I was at almost every Auburn high home game and it was pretty obvious he was playing through some serious injuries all year. He literally limped off the field at the end of every possession. Yet, he still dominated. His only "bad" game was Carver.

He's a freak and I would be absolutely shocked if he doesn't sign with us. Wish I could say the same about Trey.

Getting both would have been ridiculous for sure, but if we can get Foster I think we'll have a great linebacking core already. Add him to McKinzy and Kris Frost and we have some massive talent at the position.

You mean this guy?


He is very good and Troop did his job well getting him and his family settled down in the AU area.  Dude is already inked though, you'd have to eff up on a monumental level to lose him after all you did to get this kid.

Kris Frost literally played like 20 snaps all year, almost all against Bama and had a great TFL and a forced fumble. The fact he didn't play all year amazes me. He's a freak.

The tattoo is really a shrine to his cousin who played here and was killed more than his commitment to Auburn. I don't think it will factor.

Same... I was so excited about getting him and then the coaches acted like he was some walk on trash bench player or something. Our LB play was horrendous and they still didn't let him play. I hope that was Chizik's doing and not Van Gorder's. If he isn't starting this year I'll have lost some faith in the new coaching staff.

Why didn't he get a tattoo of Ladarious Phillips?  He had permanently left the team and had plans to transfer.  It doesn't matter though.  He is a great player.  IDK why we are not showing much interest.  Maybe its because of his time with AU or the way he flipped.  I think he shot straight with Kirby Smart and told him not to waste his efforts recruiting him.

What's up with Dee Liner? I saw that he decommitted but he doesn't seem to have many offers according to Rivals. Was the lack of offers due to him committing early, or having personal/grade issues?

He's a hell of a talented player but a few sites dropped him because of character issues.

Our staff gave him an ultimatum of either you tell us you're 100% solid or decommit and don't look back.

So he's gone.

That sounds a little spin cycley (no offense). The article I read he said he didn't feel like he had enough time to get know the new staff so they parted ways.

Tell us about your former player  Nick Marshal.  Why did he leave UGA?

He got kicked out for being a thief from what I recall.

Seems like he's been thinking about decommitting for a few months now, his whole recruitment has been one big game just like a few other top guys.  He's bama bound.

yep thats a pretty popular belief

[The Playmaker]

Honestly I'm so tired of these recruiting games, which is why I've just now started keeping up with it.  Ready for NSD.

Bama has been working hard on him for a while, a lot say we've had him in the bag for a while...but can never tell these days with the in-state flips.

Either way, he's a solid DL talent, best to come out of the state in a while.
