Rodney Garner to Auburn!

How will this impact UGA's recruiting?

Do Gators pick up a gem?

[dadx4]

I don't think so.

I'm for it if it hurts the mutts.

What about DT Adams?

Who'll deliver the cars, write the checks and pay the street agents in Athens now?

He was Adams position coach and main recruiter.

Adams to Auburn!

Don't be surprised...you know Auburn would expect him too deliver someone like Adams and of course they are not shy about spending to get players.

"I just found out," Adams told the AJC on Thursday night. "Yes, it affects how I feel about Georgia, but I'm not sure how much. I'm still trying to take it all in."

Rather than have a negative impact on UGA, it will probably be more of a positive for Auburn. Adams said he may take his fifth official visit with the Tigers, now that Garner is hired. "Yes, that will probably be it," he said.


I find this odd. He's willing to now consider a school out of the blue because the recruiting coordinator went there? What kind of relationship does he have exactly that one man could change your view on where he's playing for the next 3/4 years? Did he watch Auburn this year at all?

I can't make sense of it! Whatever he feels is best, I guess!

It sure makes you wonder how one guy could sway a recruit to take a visit somewhere he wasn't considering before. Is this the case with Adams? Was he ever interested in Auburn?

I just don't understand why anyone would want to go to that cesspool.

Garner would be his position coach as well at auburn , not that that should completely change his mind but it at least makes some sense... well that and all the money auburn spends on free agen... er recruits.

I would guess the #1 DT in the country is probably going for $250K at this point...remember back in the day Bama was willing to pay Albert Means close to that kind of money. I'm guessing at some point you might see a player getting a million dollars to play somewhere....I love how people think paying players a monthly stipend would stop all the spending but in reality these schools are way past a monthly stipend amount when it comes to paying these guys.
