I didn’t say that Auburn wouldn’t land recruits, or that “no one will want to go to Auburn”. I said that if they finished with a losing record that they wouldn’t finish with a top 10 class.
They are still getting differences makers it’s what Freeze does. That kid has no reason to go to Auburn over ND and others who are after him. I wasn’t specifically singling out you cause I forgot we had this discussion till I saw this post now. I just think that if someone can recruit they can recruit no matter what regardless.

Freeze is probably the most overrated coach in all of college football. Lost plenty at Ole Miss but he and Dabo were the only guys that could beat Saban.

His system is antiquated a lot like Malzahn's and then Jamey Chadwell has already shown he can do it better at Liberty because he's a better coach with a better system. Won't be long before he's out the door. But he can recruit and he'll load that roster up and the next guy will win games with his talent.
Yea he might be over rated but that doesn’t mean he cannot get elite talent. Those are two different things
 
I wouldn't say he can't coach either. Auburn is a far second in that state. They've always played second fiddle to Bama, in state and nationally.

Nationally, they'll pull some, that's the nature of recruiting. As the SEC expands, there's more competition on and off the field. Auburn is at best a middle of the road option for any top talent.

They've got all the bells and whistles that everyone could want, but they're still Bama's little brother. You've got some giant programs in that conference who have deeper pockets and want it more.

They could put something together, but perception plays a big part. As seasons go on, I think their candle will dim even further. Put some seasons together and hope Bama drops off as well, obviously things can change.
