How do you think this would affect AR if he did go after this guy? How about EJ? I think it would be a bad idea for the family environment.

This. And as Seabee said, we've seen a glimpse of what the offense can look like with effective passing. And within 3 months, we have three effective passers on the roster. Unless this kid decides he's ok doing something else(which wouldn't make much sense if he's bailing), I wouldn't touch him and risk upsetting what we have.

I don;t think they reach out to him personally for the very reason of chemistry etc. I think Cousin Eddie likes EJ enough and he seems to also fit Cousin Eddie's style. He may not be a bruiser but he is pretty strong for his size. I was simply pointing out that Gatewood is a carbon copy of the guy Cousin Eddie had at Cowbell (forgot his name), only a bit more a QB and much more highly regarded coming out of HS.

@mzenitz: Auburn QB Joey Gatewood is now officially in the NCAA transfer portal, per source. Was just entered into the database a few minutes ago. Backup QB Joey Gatewood leaving Auburn program

Someone on talk radio was just saying a few days ago how maddening it is that every other year Malzahn insists on trying to use a passing QB to run his system rather than just accepting what he is and going with the better runner of the two. Just as Stidham didn't truly fit, I'm not sure Nix does either.

It's like us ever even looked at Beck in recruiting.

Nix is a passer?

Beck was stupid.

AU, Bammer, UF, Cincy, and Tater were his top 5 coming out of high school, FWIW.

From Urban Dictionary for reference.....

Tater
One who is a fan of the Clemson Tigers. Originally an agricultural school, "tater" has become a nickname for anyone who goes to the school or supports its team.
Carolina Fan: "Did you see them damn taters in town today?"
Carolina fan 2: "Yep, they were missing their front teeth."

I see. A South Carolina specific reference. Nice.

1) 247 listed him as an athlete;
2) his 247 rating is probably higher than any QB on our roster including AR;
3) his size is about perfect for CDM;
and,
4) he is a Floridian.

My sympathies. The last time I had it, it took some serious cough syrup (the kind with codeine) to be able to sleep. I felt like a zombie for two days and according to Mrs. G often didn't make much sense when I spoke, but I was able to sleep and recover. Knock on wood, it's been over seven years since I had a bout....
Wimps. I went to work with that sh*t all last week. Wife did, too.

I don't see any reason to reach out unless we feel like EJ is leaving.
