I'm new to tidefans and am not as informed as some of the recruiting gurus here. So did we win the recruiting battle on the home front, or did the barn take the state this year.

I'd say it is pretty much even. According to Rivals, 4 of the top ten players in the state went to Bama, 4 to Auburn. I would, however, give us the slight edge as we did get 3 of the top 5. Auburn only got 1

I would say even at least.b/c you would have to question the B'ham news listing J Cooper in the top 12,and leaving R McCain a top 50 national prospect off. IMO,JC is a solid prospect.but hardly a top 20 on the state and certainly not better than W V out of Mt Brook.Yes, the Barners are sick and beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Of those listed Alabama took 11 of the 18 for the two schools. This has to have the Auburn staff knowing that next year (Kirk Hebstriet ESPN Said) when Alabama gets rolling they control that state. Bingo that was a goodie. It appears it started this recruiting cycle.

Some recruiting analysts and Auburn fans are saying this is CTTs best recruiting class ever.

Despite that belief, Alabama whips them in state and ties them nationally with three Rivals 100 players.

Alabama
35 Rolando McClain
56 Kerry Murphy
100 Brandon Gibson

Auburn
30 Enrique Davis
61 Lee Ziemba
86 Michael McNeil

Poor Barners. Win 5 in a row against your rival, and you still can't out recruit them.

Thanks everyone. I was getting a little worried after all the grief the aubie fans have been giving me at school. But, now I see that all is right in the world .

We thumped them squarely on the forehead.

[rolltide8755]

Imagine all of the recruits we will get when we start winning again? The poor Aubies won't stand a chance!
