Well, the fact that we had an NC 2 years ago helps. And the fact that UT has been in a down period for a while now hurts y'all.

And once you guys return to glory, y'all will likely start killing it in recruiting again.

2 years ago? That really makes you guys look good alright.

When Lawson visited Tn did he bring all of those people that he took to Barn ? Seems like I read he took a lot of people with him ?

This is recruiting, take everything with a grain of salt till u have two CONFIRMED sources. Larry is legit, but so far we only have Tux saying there was an email. Wait for more confirmation before acting like this is gospel.

Easy. AE is one of the better rival posters. He seems to be a sensible poster that comes on here and just talks football. Auburn can sell a 2 year old NC better than we can a 14 year old one. That being said, I like our staff and think CBJ has done a great job with the limited time he's had. I'm for one looking forward to what he can do with an entire offseason.

Carl Lawson>Malik Brown>nobody at all.

Point being, Lawson is a better prospect than Brown, but Brown is no slouch. We MUST...MUST land Brown.

No Lawson but landing Brown will not be the end of the world by any means. No Lawson or Brown...I don't even want to talk about that scenario.

It truly amazes me how Auburn attracts so much talent every year and still can't have a winning season. Not to mention all the issues that's happened over there recently. I know it's Carl's decision but it would be best for him to come to Tennessee where we have the best tradition and the best loyal fans in college football history. He could easily become one of the all time greats with Peyton Manning, Eric Berry, Arian Foster, Bryce Brown, and so many more. Auburn will never be on Tennessee's level in any circumstance.

LWS said that Lawson reaffirmed his commitment to Auburn before he and his father left Auburn today.

This may be true but the Lawsons have been adament about not needing a media circus around their recruitment. I would expect to hear somthing from our side very shortly concerning UT's notification of the renewed commitment. The Lawsons stated that they would simply call the coaches with their descision and do it prior to NSD so as to not leave any school in a bind. The longer it takes for this info to leak out of Knoxville, the better chance we have of it not being true.

Thanks pal. :toast:

I only bring up the NC because multiple recruits have come out and said that AU's staff tries to sell that to them. I don't necessarily think that it is the best recruiting tactic, but I do know that AU coaches use it.

Losing a kid that has been committed to Auburn for almost a year and a 3 star player that nobody had even heard of 3 weeks ago would not be the end of the world.

Gus was OC and 80% of the reason they won it that yr coaching wise. I see why he brings it up....he can also sell what happened this yr was because he was gone.

The alleged "reaffirmation" could be iron clad, or it could be a polite way of saying goodbye -- "yeah, I'm still with you, but I'm going home and think about it". We weren't there, so until we get the call one way or the other, it's not over. But I have to say, I'm proud to be a VFL with the way the board is reacting to the news!

You'd think with all that talent that kid had, he could at least done something good here. Guess I was wrong.

Bryce Brown was a true freshman in his one season here and played with a significant hip injury but he was still the 2nd best RB on the team and averaged 4.8 ypc. Obviously that doesn't make him one of the all time greats but had he stayed here and had he stayed motivated he could have been.
