Dont read into it much cause he wasnt talking about Jerrell. And yes he is not coming to AU.

Do we actually know who DK was referring to in the regrets department? No one wants to name names, but I'd love to hear where the recruits that are
regretful ended up signing their LOI's. That would suffice without giving away too much info.

Rumor I hear is | ||

Antoine McClain going to Clemson and not bama.

I couldn't completely guarantee my son would sign with Auburn, and he is as staunch a Tiger fan as one can be. With Dre', he has a legitimate chance
of going to USC, because his family isn't pressuring him to go to any particular school. He also has a few things in his favor that make going to school
that far away less of a problem than other kids in his position. UA isn't his favorite school, and he would ONLY sign with them if the USC deal doesn't
work out. It really is that simple. He will not attend Auburn, and that is as certain as it can be at this time. I think Auburn knows this, as TM pointed this
fact out as well.

Ok guys, this isnt a poke at you post. I do not claim to be a UA insider at all, I am just a slightly above mid level Tide Pride member. I do know some guys
thru business that are A club. Again, this is not gospel at all.
But a question was asked about how much influence Harris would have on Dre coming to UA. The answer was, "the better question would be, how much influence did Dre have on Jerrell coming to UA." As far as UA buying Harris, get off the dang grassy knoll, you are gonna roll down that hill and get run over by a truck one day. UA, after what we have been thru, is cleaner than the barn. As far as USC is concerned, that situation could blow at any time. When ESPN gets on board and the media starts pushing, the Nazis can just ignore it so long. |

The kid just likes USC | ||

Sometimes that's all there is to it. BTW Silver, Saban cuts it close on infractions. He doesn't think twice about risking secondary violations and self
reporting if he thinks he is gonna get caught. As long as they're secondary and self reported, nothing will happen. Hardly grassy knoll stuff. As far as
USC is concerned, the NCAA won't touch 'em. The NCAA is now a pretty gutless group. They aren't gonna take anybody down because of the potential
for lawsuits(thanks Bama), and lost revenue. Short of overwhelming proof of academic fraud, and or, recruiting violations, the NCAA isn't going after
anybody. The conferences now have more power than the NCAA, at least where football is concerned, but the NCAA will flex it's muscle in other sports. I
don't like Saban, he's a poor x's and o's coach, but a great motivator. He is also extremely pushy, insecure, and classless. Sounds like the
average bammer to me, but these qualities make him a good recruiter, because he won't hesitate to go negative regarding his rivals, and pressuring kids to
commit. Saban, like the old guard in T-Town, will always try to think of ways around the rules, they have no honor and view the rules to be in place to aid
lazy coaches, instead of reigning in the overaggressive ones. On a level playing field, neither Saban, nor UA, can compete anymore. This fact has been proved
over the last 25 years.

How can McClain not going to bama be it... | ||
|
didn't Saban try to pressure him into a commit and he didn't want to then. Was Clemson pressuring him?

Figures, they use the Dre influence on Jerrel BS. I've heard that one a few times, and it makes me
just as much every time.
