My fingers are crossed. If he wants to play early, UofM can offer that.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

Well.... this doesn't sound good.

The AU Mod on Rivals who has been literally perfect in his predictions all year, including Mack's switch to AU, Whitaker, etc. will NOT be attending Marcus's anouncement Tues. night.

Reading between the lines...it appears Marcus will stay instate. Son of a biscuit eater.

Hope I'm wrong, but the tea leaves from the latest posts by trusted folks seem to think Marcus is leaning towards being the "savior" at USC.

The only real loser in this situation is Marcus.

Ben Tate last year alone rushed for more yards than three of Spurrier's five teams at South Carolina have, and Malzahn's four offenses have always rushed for at least 1,200 more yards than Spurrier's.

On the good side, at least he's not going to Alabama, Tennessee, or someplace who could actually use him to beat us.

I'm not saying "we didn't want him" because that'd be absurd; he's clearly a very talented running back. I just think that committing to Spurrier's South Carolina over Auburn under anyone but Terry Bowden is odd.

In brighter news for AU,

No rumor....every AU board moderator is reporting that the AU staff has a big surprise for everyone on National Signing Day.

Apparently, it's a kid who'll commit that is completely off the radar, big name, etc.

Have no idea who it is, but the last time the coaches did that, AU got DeAngelo Benton last year out of nowhwere.

It's fun to have these kinds of surprises now and not be "surprised" by landing unranked long snappers.

Just read some stuff on the Keenan Allen saga that I thought you guys might want to read.

Every player is "bought" when they don't commit to a certain school.

Unless they don't commit to Auburn. Then they actually were paid.

I definitly see the homerisms in the thread, just thought it was interesting to see what they are saying now that he seems to be Cal bound.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

Michigan tried to slowplay Knight at the last minute, they've gotten optimistic feedback about Sean Parker and Demar Dorsey, and they like both of those guys better than Knight.

I suspect it will bite them, because I think Dorsey's going to FSU.

[MassNole]

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

I'll be shocked if Dorsey doesn't go to FSU, which is why I don't think much of a fight was put up when Terrence Mitchell went to USF.

Oh well, Lattimore to the Cocks. Good luck.

Looking that way. Good luck to the kid. He'll have a heavy burden on him at USC to be the "man" so to speak. There are 99 reasons out of 100 he would do better at AU, but in state ties, etc. are a powerful thing.

On a brighter note, 4 star DT Byran Jones is expected to commit to Auburn tomorrow. Word on Lemonier is that it's 50/50 between AU and FSU.

Do not want.

Kid better shape up because his attitude is annoying and one that could get him in trouble later in life.
