Robert Nkemdiche, Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports
Here are the 20 names you need to know and follow as National Signing Day approaches.
1. Robert Nkemdiche: The top player in America is 6'5 and 275 pounds, but moves like someone 40 pounds lighter. This freak was once committed to Clemson, but all signs now point to him joining his brother at Ole Miss.
2. Laremy Tunsil: The best offensive tackle in the country out of Lake City (Fla.) Columbia High School is down to Georgia and Alabama, with Ole Miss and perhaps Florida State having an outside shot.
3. Eddie Vanderdoes: The former USC commit is arguably the best defensive tackle recruit in the country. He's now considering Notre Dame, UCLA, Washington and Alabama, as well as the Trojans.
4. Matthew Thomas: Thomas, a lanky linebacker out of Miami (Fla.) Booker T. Washington high School, is ridiculously explosive and has the frame to add considerable muscle. Thomas has narrowed his list to Miami, Florida State, Alabama, Georgia and USC.
5. Montravius Adams: Adams' quickness off the ball is excellent for a defensive tackle. He's thought to be a battle between Clemson and the home-state Georgia Bulldogs.
6. Laquon Treadwell: Treadwell is arguably the best receiver in the country. Out of Illinois, he was long considered a lock to head to Michigan, but a falling out now has Ole Miss in the driver's seat. Oklahoma State and Oklahoma are also in contention.
7. Reuben Foster: Foster is the best inside linebacker recruit in the class. A hair under 6'2 and 240 pounds, Foster's highlight tape is the stuff of legend. Oh, and he transferred from Lagrange (Ga.) to Auburn (AL.) High School, committed to the Tigers, got an Auburn tattoo and subsequently decommitted. Georgia, Alabama, Auburn and Washington are all contenders for his signature.
8. Elijah Daniel: One of two five-star types in a rare good year for the state of Indiana, the 6'4, 255-pound defensive end was once committed to Clemson, but is now considering Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Florida.
9. Vonn Bell: A five-star safety out of Georgia, Bell is down to Alabama, Ohio State and Tennessee. Bell has a ton of range, and most believe Alabama will be his destination come National Signing Day.
10. Tony Conner: Conner is a classic run-stopping safety out of South Panola (MS) High School. He delayed his announcement in early January, and will not announce closer to signing day between Alabama, Ole Miss and Auburn. Ole Miss expects to sign Conner.
11. Derrick Green: One of the best, and more underrated (by some) running backs in the class. Derrick Green has loved Michigan for a while, though Auburn still remains in contention. A no-nonsense power back, Green has good quickness for his size and doesn't try to do things outside of his skill set.
12. MacKensie Alexander: What an interesting recruitment it's been for this five-star corner from Immokalee (Fla.) High School. He was a Tennessee commitment for a time, then, after FSU took a commitment from his brother, some expected him to end up in Tallahassee. That situation didn't work out, as MacKensie didn't join Mackenro, and FSU and Mackenro parted ways. Clemson is thought to have the best shot at him, with Texas A&M, Auburn, and Nebraska also in contention. His mother reportedly wants the school that gets Mackensie to also take Mackenro, and that could be tough at some places.
13. Alex Collins: One of the best running backs in the country out of South Plantation (Fla.) High School. A long-time Miami commitment, Collins backed off after realizing the magnitude of potential sanctions coming from the NCAA. He then really liked Florida State until running back coach and primary recruiter Eddie Gran left for Cincinnati to take the offensive coordinator job. Having always been fond of Wisconsin, Collins then began eying Arkansas when Bret Beliema headed to Fayetteville. Florida is still in the mix as well, as is Miami. Read up on Collins' recruitment here.
14. Dee Liner: Two incidents with police and a commitment to Auburn had Alabama fans talking trash about the five-star defensive linemen out of Muscle Shoals (AL) High School. But after Monday's decommitment from Auburn, Tide fans will welcome him with open arms if (when) he eventually chooses Alabama.
15. Stacy Coley: Coley doesn't say much about his recruitment. The five-star receiver out of Ft. Lauderdale Fla.) Northeast High School is one of the more natural receivers in the class. Everything he does is smooth, and he has plenty of athleticism to go with his feel for the game. Most think he ends up at Florida State, though several other schools, including Miami, are in the mix.
16. Priest Willis: Willis is a promising safety recruit (or a corner in select systems) out of Arizona. LSU is thought to be his leader, but Nebraska, UCLA, and Florida State are also in the mix.
17. Alvin Kamara: Another border war is brewing between Alabama and Georgia for the talented Peach State running back. Kamara reminds me of Marshall Faulk. He is undersized, and doesn't have track speed, but is very quick, catches the ball as well as many receivers, and has a great feel for the game.
18. Tahaan Goodman: Goodman is a big-hitting safety out of California. His leaders include USC, UCLA, LSU and perhaps Oklahoma. Here's our scouting report of Goodman.
19. Asiantii Woulard: The former USF QB commitment out of Central Florida is now on the market again. At 6'4, 200 pounds with lots of athleticism and a big arm, Woulard has a lot of tools. He will also need a redshirt and probably another year or two on the bench to learn the game, depending on the system. Woulard is considering UCLA, Clemson, Kentucky, South Florida and N.C. State.
20. Kylie Fitts: Fitts was one of the stars in USC's class and was set to enroll early. Then USC really screwed him over and didn't allow him to enroll early, causing Fitts to decommit. The talented defensive end from California is still considering the Trojans, but UCLA, Oregon, Alabama and Notre Dame have jumped in the mix.

Green announces around 4pm ET.

Green announces around 4pm.
Looks like we are out of the running for Green...not on campus.
We could sign as many as 26. Currently list 18.
Guessing we get Walton, Bell and Cunningham.

He may have been a long shot anyway, but Bisaccia really fucked us there. Wish we would have sent him & Horton together. You'd think we would have anyway for RB commits given some of the names he's coached that would be sure to perk up a RB recruit's ears.
-
Yup. Michigan. Thanks Bisaccia.
-
He was going to Michigan anyway, regardless if Bisaccia stayed. If he didn't pick UM he would've picked UT.
-
I predict we retain Lawson and Foster, losing only Liner and could very well hold on to Bower. It's quite possible we fight it out with UGA in the wanning days for Montravious Adams, but I give them the edge.
We still finish top twenty any way you look at it. I'm disappointed if we don't get at least 3 DTs and 4 LBs because this was a glaring need. And when the sister fuckers latch hold of three of the top fifteen RBs of 2013 and we are nowhere to be found in the next year's rankings (2014) that leaves one stinging due to the tradition that Auburn has as RBU.

Unless he didn't times infinity.

Here's my prediction of the big 3 defensive players that Auburn is in for:
Reuben Foster (UGA)
Carl Lawson (UT)
Montravious Adams (Clemson)

I'm going with Foster and Lawson coming home to AU and Adams goes to Clemson. We don't have a remote shot at Adams, unless he changes his mind and decides to give us a late visit.
-
We need Adams worse than some of the others. Can Garner flip him? We have plenty of linebackers, and we have Jake.

Momma Foster really liked UGA and Lawson's Personal Trainer is a UT Booster.
Btw, those were my predictions...not the skreet's prediction, same as your predictions.
Skreets, Word On The Skreets, Word Around Town, I Heard, A Little Birdie Told Me, etc., etc. are all the same thing.
My opinion, Here's what I think, In my honest opinion, etc., etc. are all the same thing.
Your opinion is just that. What you've heard or seen elsewhere (Skreets, Grapevine, Birdie, etc) is just that...they don't mix and match.
So when I make a post with â€Here's what I think, etc, etc,†there's nothing about my skreets involved in that post. Now if I were to make a post with â€Word On The Skreets or WOTS, etc, etc,†then yes, that would involve my Skreets or my information gathered from sources.
I swear, it's like I'm talking to 5 year olds around here.
Look, I deal with god damn people so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

In a skreet fight, I WIN!
Foster is IN the bag. LAWSON, not so much and I predict Adams will make a visit on the 2nd.
I'm not so impressed, NOT going to tow the company line but this is apparently the best we can do.
We need to flip some pledges committed to other schools and beat out others for the best three stars.

Some hope for the kid from No Hope but I doubt it.

In other news...Florida pulled their offer to 6'3" 235 lb. linebacker, James Hearns. Could be academics but he says he'll be qualified. He said it could be because he is taking other visits. Anywho...looks to be between us and Kentucky.
