SAD NEWS: Auburn tigers have sings in a new player in their team today…….Read More…

Wide receiver Cam Coleman, the Auburn Tigers’ prized recruit in last year’s top-10 recruiting class, will take his first college snaps in two months. While Alabama A&M may resemble a cupcake game for the Auburn Tigers, many see him as both a trailblazer and harbinger of future success.

Coleman’s path to The Plains, from a recent historical viewpoint is unique and frustrating, none of which involves him.

However, it speaks to a purposeful choice. For decades, either through weak attempts or outright ignoring, The University of Alabama took over Eastern Alabama to Columbus, Ga., in regards to recruiting. Now, hope surfaces that Cam Coleman’s successful recruitment will lead to a strengthening of the pipeline into Auburn University.

Coleman called Phenix City, Ala. home. Phenix City rests on the western side of the Chattahoochee River Valley, 40 minutes from Auburn. Additionally, the city is a part of the Columbus-Auburn-Opelika metropolitan area. This region contains 563,967 residents.

The region teems with standout football talent. Hall of Fame linebacker DeMarcus Ware grew up in Auburn. His high school understudy, two-time Super Bowl champion Osi Umenyiora called the area home. Hundreds of talented players call the region home.

Despite the voluminous numbers of players, a question remains: How did Auburn allow other schools to slip in and sign so much talent from the area, their area? Instead of a pipeline that runs straight from Columbus to Auburn, it ran from Columbus to everywhere else.
