It has only been two weeks but Auburn’s new TE/H-Back coach is already helping Auburn out on the recruiting trail. It's hard to confirm 100% that some of the recent moves are tied to him but knowing his background it doesn't seem like a coincidence.
Recruiting is all about relationships. For some reason, though, it seems like that is even truer in Louisiana where the purple and gold roots run deep. High school coaches can be a bit political but it just seems like it’s taken to a different level in Louisiana where recently high school coaches considered boycotting LSU because a coach they liked was demoted, another coach was fired for claiming Alabama was banned from campus due to Brandon Harris's recruitment and six LA kids committed to Kansas thanks to their new RB coach Tony Hull, who used to be a head coach at Warren Easton High in New Orleans.
