Recruiting updates

I met Darren Bates the day after A-Day in Ander's Bookstore. Really nice guy. Well put together and extremely humble. I talked with him for a while and he said that his buddy from Olive Branch, Damien Robinsonhttp://www.auburn.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=80818 is nearly a lock for us and would eventually commit.

I also met Nosa Eguae on the field after the game. Great guy.

I hope you are correct grfsg. We have an immediate need for Robinson and he would most likely see playing time his first year on the Plains. I don't know if many people realize it but Damien Robinson would be a huge get for us.

I've been hearing we could get 3 or 4 more commitments by the time we kick it off with Lousisana Tech.

Wow!  That is great news to hear something like that straight from Bates!  It would be huge to get those two big lineman from Olive Branch.

We already got one of 'em

I get so pumped up when ever I think we have a great shot of landing handful of 5 star recruits.

Ha!  Yeah, I meant it would be great to get both instead of just one.  They could be great future bookends for us!

Who is the JUCO OL from Cali that we offered? Anyone have any details on this?

I'm trying to find out who he is too. But no luck so far.
