Dear Mr. Kouandjio,

I hope you find a terrific fit for your personality and skills. I'm glad to be a fan of a school that clearly has potential to be that fit. I'm glad to be a fan of a school that can offer a win-win deal. There were days when my team had to ask "help us!" and I'm glad that now my team can offer at least as much back in return. I hope that in the next few years you develop always toward your full potential, as an athlete and a mind and a human being. If you decide that fit is elsewhere, I'll have some initial disappointment, but after about 30 seconds I'll get back to hoping that your choice is everything you hope it will be. If you decide that we're the fit, then I'll enjoy watching you grow at a little bit closer distance. I don't know you, and only have a small sense of who you are, but the sense I get is that you are a quality individual with multiple unique talents. You seem like a person who takes this decision seriously and thoughtfully. May you do well by yourself and well by others. Period. May you be blessed with peace and wisdom in what can be a challenging time.

That doesn't worry me, If Lee Ziemba is the best they can do for tackle development I don't see Cyrus reaching his potential in rural south Alabama. Compare that for instance to an original two star James Carpenter who is now flatbacking everyone at Senior Bowl practice. It helps to learn technique OTHER than chop blocking.

lolol so true along with that thug pugh as well.:biggrin:

Bama and New Mexico will visit Cyrus tonight at his house.

New Mexico????? Scratching my head.

 

[RTR91]

New Mexico????? Scratching my head.

Mike Locksley, the coach at UNM, is a heck of a recruiter. Arie considered UNM up until the end last year, as well.

 

[CrimsonProf]

Luginbill just said on Finebaum that he thinks Arie goes with Auburn. No joke.

 

[UA2373]

Finebaum tweet: Luginbill,'I think Cyrus Kouandjio is going to shock everyone and pick Auburn over Bama.'

Cyrus, not Arie

Luginbill,'I think Cyrus Kouandjio is going to shock everyone and pick Auburn over Bama.'

 

[Whiz]

Wow, that would be a shock.

 

[RTR91]

I don't get that. Cyrus canceled his AU visit (of course, things can change). Would he sign without a visit?

 

[Alabama Slammer]

Tom Luginbill thinks he ends up at the barn.



EDIT TO ADD - LOL, I see i'm the slowest typer of the people that just heard this.

 

[UA2373]

I still think he comes to UA...FWIW

 

[45longcolt]

Tom Luginbill is a joke with ZERO credibility IMO!!!

 

[CrimsonBleedRed]

I still think he comes to UA...FWIW

Yep. I am not even sweating about Cyrus. Auburn like many teams on his list were nothing more than window dressing.

 

[Highway59]

Awbum???:conf2: Well just when you think recruiting can't get any weirder.......:conf3: Maybe just some chain yanking going on._eyes:

 

[kyallie]

Tom Luginbill just took a shot in the dark,nobody will remember it when Cyrus goes with Bama!

 

[Tide Warrior]

I like the sound of this video. I like our chances and I did not hear him say much about Auburn. He also said he likes the idea of him playing with his brother and playing time is up to him. Tom needs to tell me where in that video from today he hears Auburn as the choice.

I didn't know that Cyrus had canceled his trip to AU. Thanks for the info.
