I forgot about that one. That is the one I do not usually listen to. I apologize. Thanks!

Rosebowl now is saying Arnold is out. Let us see who is right. I think he is way too close to Auburn and the folks over there to be believable.

So are we tampering with William Echoles? Hell yea if so

That?s what that lead 247 dude has been saying.

Can the 5 star FSU qb move? More or less mobile than Shapen?

Yea. He was right that Charlie is calling people trying to raise more money. It will not come at a discount anymore.

Are we better off with the FSU five star? His portal rating is higher fwiw

Losing Arnold after losing craver and Coleman would be pretty devastating.

I will say this, if this thing turns and I am wrong, Lebby will probably have lost the fan base for his tenure. I mean you lose Coleman, Craver, and Van Buren but that was fine because you were getting Arnold and he was bringing WRs. The FSU guy will not be bringing WRs with him. So if you lose Arnold, which I have said I will go down with the ship that we ultimately end up with him, no one will have any faith Lebby can bring talent here

Same song different verse.

I guess I don't believe anything anymore regarding us getting players. There is literally nothing positive for us in this regard.

I'm done falling for this stuff anymore. We've always got it set up perfect for someone to come in then all of a sudden we don't.

Hard to believe much positive anymore. Him taking a visit to Auburn was never good for us in any capacity.

Basically if a kid isn't from Mississippi and has sec options, move on to someone else. We just aren't an attractive option anymore

So was there an agreed upon number and now that number has changed?

Arnold will suck at Auburn if he goes there. He needs Lebby. But money talks

How more money does fans need to give? Jesus Christ and without much in return.

Tentative number. Auburn has raised it significantly. I got faith in Lebby though to figure it out.

Well is Arnold still visiting tomorrow? If so, we are not out yet.

2 mil?

Without Arnold, Lebby gets my vote of no confidence.

If they've offered a significantly more, i doubt that visit happens without a raise in the offer

It has already been raised and Charlie is on the phone raising more.

I doubt Auburn will pay 2 million for him.

I wouldn’t, but I don’t think it matters regardless. I like Lebby and have laid of the criticism. But if you can’t land the big fish every now and then…not much matters. Maybe Arnold’s parents pull through and tell them Hugh is a 17er and not to go there but damn.

They have offered pretty close to that. We are over 7 figures now with ours.

So let's say we come up with matching funds, we have less for other guys. This just seems like a losing proposition either way

No this is additional funds to what we had allocated for Jackson.

If I were lebby making 4.5 million, my second cousins from Plano, Texas would be donating 500k tonight to seal the deal.

I can neither confirm nor deny that Art Briles may be donating for this cause.

Now you're catching my drift.

Hell give me Kromenhoek

Tenn
At aTm
At Florida
Texas
At ark
Georgia
At Missouri
OM

Next season is brutal...

Unpopular opinion - I would let Arnold walk if the price has went up considerably. I would use our money to upgrade the LOS (both sides) with guys that have 2 years of eligibility. Hope we can keep shapen upright and hope KT is ready in 2026.

Auburn is just 17ing things up by raising the price because they can. Forcing us to pay up more for one spot and being less able to pay more at other positions. 17ing Freezus what a shitty excuse for a human being.

We need to match and exceed what they offer. **** it. I don't think they will counter. Certainly willing to call their bluff and at least run up the tab on their end.

God I love this drama! Makes me feel alive.
