Excellent war eagle, welcome to the family. Keep it up coach chiz and co
Solid, solid addition. Should compete for one of the open gurad spots right away. This may be Auburn's best OL recruting class ever, or at least close to Zimba, Pugh, and Ramisy of '07 and look when that class took us. Now if we can land Kouandjio...WOW.
WAR EAGLE!!!!!!
