courted by the heavy weights and fierce recruiting battles go on.. the top notch programs get players from all over that only have loyalty to themselves and not the school... they are talented and their performance makes the programs win..
if you think we can get to the next level by having only players that bleed maroon and white, you've lost your mind...
as far as newton goes, it appears from the AU boards it is a done deal and he's going to auburn... and yes, even though it shoudn't, it makes me sick... anyone who thinks this isn't a blow has ALSO lost their mind.,,,
not just because we lost out on a big time QB recruit, but the way we lost out on it and who we lost out on it too.... croom had newton interested in us out of high school... then the guy who recruited him and worked with him at UF courts him as head coach at a school he had considered early on... he comes in and rings the cowbell at one of the best games ever at Scott Field and AU comes in as johnny come lately and pulls this ****...
it is sickening... I feel I've been punched in the stomach.... get ready Tyler...we need you to be ready...
