In terms of national perception, I have a hard time saying we "lost" any given recruit to schools like Auburn, Oregon, Washington, Oklahoma, etc.

Remember, recruiting is not an input-output system. You can do everything right in a kid's recruitment and he still may just prefer another school. Or may have family concerns we dont know about. And so on.

We need to win at a high level, and put kids in the NFL. If we do that and aren't recruiting well, then I will worry.

This one certainly hurts but it appears Auburn made a better pitch for immediate playing time.

One of the top big boy football programs in the country. It hurts to lose him for sure, but he's going to a top shelf program, so good luck to the young man.

"Auburn has lean athletic tackles who somehow get to the next level". Anyway, it's still non binding. Who knows? Visit that swamp in August kid.

....at the 6’5” German QB that everyone is raving about? Apparently, his hands are larger than Andre the Giant’s were RIP. Something tells me that Chip and his staff are very confident in the quality of the recruits they are landing. Any super recruits signing up to any program are just one unfortunate injury away from the scrap heap. Sad ☹️ but true.
