OT Cyrus Kouandjio Updates

[mulletover]

I can hear the AU staff right now:

"At Bama you'll be developed in practice. At AU you'll be developed on the field and ride the pine only when the defense is on the field. We lost our entire OL.....yadda yadda"

I hate that AU gets his LAST visit. There's no telling what madness those guys will feed him. I'm sure come Monday CNS will have his GPS set for Maryland.

auburn is very good at the "youre not good enough to play at bama" line. they love it. in fact they make sure they tell all our recruits, even ones they have no interest in....

I guess we could reply that Auburn is essentially saying, "Hey, we're going to suck soooo bad you can start!"

 

[RTR Lady]

Rodney ORR said last night on TITV that if Auburn signs all the players they are saying on the internet that they will sign that it will be over 70.

I think they are a pathetic bunch that depend on CNS's evaluations of players and when they find out he is interested then they are interested.

 

[Lou_Holtz]

Any highly-rated player who signs with AU this year will be sorry he did so. JMO...

I don’t know.
I person can do buy a lot of stuff when a school gives you $180,000.

They just received a verbal from Tre Mason today and should get one from D Sigler tommorow along with maybe B Fulse. Again decent players ut players they have been after since last spring. Sorry their run really has helped much.

Hahahahahahaha

*wipes away tears*

Yah, their 'run' is helping...

These are guys that Bama wouldn't even accept commitments from outside of Fulse, and neither would the majority of top programs honestly. Very underwhelming this close to NSD, IMO. They have always recruited in the top 15 or 20. No real shocker that they are doing well after a national title.

according to espn rumors, in a scout.com article cyrus said of the visit to iowa, "I can't explain the feeling in words. It just felt good. It felt like home."

I hope Cyrus has a strong pair of Kidneys should he go to Iowa..

Well that sounds awful for our chances...

Yup..Doesn't sound too good..But I rather him go there instead of auburn..Should he not choose Bama..

 

[runtheoption22]

Haven't seen that article or heard that news, but I've always felt Iowa was our strongest competition.

I've always hoped having his brother at Bama would lock Cyrus in at Bama..I'm getting the sense it's working against us..Because he doesn't wanna be in his brothers spotlight..He wants to blaze his own trail..I can respect that..Just don't do it at auburn..

 

[bamahippie]

They can each blaze a trail at Bama together, on oppsite sides of o-line.

Also, I guess Cyrus missed the mass exodus of Iowa players to the University's ER...

i dont see that as a problem, he has said he'd like to go to school with his brother, but that it isn't important. its ineresting how everyone this board went from "complete bama lock" to "super panic lockdown Holy crap hes going to auburn!" mode.

lol pretty much! It's always funny but it's just another year in BAMA recruiting. Again, I do hope the young man decides to attend the University of Alabama.

 

[bamafaninOhiO]

Of the recruits left on the board, THIS is the one that might make me sick over if we lose him.

I've pictured him on the left side of the offensive line for three straight years...I cant start thinking he wont be there....

I need some positive vibes...

 

[MOAN]

As competitive as brothers are I just can't see Cyrus allowing his brother to have a NC ring and him not.

I'm not. I still believe his heart lies with playing with his brother again and we know where that is. I think Cyrus is enjoying the recruiting to it's utmost potential. That is all.

Yeah, really

I've never really bought that Cyrus was a lock because he's been so measured in his words, and he just seems like a guy who kind of marches to his own beat.

That said, though, it definitely would be a punch in the gut if he didn't come to Bama.
