wadechristopher 0 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Apparentley uat has pulled his schooly offer. I think we could use this kid at inside linebacker. He is 6'4 240 and runs a sub 4.5. Out of high school there was a chance he was coming to AU. What do yall think?

Jonesy 1 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I haven't seen anything from Devonte since he was in HS. I think our LB class is pretty set. I would hate to burn a scholly on a two year player over some of the other guys we have left on our big board. I would consider a late offer if we struck out on some of our other options.

Jonesy, I may be wrong but I think he redshirted one year, so he has 3 years left. He is big enough to give instant help.

wadechristopher 0 Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 Why was his offer pulled? I am not sure, but I think his offer was contingent on graduating early which I think he failed to do. So he would count toward this year's class now.

Like I said, haven't heard anything from him since HS. If the coaches want him then they will grab him. I just don't see it.

ellitor 34,380 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I heard his grades are bad and he couldn't get in anyway. [/quoteYou are correct. And a player enrolling in January does not necessarily count on last years class. The fill up all of last years spots and after that any remaining players enrolled in January count for this year...Ken Adams, for example, would count for this year if he had committed and started tomorrow.

wadechristopher 0 Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 I, along with everyone else here, knows that he would not be considered toward last years class. We only had five spots and they have been all taken. I am talking about this class no matter when he has to enroll.

AUSportTalk 4 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 He has an academic problem. If Tubs was here I could see him going after him but this coaching staff doesn't play that game so I doubt they will give him a time of the day.

weegleweegle 0 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 He signed with Bama last year and has spent the year in Juco....He must not be able to get in school at Bama so he sure could not get in at AU.....

We only had five spots and they have been all taken. I am talking about this class no matter when he has to enroll. Well believe it or not, the recruiting rules are so complex that many auburn fans dont know that. My dad has been die hard Auburn forever and i know for a fact that he is not not sure of the enrollment rules... Not everyone is as educated on those rules as you or I so please dont say everyone knows them cuz that would make people that read your post and dont know the enroll ment stuff feel pretty bad...and making people feel bad is not the Auburn Spirit.

wadechristopher 0 Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 I am not saying you have to know the rules. We had 5 early spots, all now taken, so now any signees would count as this year's class.
