My favorite part...

"I grew up an Alabama fan. Everyone in my family has been always been an Alabama fan. But I connected to everyone at Auburn."

That's why, when Coates got the offer from Auburn and committed, he decided to shut down the recruitment process.

SWEET! GREAT JOB, COACHES!  :wedance:

It is unconfirmed, but has anyone realized that rivals has his bench max posted as 300 lbs? That is an extremely impressive number for a 170 lb wide receiver.

Yes, I stated the same thing in another thread and even asked if that was correct and mayor said from all accounts that is correct.  With that speed and strength I don't care if he can't walk and chew gum at the same time.  Get him to CTT and we will have a ball player.  (I am by no means suggesting that this kid is not a good athlete, just stating that those measurables alone make him an impressive prospect.)  I think when all the dust settles this kid will be the one that we all talk about, and the fact that he grew up a bammer fan will make it even better.  :zapbama:

nowadays, high school athletes are quite strong, its actually pretty common for at least 1/4 of a HS team to bench more than twice their body weight.

Some people can do just bench. There was a guy here in Eufaula, although he was a professional bodybuilder, that could bench 420lb and the dude weighed 165lb. Benching 300lb at 175 is pretty dang good regardless. With that kind of thrust off the line can get him free of the DB's fo sho.
