Caleb and B-Matt provide some sharp analysis about what's happened and what's to come. The crew also dicusses the basketball team's trip to Duke for the...

Bryan Matthews, Caleb Jones, Brian Stultz, Henry Patton and Jay G. Tate reconvene at VooDoo to discuss important happenings in and around the Auburn program, which primarily centers on the football program playing host (potentially) to a trio of visitors. One of them is a coveted tailback. He's a Tier I guy, but is he the guy Auburn wants? Caleb discusses. Basketball also is playing host — bringing Texas forward Dillon Mitchell to the Plains for a visit and chats about how Auburn can mae him better. And how he can make Auburn better. Auburn needs another big man. Stultzy adds his...

Bryan Matthews, Caleb Jones, Brian Stultz, Henry Patton and Jay G. Tate reconvene at VooDoo to discuss important happenings in and around the Auburn program, which primarily centers on the Tigers adding another portal OL and a high-school LB. They are both positions of needs, so those changes are augmentative. The high-school LB, Tyler Lockhart from Winona, Miss., committed at 10 p.m. on a Monday. What's that all about? Caleb has ideas. Bruce Pearl is bringing in a pair of coveted portal targets — one combo guard and one power forward — who could turn this excellent roter into an epic...

Bryan Matthews, Caleb Jones, Brian Stultz, Henry Patton and Jay G. Tate reconvene at VooDoo to discuss important happenings in and around the Auburn program, which primarily centers on the Tigers landing a KEY PORTAL TRANSFER in (former) Penn State wideout KeAndre Lambert-Smith. What does his arrival do for the wideout room? Payton Thorne? The team? Potentially a whole lot. Auburn now has added four players via the spring portal and has lost four via the spring portal? It's not a wash. The Tigers have cleaned up. Caleb checks in with Thompson HS safety Anquon Feagans, the guys discuss players...

Bryan Matthews, Caleb Jones, Brian Stultz, Henry Patton and Jay G. Tate reconvene at VooDoo to discuss important happenings in and around the Auburn program, which today centers on several football comings and goings via the transfer portal. The DL has been solidified in a big way with the addition of three portal transfers. Might Auburn be able to add the WR from Penn State as well? That would be useful. Caleb interviewed several impact recruits during the Rivals Camp in Atlanta last weekend — incluing the nation's top overall player JuJu Lewis from California. He's definitely interested in...

Bryan Matthews, Caleb Jones, Brian Stultz, Henry Patton and Jay G. Tate reconvene at VooDoo to discuss important happenings in and around the Auburn program, which primarily centers on the TRANSFER PORTAL opening again for football. Brenton Williams already is headed out. What will Auburn look to add this time? Looks like the emphasis will be on the DL and at WR. Cannot rule out a QB, though. Basketball has been busy this week — with a point guard arriving and another leaving. Is BP preparing to basically run it back? Softball had a good weekend. Baseball did not. It's looking dire for the...

info_outlineBryan Matthews and Jay G. Tate reconvene over the Internet to discuss the important happenings in and around the Auburn program, which includes the first week of spring football and exciting times for basketball.
Auburn began spring ball last week before taking this week off for spring break. B-Matt says he's already hearing some good things about Too Tall Miller while Jay G. heard some positive chatter about both Cam Coleman and Keldric Faulk.
Ont the basketball tip, Bruce Pearl's team has won two in a row (including a road win at Mizzou) and now faces Georgia in the regular-season finale. It sure looks like the Tigers have a really good shot at landing a top-four seed and the early-round bye that accompanies it.
B-Matt really likes what Auburn's point guards have been doing throughout these past four games.
Coach Johnnie's team is kicking, too, with an 8-8 league record and a tournament game against Arkansas ahead. Win that and it's almost certain that the Auburn women will be in the Big Dance. (They've probably done enough already, but why leave anything to chance?)
Baseball is playing pretty well, though the team will be without Josephy Gonzalez this weekend. B-Matt explains why.
Softball? Maddie Penta sure is good. The bats are not. The team plays at Mizzou this weekend.
The show ends with a relatively modest array of commendations and shoutouts for the most outstanding members (this week) from The Bunker community. There's only two guys on the show this week, after all.
The show is presented by VooDoo Wing Company with locations in Auburn, Mobile, Tuscaloosa, Florence, Charlotte and Las Vegas. Check them out IN PERSON for delicious chicken or on the web at www.voodoowingco.com.
