Rogers Lineman Ziemba To Commit To Auburn

The Morning News
ROGERS -- Rogers offensive lineman Lee Ziemba has scheduled a press conference Friday morning to announce that he will attend Auburn University. The news conference will be held in the Commons Area at Rogers High.
Ziemba had more than a dozen offers from Division I schools but narrowed his choices to Auburn and Arkansas. Ziemba took an official visit to Arkansas last month and took a trip to Auburn last weekend.
Ziemba said Wednesday that he had hoped that word of decision would not leak out until Friday. As late as Monday, Ziemba said he was still undecided and praying about the decision despite reportedly giving a verbal pledge to Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville while in Alabama.
The 6-foot-7, 305-pound offensive tackle also refused comment on what led him to Auburn or whether the recent turmoil regarding the departures of former Arkansas assistant Gus Malzahn and former Razorbacks quarterback Mitch Mustain influenced his decision.
"I'll talk about that at the press conference," Ziemba said.
Ziemba was a three-year starter at Rogers and was named the Arkansas Gatorade Player of the Year and the Class 7A Player of the Year by the Little Rock Touchdown Club.

Go Auburn! "

" By by U HDN couch coaches...
Wow!! Get ready for the next level after Gus and Mitch mom...
“David Lee is a quality person and a fine football coach,” Parcells said. “I think he will be a great asset to the Arkansas program. While he has been with the Cowboys, he has helped all of our quarterbacks develop and grow. I think he is an excellent teacher of fundamentals at the quarterback position, and he has a solid grasp of how to develop an effective offensive philosophy with the talent that is available to him."
Now that is by Parcells himself. Like I said the next level is winning the SEC out right!! Go Razorbacks!!

" Who are you kidding? You really think that Nutt is going to let anyone have any real control? David Lee is just the next in line of the puppets. Aldo, do you honestly believe that Mcfadden and Jones and the offense can run the football as effectively next year when other teams are going to stack 8 in the box like the last few teams of 2006 did? When we have no downfield passing game to open up for the run? It doesn't matter who is calling the plays. As long as Nutt and Broyles are there and committed to a simplistic straightforward run offense with no balance, you are destined for a tougher season next year, even after those two scheduled a weaker season to help give themselves room. Plus nationally UA isn't respected and is a joke! "

" The cancer is a mutli headed beast. It's infecting us from the inside core spreading outward at a fast pace. No, it's not players defecting, or coaches moving on, instead.. It's what is supposed to be the brains of the thing. Broyles and Nutt. Dumb and Dumber. Mr. Ziemba is smart enough to see it and is going to where he can be coached by a quality staff that will develop him and lead on teaching advanced skills instead of cheering and spreading lies and deceit. I say good luck Ziemba.. Take it easy on us in the future. "

" I see all the top talent that Arkansas has, continue to go to other football programs...that is either a sign of back Razorback coaching or prospects wanting to play only for THEIR own futures. I am a 40 year born and raised Hog fan...but we continually seem to get the average to poor talent for the Razorbacks...what happened to just playing for the Hogs because you love them??? "

" If you are a recruit, the last thing you need to do is ready message boards when choosing a school. Less than 10% of any teams fans regularly post. You have a radical group that posts multiple times per day on every board going. See the school, and the other 90% of the fans before you make your decision. It's about the quality of the program, and the probability of making it to the next level. Keep you head on straight and don't let a handful of whiners determine your future. They obviously don't have one. "

" Blogs are sort of like political polls. When you have a number, you can multiply it by 20 for each person to get the true picture. If that's true there are a lot of Razorback fans unhappy with Broyles and Nutt. If they were dishonest in any way recruiting Malzahn and the others, they need a ticket out of town. Integrity is important for future recruiting. I tend to believe misrepresnetaions were made whether intentional or not. "
Hogz wrote on Jan 18, 2007 2:45 AM:
" You people are incredible. So many of you judge the Springdale kids not knowing a thing about them other than the media spin from Broyles and Nutt. Nutt is a mediocre coach who can't recruit his own state and now has the support of no more than 30% of the state and that is best case. When you lose 7 of the top 10 in state recruits it is time to hitch up your wagon and head elsewhere. Gus Malzahn is regarded in the highest by almost every high school coach in Arkansas. The way he was treated will kill our recruiting in this state. "

In light of the events in Fayetteville they agree with HIS decision but they are grieving the loss of not getting a chance to be close to his college football experience. Those sane and supportive parents out there will understand how they feel. Before the events transpired...he was HERE!!! "
Jimmie W. Kersh from Fort Smith wrote on Jan 18, 2007 9:23 AM:
" Mr. Ziemba, I am proud for you to remain in the SEC, the toughest football league in America. Does anyone remember the "stated" reason Lou Holtz was fired? He lost three in-state recruits. That was the reason given by Frank for firing Lou. Now 5 of the top 8 in-state recruits are leaving the state this year. I do not think they are all from Springdale.
The top 2 in-state recruits from last year are also at other schools now. Why are 7 of the top 10 in-state recruits over the last two years never going to play for the razorbacks? What ever happened to "building a fence" around the in-state recruits and signing them no matter what? "

" Oh, I support the team and the players. I feel bad for them through all of this mess. WHAT I DON'T AND CAN NO LONGER SUPPORT IS HOUSTON NUTT AND FRANK BROYLES. The sooner they are gone, the better off this program will be.
To those players and the team. We wish you the best and will always pull for you. Please don't let our frustrations and urgency to replace HDN and Broyles reflect that we feel that way about you as players or young men. It's only your leaders that we are upset with. "
HOGMAN FAN wrote on Jan 18, 2007 9:57 AM:
" Losing another top notch recruit in Ziemba will not hurt next season but it certainly will be felt the following years. He could have developed into another great lineman. it is a shame that Arkansas is thought of so poorly that the young man left the state..sounds familiar though...Tennessee has taken a number from Arkansas along with USC, auburn. With the negative publicity against the UA now including the negative ad against Broyles and Nutt in today's DemoZette, the noose is tightening. In this case Nutt can't blame the NCAA investigation for future failures or anything but himself for losing instate recruits. One thing is for sure!!! If Arkansas loses in state recruits, we will not be a winning program. The ten wins this year will not happen again any time soon. Look to lose to Bama next year because their coach can STOP a one dimensional offense with absolutely no threat of a pass. Ole Miss will be able to stop our weak passing game. Their coordinator and the rest of the SEC will have all off season to stop the Wildcat. They will do it! We will lose to Tenn, SC. We will qualify for the Liberty Bowl but goodbye Heisman with a mediocre record. "

" To Lee Zimba – you do not know me or me you, but it is obvious you are one of the premiere players in the great state of Arkansas and nation. This is my take on your situation and the events on the hill. In a previous story http://www.nwaonline.net/articles/2007/01/06/sports/010607emfingersider.txt
The story quoted you as saying the following: Ziemba said he got plenty of advice from some fellow teammates this week. Three players -- Grant Cook, Seth Oxner and Grant Freeman -- all played on the West offensive front and gave the Rogers player plenty of advice.
"They all told me they wanted me to go to Arkansas," Ziemba said.
Freeman, of Paris, played tight end Friday, and said he talked with Ziemba often about picking Arkansas.
"We have been talking all week about that," Freeman said. "It was great to play with the other guys (Cook and Oxner) and it would be great if Lee joined us."
Leaving friends are one of the hardest things to do; leaving them at home (Arkansas) while you go out of state is just not right. You will be thinking of this all the time, wondering if you had gone to Arkansas, been involved with guys you really like. If you stay where your friends are and with the same likes and dislikes. You did think of the reason why you guys got along so well, right?? good Friends!! Razorbacks need you; give Coach Lee a chance, be patience go Razorbacks!! "

" I understand the frustration of losing talent to out of state teams, but it happens to every state including ours. Sometimes, recruits just want a different atmosphere than the one they are used to. At least he is still going to play football with someone with Arkansas ties. If y'all have forgotten, Coach Tuberville is an Arkansas native. "

" Okay, let's see here. We've lost 5 or 6 of the top 8 recruits in the state to other schools. Mitch & Gus have left the school. For everyone who complains about the Springdale kids & Gus, their hiring and signings generated more excitement in the Hog program than anything I can remember in my memory. That coupled with the 10 win season this year really had everyone pumped up! Now this! What's next? Yes, we still have McFadden and Jones, but what about after next season when they both declare for the NFL draft? Then what? David Lee has been here TWICE already and what was gained from that? ONCE WAS FOR KEN HATFIELD in the SWC days! And as for Broderick Green, who said in an interview that UA was the 11th or 12th school to contact him, Otis Kirk said on Sports Rap that Danny Nutt had another running back listed higher than Green. Hmmm, USC went after him and he signed. USC, who's won national championships under Carroll and 2 consecutive Heismans didn't obviously didn't rate that RB higher, but a Nutt did. Interesting. "
Tough Week wrote on Jan 18, 2007 12:47 PM:
" Recruiting is not an exact science. DMac was not highly recruited but look at him today. I agree with a previous writer that the hiring of a rehashed coach who can't stay in a job is not the best thing. The up side is he can teach fundamental skills to QBs. It should not take too long to teach passing techniques because we won't need them in this antiquated warn out offense. We need to send our offensive staff to one of the academies to learn how not to move the football in the SEC. The wildcat worked some this year until they figures it out the last three. One problem I have always had is the Nutt coaching staff has NEVER OUTSCHEMED ANYBODY. We might outathlete certain teams but when we play the Spurriers, Richts, Sabans, etc., we cannot beat them without better athletes. We only beat Saban when he first got there with the Miracle of Markham. We are outcoached all the time with a Nutt offense! "

Hog fans saw photos of the van after the buring and many made contributions to repair it. It is my opinion that Hog fans are the best fans in the SEC.
I want to thank all the Hog fans for their support.
We look forward to the trip to Fayetteville this season with the repaired Tigertail van.
Thanks to all Razorback fans, "GO HOGS"
Just a note for those who dislike Frank Broyles. He called me when he found out about the buring of the van and offered to pay for the repairs. He is a true gentleman.
The van was also severely damaged at LSU in 2001. Not a single LSU van offered support. Actually many LSU found it funny that the van was burned.
The LSU police actually caught the burners and released them without charges.
Again, thank God for Razorback fans.

In fact two of the three have won National Championships. No SEC Championships in the nine years under Nutt. When are you people going to realize that he is not going to get us an SEC Championship, much less to the National Championship game? Zero SEC titles in nine years. All you Razorback fans need to demand more of the program than this. To me, 9, 10, or 11 wins is not acceptable if you can't WIN THE SEC CHAMPIONSHIP AT LEAST ONCE EVERY NINE YEARS. I know, same as what everyone else is saying "Wait till next year". My comeback, "Keep waiting nine more years". C'mon fans, wake up and open your eyes. "
