lutzcammed 471 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I've given up on him. Waiting for months that he was gonna pop and we know that hasn't happened. If he really wanted to go to Auburn he would be helping us recruit allready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,365 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I don't understand our fan base at times. He seems to be leaning to Auburn but has not pulled the trigger which seems to have upset some fans. He has done nothing wrong. He is just exploring his options. I hope he signs with us but if not we will get another rb. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In today's recruiting world "Committed" means nothing more than "today's favorite that could change at any time." It's sad, but that's how it is. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIL has changed the game and more players are changing after commitment, but great majority stay with original commitment. So it is still better to get a commitment then trying to get a player to switch. Edited March 27 by AuburnNTexas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, even though the commitment may not stick, it may influence other highly rated players to take a closer look at Auburn. They may think "if it's good enough for Alvin it may be good enough for me too". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s exactly what Simon and Theodore said when Alvin committed to Dave. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aucanucktiger 1,923 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 One if the major things I still dont understand about NIL is the agreement phase. We pay you blah blah $$$ and you agree (contract) to play for us. After your agreement we at least somewhat back off recruiting your position because you will fill that need/position. You then decommit after agreement, especially late in the cycle, we're at least partially screwed. Right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hope that no school pays much in NIL until the prospect has at least signed and enrolled in classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
