I get it... But the staff is comfortable with how he's handling it... and honestly, if he wants to take a few visits and enjoy himself and sign on his birthday, he's earned that IMO.
Agreed! If Saban and staff were worried, they would put the full court press for his signature next week!!

Blocking, banning...not my thing with anyone. There is a sensitive, dramatic side to her personality.
She's been a member on TI for quite a while. I'd have to get a sub and scroll through posts to remember what her username is over there.
The point was missed, I fear. Look at his dad posting to several different networks/outlets/reporters. It's a "smoke/fire" thing.

He can commit, but he can't sign.
Is this an age thing? Why can't he sign in the early signing period?

He hasn't completed schoolwork.
I guess with him reclassifiying this is the issue?

Not eligible until Feb
No way to complete 2 years of schooling (11 and12) in fall term if HS.
I'm leaving open the possibility that my info is wrong here, but I'm pretty sure Williams could sign early if he wanted, he just can't enroll early. Not that it really matters, because he isn't.
On another note though, if you're the type that tends to worry and get worked up about every story and rumor that bubbles up on a key recruit like this, I'd suggest enforcing your own blackout coverage on him until he finally puts pen to paper.

I've been wrong before, and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night, but isn't he waiting till 9 Feb. to sign because that's his birthday?
Yes.

He can't sign until he graduates and presents the institution with his high school transcript since that won't happen until after the early signing period. He likely can't sign until NSD anyways
May be different in other sports, but my niece reclassified and has signed a softball scholarship. She signed and is reporting before she graduates. She will be considered “dual enrolled” until summer semester next year. Yet she will be attending only college and playing this coming season. Kinda weird.

It is only requirements for Football, other sports do not have these requirements for some reason.

We've had people who signed in December only to graduate in May. We had few that did that last year

Weird, according to the rules I read, it says clearly that they must have their High School Transcript, and Enter the NCAA Financial Aid information and be approved before they can sign-up for a NLI and sign one. I assumed it meant completed high school transcript maybe it just means any transcript period. Even if it's not finished.
