AUman43 5 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Gaston looking at MSU and losing Petey might influence Tana Patrick to come to Auburn or Heavens looking there too since we are working hard to get Blake and Randall. I hear he (Patrick)has an excellent relationship with Muschamp at Texas and reportedly visited there. When you see unsigned talent still out there and us losing commits at the last minute, it makes one wonder if our staff is encouraged about perhaps bringing in a better player. Just a passing thought as we seem destined to play musical chairs. Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55868-just-wondering-if/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,781 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 "If we keep telling people we are full at LB then who do we have in our pocket?" Exactly! But there is so much BS flying around it's hard to know what to believe. Did our coaches really tell Shackleford and Lattimore that we were full at LB? If so, we're bound to have one of them-there Silent Commits hiding somewhere. OTOH, I don't think Patrick cares who else signs where, he probably thinks he can win a spot anywhere. So who knows?

AUman43 5 Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 With more LB "waffling" going on here at the last minute, I've decided that the absence of a designated LB coach is the problem. I don't think it's a coincidence that most of our LB commits start looking around with Willis going to Bammer and Chizik failing to hire a clear cut LB coach before signing day. It's apparently having an effect he should deal with and quickly.

Mikey 16,781 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Roof has been the linebacker coach almost everywhere he's been. I don't see that as a problem. Chizik has publicly stated that he won't fill the other two positions until after signing day, so he must not think it's a problem.

I for one am glad and happy to see Chizik recruiting rather than hunting for coaches.

He was in Montgomery for the HS Coaches Convention last night, and interview on WSFA TV 12 was interesting. He is very happy with coaching staff so far, they've all been hitting the pavement, and he doesn't want to rush hiring last two assistants. These guys have been working their tails off to bring the best talent to the Plains. I applaud their efforts.

AUman43 5 Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Chizik stated in today's Bham News that he intends to hire 2 more coaches. It stands to reason one of them will be a LB coach and the other a DB coach. Perhaps he already knows who he's going to hire and is passing this along to the LB and DB recruits. Who knows?
