Actually, being from the South (but recognizing that Alabama is a long way from Michigan), most everyone in this part of the country recognizes that Auburn is a better school academically than Florida State (but not Florida). There are lots of rankings but U.S. News & World Report lists Auburn at 82 and FSU at 101. Neither have Michigan's reputation, of course, but not many schools do. Plus, anyone with any experience with Auburn will tell you that it is a great college town and like most of the SEC they know how to put on a football game, just like Michigan.
I do think Derrick Green is going to go to Auburn. They already have an outstanding recruiting class for 2013 and there are several other players that appear to be Auburn leans. If he and one or two others commit, Auburn could wind up with as many as 6 five stars.

Just weighing in. Usually just lurking. Thanks.
