Much rather have them than guys like beas, Scotland williamson, and whatever pg he was bringing in with no offers

Might wanna check the backcourt we've recruited some of them didnt have that many offers also.

Well when your will no accept the value Norton or Baxter provide, no matter what anybody says, it's pretty easy to win you stupid argument.
You do realize Davis was telling these guys to leave, right?


Lol, funny guy......

I dont care if Davis did or didnt first off. Secondly you dont know me again kid, if so win it.

So far only Watts,Madison, and maybe I'll give you Norton counts as recruits. Look at the schools associated with their recruitment. Look at Dirk its known he had Va Tech interest/ offer so there was that ,and also Norton wasnt he Creighton bound so you know there's some talent.

Another thing Norton is the only true pg on the roster so he's kinda the x factor huh. What thing has he exactly improved on? I know this is Blazertalk not UA or AU talk but its funny both of their recent hires have truely taken care of the PG position with three true point guards.

I missed the great season auburn is having somewhere along the way. Norton is somewhere around the top of the country in assist to turnover ratio. He is our best shooter in my opinion. Those aren't any improvements though.

If you can't see the improvements Norton has made and how important he is to this team then Im not sure if you're even paying attention.

Yeah, this thread is seriously terrible. Mike Davis' last 2 recruiting years were absolute disasters so I'm not sure why we're having a conversation about Haase's recruiting.

As far as Alabama goes, it is very likely that both UAB and UA end up with very similar RPIs in the 70s-80s.

Auburn probably won't be favored to win a single other game this season except maybe Ole Miss at home if they're lucky.

But Mike Davis almost signed Cousins!!

I think it's funny that we have manipulated Big Dee into defending a argument he probably didn't start out meaning to defend.

So tell us why you would rather have Davis's role players over the players we have that Haase recruited?

Davis did have us rank about this time or tanking. Also its crazy i have to defend Davis like he was great. The dudes games were so boring i use to fall asleep. Haase would have to make the tourney just to honestly say he's an improvement.

We were ranked in the AP poll under Davis for a grand total of 2 weeks in 2010.

Looks like the last two both should be starters.

I'm pretty sure coach plays 10 guys and the non-starting 5 needs a clutch scorer when Brown isn't in the game.

This seems to be a difficult thing for you wrap your head around.

Our ASN announcers exactly backed up your statement on Thursday night. The play by ay man said how lost our guys were on offense with Nick out of the game.

Pretty sure if we let Rob or HaHa play we wouldn't need an ten man rotation. Also the ball movement with the second rotation is lacking probably why we give up huge leads.

He's the only true pg. Play Baxter at point then see what happens.

With Bobby knight's players. Shocker, we all know.
One of the biggest things blazer fans fail to accept is Haase was stuck with what Davis was recruiting his first year. Look at the timeline, tell me this is a shocker.
