smuphy72wde 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 2012 Running backs T.J. Yeldon 6’2 205lbs Daphne, Alabama T.J. holds offers from Auburn, Alabama, FSU, Tennessee, and UAB. Along with T.J.’s great size he also boast great speed and athleticism with his 4.43 forty and 39 inch vertical. Highlights: Keith Marshall (NC) 5'11" 170 pounds / Millbrook HS (Raleigh) Highlight film is Highlights Offers from : Auburn, Alabama. North Carolina, Florida, FSU, and basically everyone else in the nation. Keith is the best RB in the nation in an absolutely stacked RB class. Daniel Taylor 5’7 165 Lutcher, Louisiana Daniel Holds offers from Auburn, SMU and Tennessee. Taylor is a small Scat back that has legitimate division 1 speed and great vision. Taylor is teammates with current LSU commit Jarvis Landry which will make it even harder to pull him out of Louisiana. Matt Jones 6’2 210 Seffner, Florida Holds offers from Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Florida State, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Notre Dame. As you can see Jones holds offers from most of every school in the SEC, but favors Georgia at this point in the process. Jones is a true north-south runner and doesn’t shy away from contact. Jones also catches the ball well out of the backfield and has the best vision I have seen out of the 2012 backs. Highlights: Russell Hansbrough 5'8 175 lbs / Arlington,Texas Highlight Film: Russell has camped with Auburn twice and seems to have a great deal of interest. His head coach has a really good relationship with Coach Luper. JUst did the kids I think we have a legit shot at right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holland's Fro 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Dont know about the others, but Yeldon is the real deal. Ive played against him twice in football and twice in basketball. He is an amazing athlete, best athlete i've ever played against. His recruitment will explode after his junior season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_Hatch 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Isn't Barry Sanders Jr apart of this class as well? Yes, and he already has a relationship with Coaches Luper and Trooper from their tima at OSU. He hasn't been offered by us yet though, but that could change. It'll be tough to get him out of the Midwest though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be tough to get him out of the Midwest though. Yes I know he will be a long shot to pull away from the Midwest(OSU in particular) but I say we at least have to try. There is already a communication line in place and it won't hurt to see if they can get his attention on AU. This kid is one of the best coming out and we have to go after the best. I see the list was just updated and he was added to the list. I'm surprised that OSU hasn't offered already. I would've though that would be his first offer.

Defense(clap clap) 4 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Whatever happened to that kid from Texas that was apparently a big AU fan? I think he set the state record for rushing yards last year as a soph. I can't remember his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coastal Tiger 84 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Johnathan Gray had 320 yards and 8 TD's in state championship game yesterday. His stat line for his junior season is off the charts: 351 att, 3223 yards, 9.2 avg, 59 TD's as a junior Hope our coaches are on him for next year. http://photographyblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2010/12/big-day-rushing-for-aledos-gra.html http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Johnathan-Gray-103880 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmoney123 0 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 johnathon gray is a under the radar type guy until now I have watched him closely and can tell you he is the real deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastal Tiger 84 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Probably going to be tough to pull him away from Texas Tech. His dad is the former Texas Tech great James Gray. I'd imagine he would fit well in CTT's style of offense. He does mention in the article below about interest in other programs (OK and UT), so maybe he doesn't have an attachment to the Red Raiders. He's definitely one to watch out for in 2012. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/recruiting/football/news/story?id=4577574 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXaubie 567 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Yes, Trey Williams is who the one that talked about us early. He recently went to an A&M game and was blown away by the crowd. I will give him that much that in the state of Texas an A&M game is as close as you will find to SEC football game as far as fans go. That being said it does not compare. Get this kid on the plans and look out. johnathon gray is a under the radar type guy until now I have watched him closely and can tell you he is the real deal Agreed. The one thing that is hard to assess is his off. line. I've watched him several times since he was a soph. and his line is amazing. I am not trying to take anything away from Jonathan, but he is 30 yards down field before he gets touched most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGGR82 4 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I say Yeldon and either Gray or Marshall....or Yeldon and Sanders Jr if we can get him. Luper did play with his dad at OK State, maybe he could work that relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luper did play with his dad at OK State, maybe he could work that relationship. Sanders already has a Top 4 cuz I think he wants an early announcement, and we're not on it. It's Bama, OkSt, FSU, and UCLA. I think he's going to Bama or Oklahoma St Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGGR82 4 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Well if that is the case then I say he should go to OK State and set records there. But maybe I'm a little biased, who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
