Yes, I realize fully I'll get flamed for this, and I sincerely mean no disrespect to your forum, but I browse through these posts and I'm amazed at how similar it seems to the way my Auburn board was back when Saban first got hired. I saw one post about all the talent Bama has put in the NFL vs. the talent Auburn has (which is absolutely true), bringing up Sammie Coates being the last AU receiver to get drafted... but isn't that kinda how Bama was before Julio Jones arrived? Your last receiver drafted before him was...Deuce Palmer, who played defense as well? (I readily admit, I might be missing someone, but not of note.)
Bama tried to sell Perry on being the next Julio. Auburn sold him on making his own legacy and breaking all the receiving records on the Plains. It's not like our new coach hasn't put guys in the League before, even if the program really hasn't for a while.
This will be the second 5 star recruit that Freeze and company has flipped this week. We got a top 10 QB that Dabo at Clemson wanted badly. Like it or not, boys and girls, but this is just the start. Bama is at a higher place as a program than Auburn was when Saban was hired, but you guys are acting exactly the same way we did back then.
And don't forget the troubles Saban has already had with Freeze back when he was in Oxford. He's got more resources now. I won't go so far as to say that Auburn is back just yet, but when rival fans are saying the things about us that we've been saying about them for decades, that tells me something good is going on.
Y'all have a great season, and we'll see ya in Auburn in November!
