Would still love to have Arnold and if he’s in Maroon and white I’ll support him no matter what.Quote:

True. Unfortunately nobody is worth what they end up getting. Sucks.Quote:

Yeah, for someone recruited by Lebby and supposedly WANTS to be in his system and coached by him this is just a really bad look.Quote:

People supposedly can't buy eggs, but we can raise $12-$13 million a year for a college football team. It just means more I guess?Quote:

Don't stop sharing your info. You've kept the discussion and board going. No one can control the thoughts of these kids. They all think they're worth it and better than what others think.Quote:

That is easier anyways than draining my phone battery 3 times a day talking to people about all this crap. I will leave it to the people who are paid 40K to report it.Quote:

His info is good. But unless you are in the room with the coaches and players and have first hand knowledge to share, which no one does, then there will always be room for errors. I have literally received 180 degree conflicting reports on a recruit at the same time. Both were right when they sent the message because the recruiting turned in less than 5 minutes. It's more volatile than the stock market.Quote:

Per his Twitter/X: Trevion Barnes has now completed his visit.
Sources: His Twitter/X
Nevaeh Sanders has committed.

In all seriousness, this guy is a solid pickup. He'll be an edge rush specialist for us. I doubt he'll be an every down guy but in obvious passing situations he'll be on the field. Really good bend off the edge and has finesse moves to get by a tackle
Of edge players with at least 50 pass rush attempts on the year, Sanders had the 9th highest PRP rating by PFF.Quote:

If something was true one night and not true the next, that isn?t bad info. We don?t live in a static universe. The kid is 20. Sometimes things change.Quote:

Per the Auburn 247 board (Auburn Underground), since we need to source everything now, Maalik Murphy has cancelled his other visits. It sounds like he knows where he wants to go.
Now how that affects Jackson Arnold, it would be easy to say that, "Oh Auburn has their QB so they're done with Arnold". I highly doubt that to be the case. Knowing what I know about the portal, they will put even more pressure on Arnold to commit while he is there. They will sell it as he needs to commit so he doesn't lose his spot in their class.
It sounds like their building prioritizes Murphy a bit higher than Arnold. Which bodes well for us. Not out of the woods by a longshot yet though. Also, if Arnold were to end up at Auburn, do not be surprised to see us kick the tires on Maalik Murphy.
Malik Murphy in this offense would be similar to Joe Milton in this offense at Tennessee. OK with some flashes, but nothing consistent due to accuracy issues.Quote:

Here's my suspicion. Auburn is in on a pass rusher we have offered and have tried to get to campus. Clev Lubin.
I think they have effectively driven the price up on Arnold to ensure they can get Lubin.
Lebby should be offering every QB he likes and thinks could upgrade the position. Offer all the AU QBs that freeze wants that we would actually want. Hit back some. Can’t give them or the QBs all the leverage.
Well if we raised money on the side last night for JA, we should still be able to offer Lubin, right?Quote:

Also wish we'd reach out to this one from TX St: https://www.on3.com/db/ben-bell-9612/
Doesn't seem like too many people are on him but on3 is pretty high on him. PFF graded him earlier in the year very high.
