apparently Auburn has made this a lot closer than we all thought

That would be a big disappointment.

What has been said?

 

[volfaninpa]

If it's coming from AU boards, we got to take it with a grain of salt. They think they will get everyone.

Of course they did.

Wonder if the report of Tank going in the portal helped them out. Seems odd that with all the negative vibes that he would lean that way, but I have learned to not use logic in this area.

This is a very key win for us on the recruiting trail I think. Losing Hayden to OSU and James to GA will seem bigger if we don't add him to Sampson in our RB class. I already fear a smaller ESD class will bring out the not so faithful rants. I am kind of guessing 20 to 22 is the target number, saving more for the transfer pool that I expect to explode after the bowls. Don't know how many of our current and new portal guys will earn us a replacement by getting a new home in a D1 school while difference makers are still on the market.

FOUR-STAR RB SET TO MAKE FINAL CHOICE

It’s still clearly a two-team race between Tennessee and Auburn for four-star running back Justin Williams of East Paulding High School in Dallas, Ga. The former West Virginia commitment returned to Tennessee over the weekend for his official visit with the Vols, making his third trip to Knoxville within the past month. Tennessee has been the 247Sports Crystal Ball favorite to land him over the past few weeks, and sources close to his recruitment believe the Vols are still in good shape as he prepares to announce his final decision Wednesday morning.

But sources said there’s just enough mystery about how much Auburn might have improved its standing with the 6-foot, 205-pound Williams down the stretch to maintain some suspense leading up to Wednesday. There are multiple reasons Tennessee still should be viewed as the team to beat. But Williams remained interested in the Tigers even before they extended an offer to him on Nov. 27, so the Vols still might be somewhat uneasy until they receive a final answer from him.

I don't fully understand the Auburn shine right now. They finished 6-6, looked ugly in some of their games, have a coach that has been looking to bolt back to the West Coast at the first opportunity that comes his way, and are losing a ton of talent to the transfer portal.

Nothing about Auburn spells "upward trajectory" right now. If I actually gambled, I'd probably but good money on Harsin being gone within the next 2 years. He doesn't fit there.

And they don’t have an offensive coordinator.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

3 visits to Knoxville in the past month.

He's gonna be a vol.

 

[BigorangeBoy]

Plus their legacy QB is in the portal

 

[jpope9]

if I was a coach here I'd be hammering to him about their coach looking to get out of auburn at any chance he can.

I don’t think we have anything at all to worry about here…. Sometimes crazy things happen but he should be a Vol!

Not that guarantees anything, but he posted 7 pics of him in the dark uniform around 8PM last night on his Instagram. P O W E R O F T H E T was the caption.

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

Then why would he want to go to the West Coast?

Has he been in that damn cabin

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Kid is jacked. That's gonna be a 225lb SEC back right there.

He's Idaho to the core, which operates very different than the rest of the west coast states (until Californians outnumber the natives in a couple years anyway).
