For those of you who are unaware, the Auburn coaching staff has taken an unprecedented approach to recruiting. Instead of using this time period, which is generally alloted for seven coaches to go out on recruit evaluations, to send coaches out to as many schools as possible, the Auburn staff has decided to group all seven together and send them in a stretch Hummer (decked out with AU magnets, flags, etc.) to select schools around the state.
They say this sends a message that Auburn is no longer going to be beaten in Alabama. And I AGREE.
The plan was also for them to go to Smiths Station High, Auburn and Opelika Highs, Stanhope Elmore and Prattville High today. I know they made it to Smiths Station (for about 10 minutes), but I don't know about the others.
Basically what they did at Central High (Phenix City) is sit and talk with different coaches (about them, their families and different players/prospects), meet administrators, tour the facilities and watch kids if they are working out or practicing, etc. A few kids tried to converse with the coaches but all they replied with was War Eagle before the HS coach took them aside and explained the rules.
Today, coaches Luper, Taylor, Roof, Lolley, Malzahn, Rocker and Thigpen were on the Prowl.
Oh, and by the way, I asked Coach Roof why he had a different shirt than everyone else yesterday and the day before and he said he spilled coffee on it (haha!) and his wife had to get it dry cleaned. So that's that.

Aight, the Auburn coaches have pulled off this Tiger Prowl. They looked sharp at Hoover and the positive press along with the opportunity to bond should be a good momentum builder.
It was good to see that they made adjustments. The bowling shirts and old school Lincoln stretch during the beginning wer very lame, but they worked it out and I think they are making some serious noise now.
