Apparently is interested in us...
Auburn is getting in late on the recruitment of Olathe (Kan.) South offensive lineman Braden Smith, but it appears the Tigers are in the hunt.
Smith's father, Dave, told 247Sports that Auburn began showing interest in his son last month, when it became apparent that left tackle Greg Robinson would be leaving early for the NFL draft, and the 6-foot-6, 290-pound Smith is looking to wedge a visit to the Plains into his plans this month.
Smith is slated to visit Notre Dame on the weekend of Jan. 17, Texas A&M on Jan. 24 and TCU on Jan. 31. His father said he may try to go to Auburn on Martin Luther King, Jr., Day, Jan. 20, after going to South Bend.
TCU is thought to have the inside track, but Dave Smith told 247Sports: "He likes (Auburn's) style of offense."
Smith could play tackle or guard on the college level. He's rated as the No. 3 offensive guard prospect in the nation in the 247Sports Composite, while Rivals.com lists him as the No. 5 offensive tackle prospect in the country.
:jaw:
Auburn has only one offensive lineman committed in its 2014 class, junior-college center Xavier Dampeer. The Tigers are also recruiting another junior-college lineman, Arizona Western tackle Jordan Prestwood, but are reportedly looking at him as a tight end.

Its nice to know that there are high school guys today who can bench my best squat!

What they didn't show was 5 minutes later his chest imploded.

My super secret insider info say that Auburn has moved way up his list rather quickly. Signing day decision between TCU and Auburn. His sister is on the Track squad at TCU, so they may be hard to beat.

If the rest of those guys in the video are his teammates he must look like Andre the Giant when they dress out.

Mama says a high school kid don't do 3 reps with 515 lbs. unless he's takin' some high quality PED.

I have longish arms.
Back to Braden...I would like to see him at DT some, put about 30lbs. on him and with his quick first step he could be a nasty DT.

I hope he pancakes Reuban and Evans in an Iron Bowl.
