Jackson Arnold visiting

Got a WR from Michigan State and Oklahoma

Got a DL from NcState and Miami. Got a pass rush specialist from Northern Illinois.

Picked up a corner and a good coverage safety.

A LB from Tennessee is leaning our way.

Got some strong visitors coming in the next few days. Hopefully the tide is turning. Still a lot of work to be done.

No place for that kind of positivity and praise around here, but yes - I agree.

We have to close. It comes down to that. We're on some really REALLY good prospects, but we gotta close. We also need to start hitting the DL portal. That's the one area we're lacking at right now. We've been really good at every other position. And now that the market has kind of been set on DL, it's time to get rolling.

It's been a rough 2 years. And we may not close well. So now might be the only time to be positive. Seriously though, I'm impressed with the aggressiveness our staff is showing. They are working hard and we are getting activity.

It?s shaping up to be a pretty good portal haul. Hopefully we have several surprises in the upcoming days. Close, close, close?..ABC!

We need 2-3 DT's like we need air.

It all sounds good, but we need Dlinemen in the worst way and Olinemen. Please let us be at least competitive next year.

If and when this thing gets turned around, Charlie Winfield is going to deserve a TON of credit.

Charlie is a great dude and him taking the reigns has saved us in alot of ways. Butttttttt- we have a coaching staff and a football GM. They are very involved in all this- especially the GM on the decisions made

The GM seems to be competent.

The GM seems to be competent.

He worked for Alabama and Ohio State. Neither program has a history of hiring incompetent people.

Welp. It felt good to be optimistic for a few hours. Back to normal

Yep.

Hadad was on the radio taking a victory lap about Arnold visiting. Saying he knew it all along and that he would most likely be committed to us by Monday. I should have known the second he visited Auburn, it was over.
