well well well Rueben Randle will visit Auburn!

[AUdrew1 3]

Rueben Randle will vist AU after all!

Wonder if Bama and Lsu will pull his offer like they said?

[Mikey 16,781]

Poor Doug Segrest of the Bammerham News! First his plan of mis-information to get Moseley mad at Auburn didn't work, now he's got to eat crow on his "Randle has no interest in Auburn" story.

He better be careful. If he can't find dirt that sticks on Auburn, they'll fire him and find a writer that can think up something.

[WAR-GIGEM-EAGLE 4]

it looks like we have our work cut out for us for both of those receievers. Emory Blake needs to talk to Jeff Grimes about Colorado, but it'll be hard to convince a receiver that we can get him more action than Texas Tech can. Those guys throw the ball to EVERYONE. Hopefully, he'll understand that they'll be THE ONE here at Auburn.

I wonder if they DONT pull the offer will people here admit that that previous story about both schools threatening to pull was nothing but baloney.

oh we all know it was "baloney" but i think it's a stupid tactic to use with the number 1 recruit in the nation. or should we just call it tacky tactic?

and thats pretty much the justification we used in making the point that it more than likely didn't happen, with Alabama anyways. LSU is pretty much in the drivers seat so maybe they said something. so if they threatened to pull his offer, he may listen since he knows he wants to go there. that doesn't pan out with Alabama though, as making threats usually require some sort of leverage. at this point, Alabama has no leverage to make those sort of threats. all it boiled down to is you guys got uber stoked when you first heard RR was going to visit. then when his father said that was false, you fell flat on your faces and needed a scapegoat. as usual, when something didn't go your way, it has to be because somebody cheated, paid somebody, or used a dirty tactic. it can never be because a kid simply wasn't interested enough.

heaven forbid a school take jabs at it's rival schools. We all know Auburn is the greatest thing since sliced bread and it would have to be because of some outside force that a kid would not want to be here. I wouldn't expect you to understand, you just dont get Auburn like we do. Alabama and LSU may not be cheating and probably aren't...but look at the faces of their programs. Not much you can say about the integrity of Miles and Saban.

[TitanTiger 22,262]

Or maybe he's calling their bluff. No one said they actually would pull his offer, just that they may have said or implied that they would.

Lord, get over it. We're discussing Randle coming to Auburn.

but it is not a jab when most people here say it, it is a continuing theme. there is a big difference between a short one line zinger, but then you have people on this board that go so in depth with it they compare CNS and Alabama's football program to Al Capone and his criminal enterprise. at some point it is no longer simply a jab, it is a belief. while there is nothing wrong with having an opinion, and i understand thats what a message board is all about, you do understand that anybody who publicly gives opinions is always subject to criticism. i've been to the Auburn campus and stayed there i don't know how many times. very, very nice campus and a very nice city. i'm sure the campus has only become even nicer since then. certainly a bigger and nicer place than where i live. but i promise you, i was always happy to come back to dinky Elberta, AL. i don't think i would its not that i think where i live is better, its just a matter of preference. i'm sure Auburn is alot nicer than some of the schools these kids visit, doesn't mean that its right for them though.

[runswithscissors 33]

Lord, get over it. We're discussing Randle coming to Auburn.

well, the original poster also posed a question regarding his offer status with LSU and Alabama, so i assumed that was up for discussion as well.

[TitanTiger 22,262]

Actually, you're right. I mistook who brought that up again. Carry on.

No no no...you were more than happy to keep the "mean ole Bammer threatened to pull the kids offer" thing going...as long as it was a way to further perpetuate the perception that Bama is the evil empire.

Now that we all see that it wasn't the case...you don't wanna talk about it any more.

Nice.

[TitanTiger 22,262]

I wasn't keeping anything going. I said it because I'd heard it other places besides just Auburn boards. After that, I didn't bring it up unless you guys tried to act like that was impossible.

And we don't know that it's not the case. All we know is that Randle has decided to come anyway regardless of whatever pressures people may be putting on him. As I've said before, it's not like neither of those schools have put the screws to a prospect or a commit not to take other visits. I don't know why this is just a burr under your saddle.

It's a burr because AU has the last official visit!

Why don't we all talk about what a douche you are. No conspiracy theory there, that has been proven. Why do you trouble yourself with posting on this board? Put on your houndstooth cap and got 12 shirt and go count up how deep you are rollin' at running back...

i don't see why its such a burr. i really don't think anybody is worried about him visiting AU. why would they expect anything to happen when you guys just started recruiting the kid lss than a month ago? we're not talking about some kid who has offers from UAB, USA, Marshall, and Arkansas St. we're talking about the #2 recruit in the country and the #1 WR who could go anywhere in the country he wanted. while i'm with you that its great he would visit your school, i don't really see where it would be a burr to any other program.

trust me not so much for bama but i can bet you both bama and AU are a Burr in Lsu's side over this one. The "mad hatter" wishes he and a nuke about right now.

It doesnt make sense. TR has been taking visits all season. Has been very very open about it. AJ is visiting OU. Dre went to UF this past weekend. Kendall Kelly visited Clemson. Tana Patrick visited Auburn. Moore visited Auburn.

So why would all these guys get Saban's blessing, but we decide to pull the offer of the #1 player in the country, because he decides to visit Auburn?

We aren't threatened by Clemson, Florida, Oklahoma, etc...but we are SOOOOO threatened by Auburn that we pull the offer of a kid who can go anywhere in the nation?

Again, it doesn't make sense. It's just an opportunity for you to float it out there...you KNOW it's not true, you know it's not likely. But you put it out there anyway because you CHOOSE to believe the worst 100% about Alabama, and give AU the benefit of the doubt even in the face of an obscene amount of logic that argues to the counter.

Put on your houndstooth cap and got 12 shirt and go count up how deep you are rollin' at running back...

Funny...three of those 5 are playing in the NFL right now....

maybe at one point Alabama may have been, but i really don't think so right now. we will come in a very close second place for his signature, but at this point he knows where he is going to end up and i'm pretty sure LSU knows this as well. i'm not really trying to down you for holding out hope or anything, as thats what would be expected of you being an AU fan, but i honestly think AU is a non-factor.

perhaps, but the fact that Chizik and staff are going after the kid makes me very excited regardless if he signs with us or not. Chizik is laying the ground work this year for a tough in state recruiting battle with Satan next year.

i'm not so certain of that, but i understand your optimisim. my take on it is if CTT couldn't do it in his 9th and 10th year as coach, i really don't see Chizik walking in during his first year and slapping CNS in the face on the recruiting trail or anything. i don't think the blue chippers are so much sold on Chizik, and if 09 doesn't go so well, then that isn't going to help either.
