🏈 Foster de-commits.

[bcracker]

al.com is reporting Foster has decommited from Auburn. He says he wants to go with Trooper if he is picked up elsewhere.

 

[tidentrue]

I don't want him

What an idiot. Not sure if I even want this kid. If he did end up at Bama, though, I imagine CNS would turn him around .. I feel like this program forces immature players to man up.

Apparently he is looking at Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Washington and Miami, but is leading towards Alabama.

On Trooper: "In an interview with ESPN earlier this week, Foster said 'If Trooper Taylor stays at Auburn, I am all in. If he goes, I will see where he goes too. I just need to see where he ends up. If he goes to another school, I will go there. Hopefully that school will want me too because I would love to follow him.'"

I don't want him

His recruitment hasn't set well with me. But, he wouldn't be playing for me. Then there's that thing about people being paid to judge these things, ya know?

FWIW, Kirby visited him yesterday.

I read earlier, somewhere, Lawson wasn't even returning phone calls from their staff. That's not a shocker. Ole Miss has had his number for a bit now.

I still expect Liner to de-commit as well. And, with all the things he was involved with the last year his actions haven't set well with me either. But, he wont' be playing for me. Then there's that thing about...

I read the comment from Foster in regards to Trooper Taylor and my first thought was,"I guess you don't want to go play college football!" Foster will need to do some growing up and Liner as well. I'd like to see them both in Crimson to be honest. Lawson would be another but it does look like Ole Miss will get him and Nkemdiche. Another thing with Foster that irks me is that ugly ass tattoo that he got!! We'll have to pass the plate around to get a collection to get that shit corrected!!

I remember googling Auburn the other day (for another post) and one of the images that showed up on the first page was of him and his tattoo, along with some little girl (pretty sure it's his daughter) decked out in Auburn gear. Just tried it again for "alabama foster" and pictures of him with Alabama gloves and the logo show up haha :lance:

Sounds like a power play by he and Trooper to assure Trooper stays at Auburn to me...

Lord I would hate to be an Auburn fan!

 

[ElephantStomp]

He wouldn't be playing for me, but I don't want him. Him and his ugly azz tattoo can go someplace else. I haven't liked his recruitment from day one, but like Terry he wouldn't be playing for me.

I think we could several of their recruits decommitt and give us a look, but not sure I want any of them, but again like with Terry they wouldn't be playing for me.

 

[JoshB]

This guy is unreal. I just hope we can pull in one of them D-Lineman (Lawson or Liner).

I read the comment on Trooper as well and my first thought was, "wow, ole Troopah must have promised him some serious stuff for him to be that committed to Trooper." I have always been suspicious of Trooper's tactics - as have many people - and some things just don't add up. Not sure if I want the kid, but if anyone could straighten him out, it would be CNS and CKS.

Good points, Terry. I don't pretend to know the background on these players like the staff does, but I've been pleased these last few years with the players they sign. In other words, off the top of my head, I don't remember thinking "I wish we hadn't signed so-and-so. He doesn't seem like he's the type of player Bama should have playing." I think Saban and company have a high standard that they expect players to meet. At this point I'm perfectly content letting them do their job and letting me not worry about it.

We're in good hands. It's great to be a Bama fan.

Told ya. From the Chizik fired thread....

Reuben Foster is going to end up playing for someone else with an AU tattoo on his arm, isn’t he? And I bet Tracy Wolfson will telling us about it a million times over the next four years.

 

[BamaFan615]

^^ Who would have known...Randy's a psychic! :biggrin_blue::biggrin_blue:

I kid. I kid.

I know, I'm a smart ass. Seriously though, it sounds like this guy probably should have thought about that tattoo ahead of time and gotten a picture of Trooper's face instead.

 

[ElephantStomp]

A bit off subject, but what's the likelihood that Altee switches to Arky?

Liner is ours unless he's playing us.

Always been a possibility. I figure it will be a fight to keep him.

Yeah really, that's my thought when reading it, too. Granted, I don't know much about the recruiting process, but what exactly would've had to transpire to make him feel as though his college football career is contingent upon Trooper Taylor and his job situation? I just don't understand where this whole "follow you to the ends of the earth" thing is coming from.

 

[bamadezz]

He'll be a perfect fit at thUGA. Although if he's planning on following the towel spinner, who knows where the kid will end up? :headscratch:

 

[PhillyGirl]

Part of me wants him to commit to Bama again. Then CNS can kick his ass til he mans up. If he got an attitude adjustment he'd be a great player. But until then I don't really want him ..
