Commits incoming?**

Know it was a big weekend.

This next class is getting more and more expensive as the season advances and the ROI on it keeps getting less and less. After all is said and done, our class will be more expensive per star than OM’s last class ever was.

Is Craver in the portal ? Saw a rumor he’s been talking to Bama

 

[57stratdawg]

I’m sure he’s going to get interest. Coleman too. Both of those guys are SEC caliber.

Coleman might jump to the NFL.

 

[Rezdog]

More juco's I'm sure

 

[57stratdawg]

Picked up a North Alabama OT. Long time Auburn commit. Hank might have told him to look around.

After the tampering rumor yesterday my money would’ve been Auburn.

Yea, what I saw said one of the Alabama schools

Idk man. Something tells me 3 star players are not nearly as expensive as 4 and 5 star players.

We just need to field a half decent team and go 6 and 6.

A transfer from Kennesaw St, flipped a 3* from Troy & picked up a 3* that Auburn dropped. Man those NIL funds are flowing. Any of these may turn out to be good players for us. But talk of us having plenty of NIL money is just bull****.

 

[Brokerdawg]

Auburn is tampering with every good player they can. Because I love OM misery I listened to McCready and Parham on the way home from Starkville last night. They mentioned the cost of keeping #4 has gone way up because of Auburn.

Lebby: Look guys, our coaches aren’t the problem. It’s talent

Everybody: So your staff is going to bring in some talent, right?

Lebby: <blank stare>

I don’t understand that. We obviously have money issues and relative to sec peers we are nil poor. Admit this and form a strategy to work around that. We have people who deny there is any money issue. Why ?

 

[civildawg88]

Isn't Kennesaw state like 1-10 or something? Jesus this staff sucks

We are not in bottom 25% in Sec for NIL money. We are somewhere in the 8 to 11 range. It’s about evaluating talent that are 3 and 4 star players.
now in saying this, I have no clue about our staff being good recruiters. i gave them a pass for last recruiting year, this class will let the story of “get r done or be done”.

I don’t believe this. list the 8 sec teams we have more money than. The five star Georgia LBer Arkansas signed probably cost as much as most of our portal class.

The problem is there isn’t just 1 NIL number. Where we rank in cash on-hand can be different than where we rank in 2024 NIL spent compared to 2025 NIL spent, compared to ‘24 / ‘25 funds collected, etc.

I agree with you though. I have a hard time believing we’re anywhere other than #11 - #14 in SEC football commitment though.

You wouldn’t believe anything remotely positive about this program. You and Goat make it a point to be negative when you have zero sources or knowledge about recruiting

#4 as in JJ Harrell or DeAgo Brunfield?

 

[PBRME]

Our problem with NIL is not only having enough to compete, but also having to spend more to get playerrd that will go to other SEC for a winning school a lot cheaper.

 

[LimaoCabeca]

A serious question is would any of *you* want to play for this team? I’d be looking for about any other power offer

 

[Brokerdawg]

#4 for OM. Undersized speedster. Can’t remember his name.

I would. The problem is, the staff might actually offer.

 

[Howiefeltersnstch]

I don't think we are having a NIL issue. I doubt the guys we are signing are asking for much. When you steal a guy from Troy or JUCO surely our folks ain't paying much. Sadly I'm not very optimistic about how much of an impact they will make. Edited to add: I highly doubt we are gonna be able to keep the handful of good players we currently have. It's one thing to play like sh*t but it's a different situation we you bragged about showtime to your recruits and then this is what you actually do

Guarantee we don’t have much nil money compared to the rest of the sec.
