I still can't see how anyone would wanna go to Auburn after the way they handled their Coaching situation
Auburn coaches have mostly been MIA at Alabama high schools since Saban arrived. For whatever reason, Tubby decided to go in a different direction instead of going head to head with Saban on a lot of players. At best, their efforts amounted to token appearances. Alabama recruits are now seeing a higher profile more visible staff from Auburn. To them the coaching situation at Auburn is better regardless of how the administration dealt with Tubby.
I heard Mack Brown do an interview once with one of the national talk show host. He pretty much said if a recruit doesn't want to commit to him then they pretty much take the pressure off. Said he doesn't like all the waffling and the hat show. He wants players that know they want to be at UT blah blah blah. If it helps us with players I say keep it up shorthorn.
is Rice's catcher Diego Seastrunk related? unusual first names, same last name, TX connection, gotta be related, eh?
Looks to me Seastrunk is definitely a silent commit to Auburn based off his comments on ESPN... Seastrunk calls Big Cat Weekend "the best ever" Highly touted ESPNU 150 Watch List running back Lache Seastrunk said at an impromptu pep really during Big Cat Weekend at Auburn, "I can't reveal all the information, but you guys will be surprised when I commit (in early January). And I think ya'll might like where I choose." "This is the best ever," Seastrunk continued. "They just welcome you in. I feel the warmth of everyone. I love the environment here and I feel at home." However, he told ESPN affiliate Web site AuburnUndercover.com he's still listening to every school that is recruiting him, "There's nothing I can really say, but every school is still in it. Every school has something great to offer. I'm not shutting the door on anyone, because that's disrespectful." Seastrunk carried 177 times for 1,541 yards (9 average) and 14 touchdowns last fall. As a sophomore, he rushed 130 times for 1,532 yards (11.8 average) and 22 scores. Hes either playing some serious head games or hes committed to Auburn. Things can change months from now but as of right now, doesn't look good for us.
Reed made some comments recently regarding the Barner visit that make it sound like LSU is still the team to beat for both himself and Lache. Nothing decisive, but definitely hinting at P&G futures. There's an article on one of the pay sites if you're a member.
