West Coast OL Raymond Pulido decommits from Alabama

Apple Valley (Calif.) offensive lineman Raymond Pulido has backed off his pledge to the Crimson Tide ahead of Early Signing Day, BamaOnLine has confirmed. BOL is told this does not come as a surprise to the UA staff, as Pulido is simply opting to stay closer to home on the West Coast.

"I love how passionate he is about his players, as if they are his own kids and he really understands when tough love is necessary," Pulido said when he originally committed to the program over schools like UCLA, Louisville, and others.

The 6-foot-6, 345-pounder was one of five offensive lineman committed to the program. That number now goes down to four, however, Bama is trending up for five-star offensive tackle and Iowa commit Kadyn Proctor after a weekend visit.

Update: Pulido intends to sign with Arizona on Dec. 21.

Proctor for Pulido... That's what I was thinking.

LOL, if he's already saying he's signing with AZ, then that line was cut well before today.

So does the staff tell kids they will take their commitment ”but if…”

I think this was just wanting to be closer to home sometimes the lights of Bama are alluring but when rubber meets the road they just wanna stay near family

Yep. It's one of the best hats I've ever had...going against some pretty strong competition. Hell, wearing it now. I've got four from Tommy and they don't wear as well.
