quote:

Former Thibodaux High coach Dennis Lorio says several coaches and students saw Robinson show off cash and a new iPhone at school after a visit to Auburn. Robinson wrote in a Facebook message in July that he got the phone when "I came to Alabama.”


quote:

But reaction to Robinson’s Auburn pledge wasn’t so positive among his family. His grandmother, Lydia Robinson, is unhappy about his choice for many reasons and hopes he changes his mind before signing day on Feb. 2. She doesn’t think highly of Auburn’s coaches, who she says “weren’t very intelligent.” She is especially not fond of Taylor, who she says “got a lot of lies in there when he was talking.”


WOW. With all the success Auburn seems to be having on the recruiting trail, this article certainly makes you wonder.

I distrust anyone who says "God sent me a vision", and anyone who delivers pizzas too.

During an interview last month at a fast-food restaurant in which he wore a gray LSU pullover, Nelson, 30, talked about playing football at Thibodaux High and how he could have played in college but didn’t because he wasn’t exposed to the opportunity.

I posted a post yesterday about Greg Robinson and how his family came rent a car from me so they can travel to the Army All American game. Mrs. Lydia, who is his grandma, was all dressed up in LSU gear and was very excited about the game last night. His mom spoke highly of LSU and Coach Miles and his wife and mentioned twice how she believes he will change his mind at the end (go read my post from yesterday titled Greg Robinson). I was also told Mrs. Lydia kicked Auburn's recruiting coordinator out of her house saying how they are not taking her grandchild away from her out of state.
I can't wait for them to bring the car back Monday to see if I can get some more scoop!

If you knew your program was about to go on sanctions, wouldn't you buy off as many players as you can? That way you can have as full a cupboard as possible when they revoke your ships? Some will transfer but not all.

And holy shite, someone actually sees through Trooper's lies? He sure can sell a lie and most of these kids are going to regret their decisions in a year or two.

Robinson's grandmother's thoughts on some Auburn's coaches

quote:

On their recruiting tactics

quote:

Robinson, who won’t say where she wants her grandson to attend college, says she is also upset that Nelson and Taylor had her grandson take several visits to Auburn without her or his mother’s permission. At times, she says, she didn’t know his whereabouts.


Wow

Memphis told us Auburn messed with the wrong peeps and it would come to light. There was more, but it was literally 20 some odd pages.
