What makes this even more impressive....
« on: February 03, 2010, 04:55:12 PM »
Look at the top 15 players in Florida's class.  9 are in-state talents from Florida

Look at the top 15 players in Texas' class.  13 are in-state talents from Texas.

USC.....10 of their top 15 are from California.

Auburn's top 15 players consist of only 4 players from in-state. 

7 of them are from 6 different states that have a combined 11 other SEC or ACC programs (12 if you count the fact that Alabama is also out-of-state looking at a lot of these same kids). 

I just can't stress enough how impressive it is to me that we were able to grab two 5-star recruits and five 4-star recruits from those kinds of competitive conditions. 

Not only that, but six of them were among the top 10 players in the state from which we picked them, including top 5 players like Dyer (1), Whitaker (5), Reed (1), Coleman (1), and Lemonier (5).

Wow, just wow.

"To me Auburn is not in Auburn, Alabama. Auburn is the people who care about Auburn, the people who love Auburn. Wherever they are, that’s Auburn, Auburn is in your heart. You play for it."
