AU's big July Weekend Will be called Stars and Stripes Weekend
“Trooper Taylor was recently on Sports Callradio. He said Auburn fans should save their money and don’t buy fireworks because Auburn will have all the fireworks they need in July. He was hinting at something very big in recruiting in July.
Believing this to be hype, I decided to find out more. Two of my former coworkers have connections to the Auburn program. I made some calls and have confirmed for myself that the Auburn coaches do, in fact, have a huge event planned in July. It will truly be bigger than anything they (orany other school) have done so this year. Possibly ever. It’s going to shake the very foundation of Bama v. Auburn recruiting. It could very possibly serve as the turning point in what has been complete domination since Saban arrived at UA.
It is being called Stars and Stripes Weekend (recruiting stars and tiger stripes).
On one weekend in July (the weekend of the 18th), no less than twelve very heavily recruited players will announce that they are committing to Auburn. Their commitment announcements have been coordinated by the Auburn staff to occur on this particular weekend.
I say no less than twelve, because: 1)Ladarius Owens is not among those 12 and may make his decision and announce on July 4 or he may wait to the18th. 2) Several other top recruits will be present and may decide to commit along with the 12 whose commitment announcements have already been coordinated.
I have never seen anything like this. This is going to vault them into the top five in recruiting rankings and put them in the mix for tons of other players.”
Sounds like Bama should just pack it up this year  |
