Auburn adds another commitment

Hey everyone. Our friends on the Internets -- AuburnSports.com, AuburnUndercover.com and ITAT -- are reporting that OL Thomas O'Reilly has committed to play for Auburn beginning in 2011.

He stands 6-foot-3 and weighs 315 pounds. Sounds like a made-to-order guard.

O'Reilly, who is from suburban Atlanta, said he's planning to graduate in December and participate in Auburn's next round of spring drills.

He also has offers from Florida State, Mississippi State and Georgia Tech among others.

He is the fourth player to commit. OT Spencer Region also is in that group.

there once was a deputy named Fife,

who carried a gun and a knife.

the gun was all dusty,

the knife was all rusty,

cause he never caught a crook in his life.

Been out of town today. I see we got a big kid from GA today. Another part of the plan. Getting OL committed (and in school) is a good thing for AU. Looking for another one on April 21st.

I think we get another commit on A-day. Still a long way until February, but this staff is continuing to impress with their work ethic.

Good morning, Hotties,

Love the opening paragraph in the AJC story about the OL recruit.

thanks for that link, PF. If I was on MrsTHT's macbok, I would have found it. The AJC is still her home page...10 years after we left.

Blogger Peter Frankenschmidt said...

I found it via a late night Twitter from @AJCSportseditor...AJC does a lot of work on recruiting. I don't read it, but it's there. The comments on their sports articles are basically al.com

anybody listened to Slash's new cd? it's pretty good. he did the same thing that Santana did a few years back. guest singers on every track. pretty cool.

Sup homies? I like Sean's new avatar, I do not like Jet's. I also liked Fraggle Rock but that's completely different.

Does it suck like Santana's album? Sould I be able to find it on old jukeboxes in dark poolhalls frequented by rednecks like Santana's album?

Norm, thanks for the props, but really, Jenna does it all by herself. I have nothing to do with it.

8:04 AM

funny PF. no, it does not suck like Santana's album silly rabbit.

guest artists include Ozzy Osbourne, Chris Cornell, Adam Levine, Dave Grohl, & Kid Rock.

Lots of money has been made off of that group by the mental health community.

8:08 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

But how does it compare to anything by David Allan Coe? I must admit that I don't know who or what "Slash" is. Does that make me a hipster-doofus? Probably not all by itself it doesn't but it may certainly contribute.

8:09 AM  
Blogger Seanzie said...

So interesting comment from the AJC article: "If my best offer was from the 7th best program in the sec..." Where does he come off thinking Auburn is the 7th best program?

UGA fans are just as bad as Bammers. I guess they're still mad even though they beat Tech, Tech won something.

8:10 AM

In full disclosure, I bought that Santana album. I also bought a Nickelback album once, but that doesn't change my view that they're the crappiest band of all time.

I have The Bridge on my "C" band lineup. I'll hit it occasionally. James Taylor sounds good at times ...

Y'all know this already, but I have to say again: Barkley on "Inside The NBA" is so, so, so awesome. I wish more analysts (in any field) had the same honesty and panache.

Cincy-Nice car tag.

Last night I think D Reed got the 'shot hog' award.
B Knox got the 6th man award. He also came into the game after about the 2-3 minutes. Good thing AU didn't give out a 7th man award, because they didn't have a 7th man.

Most teams always give out a 'most improved' award. AU did not have a most improved this year.

What a long night. Beard Eaves sound system is so bad. 75% of the time you never understood the music, much less the lyrics to anything that was played.

o'reily's commit gives AU a great chance with reese dismukes (OL from spanish fort). o'reily says he and spencer region have been recruiting dismukes hard. that would give AU a tackle, gaurd and center prospect committed and room for at least two more OL. nice job.

I've been to a few Greek sings. It was an event much like many high school football games. You show up, socialize, glance down at the action from time to time. At the end you see who wins then everyone goes out.

There is no need to be friends with Pat Dye, Vince Dooley, and the Lott Trophy on facebook. The same person controls them all and posts the same messages on all three.

To file in the "worthless information" category, I remembered where "try it, you'll like it" was from. The old Alka Seltzer commercials. Glad that is settled, it was bugging my brain.

That's just about the most beautiful license plate I've ever seen.

If by "going to have your nails done" you mean walking into the bathroom to find my nail clippers, then, YES, I AM!

ehyou - You are correct re: Gerry Rafferty. I always admired his self confidence in that even though a (presumed) speech impediment prevented correct enunciation of "through", he still used that word a bunch. My favorites are Stealin' Time, Whatever's Written in Your Heart, and Island.

ANd of course Stuck in the Middle with You oh my stars! Those clothes!!!

Greek Sing is always interesting. I went my freshman year. But we had a few beverages beforehand, definitely made sitting through it a lot better.

If you don't tip well, don't go back because they'll remember you. If you go out to eat and can't tip well, then you really can't afford to go out to eat.
