Don't blame him??? As late as last night he was telling coach Jones he was still firmly committed?! That shows no character at all. Did any of you see Pearson's quote of 'once I give my word, that's it, I keep it.' There are so many 'younger members' on VN that don't have standards of character. I give my word, I complete my word. Don't care who you are, if you don't keep your word, you don't have character. Less and less good character youngsters growing up. A major problem for this country!!!

I agree..the issue is with him telling us how solid he was. Then we miss out on the last few weeks to find a replacement. He should have manned up and simply switched to Auburn two weeks ago when it came out!

I get so sick of losing recruiting battles with Auburn. If it's between us and AU they seem to ALWAYS pick AU. I've been to AU and I'm telling you once you get off campus there's nothing! They must offer some really good "perks"!!!!!

They always have... for years. I have always felt Auburn had an identity crisis. They cannot decide if they are Tigers, War Eagles, Plainsmen, or Probates.

Oh, sorry. If we can still work another one in, here are the ones I have seen some film on, and like:

1. Matt Elam
2. Calvin Hertelou
3. Lance McDowdell
4. Courtney Garnett (committed to Texas)
5. Michael Sawyers (committed to Candy)

And what a burr under Franklin's saddle it would be if we could poach him.

For clarification, War Eagle is a "battle cry" like us using Rocky Top or something. They never use an eagle as a mascot so it's dumb when other fanbases act like AU is confused or stupid. We're the Volunteers and our most notable mascot is a coon dog for goodness sakes.

Im not worried I kinda expected this to happen today. Its just funny how a player can be commited that long to a program and just all of a sudden flip on the day he is suppose to put it in ink. We need players who really want to be here and play hard not guys like Lambert who are not 100% to the program and bails when something else comes along.

How do you know he told CBJ he was committed as of last night? Maybe he told him a week ago. It's not like CBJ could have talked about it without a violation.

No. It's a mascot, because they bring the eagle to all home games. Period.

That, there, is an identity crisis.

Smokey, the "coon dog", does NOT represent any sort of identity crisis, as Davy Crockett (ultimate Volunteer) and other frontiersmen would have had one as "man's best friend."

AV

PS. Auburn's most accurately representative mascot would be the banker guy from Monopoly. They should just go ahead and pass out "$" helmet stickers.

Carl Lawson last year and now this guy. We need quality Defensive Linemen with motors. We need to start winning or this will continue to be the norm. Auburn is winning and people like a winner. It's that simple.

Lawson stayed committed to AU instead of flipping to us

Not the same.

Hard for any team coming off 4 losing seasons to compete with SEC Champs that are playing for a BCS Championship in 3 weeks

It already sounds like youre writing off our current DL commits without them having even played a down yet. Sounds like a great fan to me.
