Best recruiter on AU campus: Nell Fortner

Tuesday, January 06, 2009

Auburn's new football staff is supposedly a fine collection of recruiters. If they can recruit like the best recruiter on campus, they'll be just fine.

Women's basketball coach Nell Fortner has put together a powerhouse team that has a 15-0 record heading into Southeastern Conference play against South Carolina on Thursday. The women have the only perfect record among any SEC basketball team, men or women. They are on course for an easy return to the NCAA Tournament. But how good is Auburn, really?

Maybe we'll know when it entertains Tennessee on Jan.25.

The world will be obsessed with football recruiting then. That's kind of too bad. If you have an opinion about this Hot Corner or any sports subject, send your comments to Sound Off.

Coach Fortner is doing a fantastic job & she has a great group of assistant coaches as well. I caught most of an interview with Coach Whitfield about a month ago. She is the lead recruiter and I was very impressed with her. Seemed like a really good person & coach. WAR EAGLE Ladies!

Fortner is a fantastic coach. We'll find out alot after Tennessee, but I think we'll be in the tourney for sure. This is a solid team and right now, the best basketball team we have. Let's go Lady Tigers!

WDE!
