Title: Antoine McClain
Post by: Subterranean Jack on January 21, 2008, 05:19:13 PM

What is the latest on Antoine McClain? I heard her was an Auburn lock and ready to commit 2 weeks ago. Is he going to qualify? Is Auburn still recruiting him? Only 1 OL commitment so far and I'm a little worried.

Yeah, they are recruiting him...pretty hard, from what I've heard.  And, he'll be making his official visit this weekend.  He'll probably wait until signing day to announce.

I am not quite as worried about the low numbers of OL we are recruiting.  We have hit that particular position really hard over the last couple of years.  Our two deep there looks pretty damn good by my judgement.

Everyone keeps talking about all this depth at OL, but we had 3 true freshmen beat out more experienced linemen in 2007.  If injuries strike the 5 OL starters, I'm not so sure about the backups filling their shoes. Besides Jermaine Johnson, who on the roster is a potential SEC linemen?
