Speaking of Auburn coaches, after watching Roof call a hell of a game against Northwestern yesterday what was the reasoning behind him leaving Auburn in the first place? I know they didn't have a great year defensively last year and am assuming he was forced out, but they were pretty young last year. Maybe I'm missing something from the outside, but he seems to be doing a pretty good job at PSU.

Wilcox looks good OUTSIDE the SEC.

He would be a casualty of wholsale housecleaning. He was kind of lost last year, but seems to be doing okay with coaching and recruiting now. This year defensive tackles were lacking in first couple of games, but have since improved.

IMO the big question about Lawson is how solid Foster and Liner are with AU. Among current recruits, they are the tightest. Secondly is how pissed at AU he becomes if/when Pelton is released.

Lol if foster decides to go Some where else he will look like an idiot with that big tat of auburn on his arm? But if he does decide to leave , and comes to Tennessee I'm sure we can take up a collection on here and get a big orange T over it :)

One of the lowest ranked defenses while he was here. He for sure had his moments during 2010 with Fairley, particularly in key SEC West games and BCS championship game. The irony of how well he is doing at PSU under the circumstances has been noted by AU fans.

So are we in his ear any?

I wondered why Vols weren't in on him. He is from Lawrenceville, Ga so not too far away. Maybe because he committed to AU last year during his junior year. I thought after Roof was let go that you guys would be on him.

How much of a threat is Michigan for Green?

They are a considerate threat but Farrell pointed out that VT is the dark horse in this race. They are the instate school and they have good and recent tradition of putting backs in the league. In the end, his relationship with CJG is the ultimate factor.

For some reason, Green likes Ole Miss. He visited once this summer and is returning for official in November. I think they are a dark horse but Freeze appears to be doing well bringing Ole Miss back on the field and in recruiting.

They are playing like they really believe in themselves...they are just over matched in the talent category.

If he nails it in recruiting, they could be pretty tough in the future. We need to establish ourselves in Memphis in a big way to shut down that pipeline for him.

I'm currently very happy with Carr, and I wouldn't shake a stick at Gray either.
