I don't think he ever said he liked Auburn because the coach. Last I heard was he liked the D Line coach I believe, seemed to like the game day environment and I'm pretty sure it's been put out there with auburn giving out bags.
I agree doesnt look good. As far as the wait sometimes kids have waited years just to participate in the signing day shenanigans. I would think at this point Mario should have a solid idea where miami stands, the fans just don't.
