'14 JUCO DT Davonte Lambert (Auburn Commit 12/18/13)

Otha Peters '13.

Screw 'em both.

This is the part of recruiting I loathe: "I'm committed. I'm committed. I'm committed. I'm committed."

Come signing day: "I've signed with [insert other team]"

Sigh...

Got to give Bruin at least a little credit for calling this. Everybody was on him about it and he was right all along. Keep in mind these things always go Auburn's way. I don't know if they gave him money or not but it sure seems fishy that when they go after a recruit they steal him at the last minute. I can't help to believe money is involved.

Mr. Lambert: If you ain't a Vol you ain't nobody! Get that Vol stuff off your Twitter.

No offense to Bruin, but he wasn't right about anything. He was going back and forth like all the so called experts from the recruiting services. If anything, it only proves no one knows squat.

Big set back for Butch. This is the kind of player that can make an immediate impact. But oh well. When you look at the results of 2013, you have one team in the national title game, and you have the other at 5-7 and no bowl. Bottom line is that recruiting is about signing classes, not catchy slogans. You can see what the word committment means to these kids. Not much. So, until Feb. 5, I wouldn't get too excited.

That doesn't mean Vol fans need to make this guy feel good about his decision. Good for him, can't blame him. It's over, move on.
 
Butch does a great job of recruiting most of the positions, but he has to improve his JUCO recruiting especially at the DT position. We lost some JUCO DTs because he dropped the GA last year.
 
Another example of why I hope the coaches DO have a no visit policy or at least REALLY pushes for commitments not to take visits after they commit. "He is just having fun" turns out to be bad news for UT more often than not. IMO if the kid trips after committing, I'm already on the phone with his replacement. Hopefully the coaches are ready to fill this spot quickly.
 
recruits get it:

Andrew Butcher ‏@ButcherAndrew1 2m
Once again don't hate on someone for going to school where they want to. It's their future.
 
Very disappointing, and all I can figure is that something drastic happened over the course of 2 days. The people that told me he was solid are probably a lot more devastated than we are though. This sux!

Or he just lied his butt off to a bunch of people....I don't like to go the sour grapes route but there is no need for well wishes for this punk either. He is a flat out liar.

When a recruitment gets weird you know shady work is going on. Auburn loves having kids lie to opposing schools. I don't get the point in all that
