It is quite amazing how great of a class they still have despite their on field performance. My guess is Chizek is saying whatever the recruits want to hear because he knows if there is any chance at all (however minimal it is) for him to keep his job it depends on this class. If he gets canned I would imagine the class falls apart real quick.

This is a really good question Klein. Does the recent National Championship out weight the current season's failure? Auburn does has a historical pull, and I think it's felt a lot more in SEC country, but Chizik is on a really hot seat, so players have to worry about that. Then again, it is a long time until February, and it might be my bias speaking, but it seems that SEC early commits tend to vacillate a lot more than kids who commit to northern schools.

I will add though, a lot of the players they have committed are from AL. The gem of the bunch is even from Auburn. The kids from NJ and GA are the ones I would worry about, but the others might be like kids from Columbus or Hastings who would play at NU no matter who the coach is.

Yep. I saw a post on a random article I found talking about the Bama loss. A person said he thinks the national title should be Bama v LSU no matter what their records are because they are the two best teams no question. I don't think they know what is going on outside of the south

I don't know, beyond the obvious ($$$). But MAN would I love to poach some of their DL recruits. Carl Lawson is the best DE prospect in the country, IMO.
