Zac, can you imagine….Ju Ju Lewis and Caleb Cunningham both commit on Big Cat Weekend? lol. Long shot I know but…..CAN you imagine???

[@scb7999]

Cunningham going to bama as of right now

[@slimmdusty8809]

I can’t imagine considering how we’ve slipped with Cunningham

[@iggrigs]

I just can’t see it 🤐

[@moeller013]

If juju wants in before big cat you don't wait. Go public with it the second he says he wants in. Use that momentum to get more commits from other kids at big cat.

[@GracieSkywalker]

Juju to Auburn equals Cunningham to Auburn and hopefully we can flip Offord from OSU if I did the math we need 4-5 5 stars to get the top class which is a small possibility but top 3 class is looking like it will happen

[@devindawson606]

That may have been the best fan duel advertising I've ever seen 😂

[@VetteGuy57]

I will be in complete shock if he comes to AU. In an interview weeks ago he touted how the USC coach has produced Heisman QB’s and he wasn’t going anywhere. Likely shopping around as a negotiation tactic to extract more $$

[@hunterbelue4346]

I was thinking using this same logic, but at this point I’m booging and ready to be hurt

Great episode of locked on Juju. Keep up the great work guys.

[@jacksonflorey2912]

Nothing like a Charlie Tuesday!! Great show guys

[@rickturner5775]

I don’t think Juju comes unfortunately. We’re going to have to get some depth from the portal. People don’t realize how much Holden staying changed the QB recruiting. Had he left we would have 💯 went hard on a portal QB, which I don’t think we needed a million dollar QB, WW and the baby GOAT will be ready with a ton of quality supporting cast. Only way those kids aren’t successful is if they continue to lose reps to Holden. Freeze needs to push him out by naming Hank or WW QB2. He could be staying for coaching aspirations but I doubt it. Maybe the plan is to RS WW. That spaces him and Hank out more and we’re all of a sudden a decent QB school. If we whiff on Juju, all the top 40 are committed. Who do you go after? If someone says a situational or hybrid QB I’ll scream 😂

[@autk]

Holden is graduating after the season, he stayed for his Auburn degree, he isn't a threat to Hank or Walker as he does not fit in this offense, he's a drop back QB and he has never looked the part in any game action, in fact he has looked the opposite. He'll never start at Auburn.

[@davidnolen4003]

One of our best Intel sources is Alvin Henderson ? C'mon guys !

[@Robert-jk7ut]

I've seen that Auburn is in the top 3 toughest schedule this year

Nothing

@@ryand4940maybe Hank but White will stick around.

[@gamingdreams2142]

They are back ups. Are we not supposed to improve the quarterback room just to gamble on one of them? Then both of them suck and we passed on a truly top quarterback?

[@WarEagleWalrus]

Zac Blackberry can you do more funny stuff at the end like with the sour cream with Brad Law. I like hearing it helps me get through this job

[@wizarddragon]

What cryptic Tweets? I can't find anything. Alvin hasn't posted in a couple of days/

[@rickypainter4611]

Which school would it be easier for parents to contact me watch him play? May not be the deciding factor, but I would think it is a factor.

[@mrtyrone1107]

Does anyone think we lost some commits because we were trying clear out some nil money for juju? Or do I just not know how this thing is working

[@iggrigs]

lol. I will take losing carde and Lockhart as JuJu is coming home 🦅

[@mrtyrone1107]

@@iggrigs dang right

[@sloanlove1994]

No. I think we list commits due to better NIL offers from other schools and bonuses just for verbally committing

[@sloanlove1994]

Seriously, guys. KJ Lacey needs to be worked on NOW bc JuJu is not worth all the trouble esp losing recruits in the meantime bc this ridiculous wait . And USC has Lincoln Riley Naeem Offord was Freezes number one target and he snubbed Freeze

[@KoolBell4AU]

Freeze at 11th in the "Pressure Gauge" is accurate. But, only from the powers that be. The fans will be up in arms with a .500 season or worse.

[@Dllee92]

Can’t get excited until he signs

I think it’s a lot to do over a kid that is 16yrs old. I wish him luck though. He is looking at Riley having 3 heismen in 7 years of coaching. He don’t care about Auburn

[@braxtonorso6146]

Auburn threw more money at this kid than anyone in the country and he still doesn’t want to go to auburn.

[@ChrisSimpson-j6x]

We had a shot to get a legitimate quarterback in the transfer portal, but Hugh couldn't get the money together. We don't get the luxury that Georgia and Alabama get. Auburn has to pay upfront, and that's not happening. Look at Ohio St, Georgia, and Alabama they all have Quarterbacks locked in. Everyone was so excited when Nick left, but Alabama hadn't missed a beat. Caleb Cunningham is locked in at Alabama. I'm tired of you guys getting my hopes up. Juju isn't coming. Who's next? Answer that.
