Auburn definitely isn't RBU. But they have had some good RBs throughout the years. Obviously Bo Jackson, Ronnie Brown, and Carnell Williams. But there are some others that had good careers and some that are still playing at a decent level in the NFL. Rudi Johnson and Stephen Davis went to The Barn. Brandon Jacobs was at Auburn. Kenny Irons was a good RB at Auburn and Ben Tate. Pretty solid group of RBs from the last few years and then Bo is just on another level. But they still aren't RBU by any means.

I thought Tate was the guy that holds Arian Foster's water bottle?

Flowd I gave them three don't give them anything else. Make Auburn fans think. Most don't know they were the first ever school that's in the SEC to win the national championship(no they weren't in the SEC but they won one first). Most Auburn fans don't even know they're history.

You are going to have help me out here because not sure what NC you are referring to.

If you are going off the pre-AP polls LSU actually has the 1st in 1908, AU was 1913. If you are going off the AP(1936-present), which most feel is more accurate until the BCS, UT won in 1951, AU 1957. So just curious here.

A friend of Tyshon was gonna bring him up to Junior Day on March 3. So he called the AD office to let them know Tyshon was coming and they told him well he wasnt on the invite list and that his recruiter will invite him because this was an invite only junior day. Thats something you dont say to a recruit of his caliber you say hold on Ill let you talk to someone.

So what you're saying is that we can pretty much kiss Mr. Dye goodbye? Nice work in the Athletic Dept.! A bastion of competence!

And, quite frankly, if that was indeed how it all went down, I wouldn't blame Mr. Dye at all for saying "So long, suckers," to UT. Hopefully this will be repaired and in a hurry, but may be beyond fixable now.

Orange Venom, you think this was just some knucklehead underling in the Athletic Dept. that didn't know any better or someone who ought to have known to have put him through to a coach or go ahead and sign him on for Junior Day? If it was a knucklehead, Dooley himself ought to get on the phone and call Tyshon personally to invite him up for March 3.

Sucks if it did happen, but Dye needs to call his recruiter or Dooley to tell them he wants to come in for junior day. Not the AD number that anyone can get online. There are many interns, etc. who work in the football offices and do not communicate with the coaches. If one of them fielded a call from a recruit and went to a coach to tell them they need to talk on the phone with somebody, they would probably get lit into.

It was a woman receptionist so she probably didnt know but she was told he had a UT offer. And she said well the coaches will invite him because its invite only

I'm sure whoever answered the phone was following protocol. You can't expect a secretary in the AD to know who Tyshon is. The point should be why isn't he invited in the first place?

Seems reasonable to me. If it is indeed invite only and he did not have an invite, the lady who answered the phone was right. I think it's on the coaches if he did not have an invite. We may not know the whole story either. Maybe he was asked if he wanted to come and he said he could not at some point. Maybe his schedule opened up now and he was trying to get an invite. I would think if that was the case, a coach would have called him back.

I am sure the coaches know what they are doing. If they chose not to invite the kid, maybe they have a reason. We as fans never know what is going on behind closed doors. Remember the Vonn Bell crowd yelling for the coaches to do their job? "The kid is waiting by the phone to commit". It's been a couple weeks and the kid always planned on playing the recruiting game. People got all bent out of shape for nothing.

All I am saying is he is one of the top backs from a state that we traditionally recruit heavily in. We were showing interest at one point last season if I am not mistaken.
