Until Freeze, Auburn wasn't on the big boy recruiting list. However, some on this board believe Freeze is Mario's equal from a recruiting standpoint and a superior gameday coach. If he takes a remedial phone management and/or records keeping course, he could be problematic on the trail (especially in the South).

Connor LewAuburn MiamiI'm still bitter about this one and it still stings. The loss of Lew has forced Mario to hit the portal for a Center for two consecutive cycles.

The good thing about the H2H with Auburn, yes we're losing a lot which is not good, but we're losing on Alabama and Georgia kids. We're winning on some good ones too, but they're staying out of South Florida for the most part. They used to come down and take guys from our back yard and got some goods ones in the past like Carlton Davis, Jeremiah Dinson, Jayvaughn Myers, Anthony Schwartz, Jamien Sherwood, Shaun Shivers, etc.

They're basically a non-factor in South Florida right now.

They used to have an absolute pipeline to Dillard HS back in the day.
