa Smith (recruited by Jim Donnan). Tuberville has had 4 since he's been at Auburn (Kenny Irons, Carnell Williams, Ronnie Brown, Rudi Johnson). In Richt's 12 years of being an offensive coordinator or head coach, Warrick Dunn and Musa Smith are the only 2 running backs to ever run for more than 1000 yards in his offense. Richt has recruited only 1 running back at Georgia who's been drafted: Verron Haynes, 5th round, 2002. Tuberville has coached or recruited 4 running backs that have been drafted in the 1st round in the last 8 years: Ronnie Brown 2005 Carnell Williams 2005 Deuce McAllister 2001 John Avery 1998 In 12 years, Richt's offense has produced only 1 running back that has been drafted higher than the 3rd round -- 9 years ago (Warrick Dunn, 1997). If Kenny Irons is drafted in the first round in 2007, that will be 5 first-rounders in 9 years. That's an average of 1 first round running back every 1.8 years. Only 10 schools have had more than 5 running backs drafted in the first round in their entire history. With 5 first round running backs, Tuberville would have more than schools such as: Florida State 4 Texas 4 Alabama 3 Tennessee 2 (Interesting note: Mississippi has had only 2 running backs ever drafted in the 1st round: both were recruited by Tuberville)" Thats what I ment by wasted....Winning championships does not mean tapping potential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
