Yea, I am sure Petey knew he would be forced to greyshirt when he signed his LOI in February. Spin it Bammers, that's what you do.
No spin needed, he knew well before the commitment. That's how far the distance is between the two programs at this point.
The illustration couldn't be made better with the recruitment of Owens. If Saban were the coach at Auburn, he would have been committed to Auburn months ago.

If you didn't want him to redshirt, then maybe Auburn should have gotten a coach good enough to get him to go to the school that his brother already attends!!! seems like that was too difficult for Chiznik.

Ex-Hawk Petey Smith likely to 'grayshirt' for Alabama in '09
Don't be shocked if former Armwood all-state linebacker Petey Smith doesn't suit up for the University of Alabama this fall.
Fact is, Hawks coach Sean Callahan said, that has been the plan all along.
Smith was among four members of the Crimson Tide's incoming freshman class not on the team's initial 105-man roster when Alabama reported for fall camp Wednesday. Smith is expected to "grayshirt," meaning he wouldn't enroll until January so his signing doesn't count against the current signing class...
Callahan, reached Thursday, said Smith's grayshirt is not academic-related.
"That was always (the plan) because of (Alabama's) needs," Callahan said. "Petey always knew he was going in January from Day One and he was fine with that, but he was up there the whole summer working out."
