I still think Alabama. Credit due to AU, though, for making a strong late push.

Question is, if he commits to Alabama, is it because AU actually pulled his offer?  :poke:

I gotcha. If he signs with AU, we didn't want him anyway. So I think we all have our bases covered here.

I prefer to go with "we only offered a greyshirt anyway" line.

Speaking of which, seriously though, WR Daryl Collins should be switching from Alabama to Kentucky today. Supposedly our offer was a greyshirt, and they are offering him a full ride. At least, that's been the word the past few days anyway. Two of our greyshirts, Love and Carswell, have faxed their LOIs to Alabama already.

Very.  Look for a very uninspired "love to be a bama player" speach, written by "Peaches", and read by Calloway at some point.

Something about Calloway just doesn't sit well with me.  I mean, shouldn't the decision be his?  What kind of a father is so egotistical that he gets to decide where the kid will go to college?

I always listen to bama fan clowns..err...uhh...guardians named "Peaches" over advice from father's that actually have no affiliation with the school they're guiding their kid too.

Good comparison.  See where you got it, but it's pretty flimsy.

A guardian named Peaches, and long time bama fan steers Calloway.

A father sends his son to Auburn because of all the different things like a business decision (insert whatever rumors or whatever here).  Prior to signing, Cecil didn't have an Auburn affiliation, or steer his son to Auburn based on emotion. 

Was that really worth a "What the fuck" type question? 

Jesus.

But what if the father is steering him to AU because of something shady, and his guardian is steering him to Alabama so as to not fuck up the rest of his career if he went to AU and the shady deal came to light? But, you choose not to see it that way, because it doesn't work out for you. But you're going to come right back and say I choose to believe that because it works out for me. In the end? The kid has obviously been torn between the two, and made a decision. I don't know why it has to be made out as more than that anytime you guys lose a recruit. Same goes with our fans, too.

Okay, okay, okay...WTF ever.  They're all going where the $$$ is best anyway.  Let's not get into a Cecil/Peaches/Cam slamfest. 

I'm more concerned with the fact that with Calloway's departure, we have ONE running back signed....a position where we AIN'T rollin 5 deep.

I think that's the conventional wisdom but with a depth chart that goes:

Michael Dyer
O'Mac
Eric "One carry a season" Smith
Tre "180 lb. True Freshman" Mason

He just may have gotten a legitimate look at RB.  You get a couple of dings, sprains or fractured colons in this group and Auburn is in deep shit.

Exactly, this could be the biggest signing day switch that we have ever pulled off.  I know it stings to lose out an RB, but with the OL class we just pulled, that should open up the eyes of the 2012 recruits and there are some beast coming out of that class at RB.

Gotta say I have gone back through the years looking at past OL that we have recruited in a single year and I cannot find a class that seems to compare to what we think we are getting in this class.
