logan adams 333 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 It's between Auburn and Michigan. Tennessee is behind sitting at 3rd place. I definitely think its neck and neck between us and Michigan. IMO he picks us. How in the world could you think that though? All that he has said is a heavy, heavy lean towards Michigan. Those orange and blue goggles you're wearing are fogged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im4au 44 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 My concern with recruiting running backs is their not wanting to run behind our offensive line. I didn't see much of Michigan this year, but Clowney decleating their running back made me think they may have problems too. I did a little research and found this. Our line has some growing up and lifting to do, but if he goes to Michigan he'd better strap it up tight. http://www.mlive.com/wolverines/index.ssf/2013/01/position_grades_offensive_line.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think we lead on both those factors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wareagle2244 0 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 For some reason my gut tells me Auburn has a way better chance then we think. Are coaches planning on meeting with him this week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any Auburn sites will. I think the main one keeping us in on this one is Jeremy Johnson. Those two are friends, and it's intriguing to Derrick to play in the same backfield has JJ.

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 EDW is an AU news gathering machine. He takes from Rivals and 247 and runs with it on twitter. I do not mind it but I agree that he is not an insider. And as for Green, he is not going to AU. I think most can see this by now. I hope he chooses TN.

We all know what he brings to the table, and I love him for it. He does all the message boards lurking and interview watching for me and provides concise nuggets and his own conclusions. I take it all with a grain of salt, but he is still the best recruiting twitter account I follow. Some other guys have real inside info, but they rarely if ever tweet, so would good are they doing me? And the premium guys keep the juicy info behind the pay-wall. If you want free recruiting updates on a daily basis from someone who just has a 24/7 account and obsessively follows every tidbit of info about any recruit Auburn is interested in, EDW has got the market cornered.
