article from slobinsky about the state of auburn recruiting,as they are ranked #3 by espn.com(due to quantity, not quality),
Quote:
How to explain Auburn, which traditionally has subscribed to the recruiting theory that big dogs walk late, piling up commitments the way blue-tick hounds pile up fleas?
Is Tommy Tuberville rounding up a massive litter of Taco Bell dogs because he has little shot at the pit bulls once Nick Saban throws them a bone?
Or is the Auburn coach trying to beat the rush so he can go duck hunting in Arkansas after giving Alabama another finger in November?
The Auburn spin is that all these early commitments are not - no way, no how - a reaction to Alabama's banner 2008 recruiting class. Don't believe it.
