Of the 500 players ranked in the Rivals100 for the classes of 2007 through 2011, 73 (14.6 percent) decomitted at some point during their recruitment. Of those, 62 (12.4 percent) ultimately signed with a school other than the one to which they originally committed.

Aledo, Texas, tailback Jonathan Gray, ranked 15 spots ahead of Kiel in the Rivals.com rankings, committed to Texas in April and has not wavered one bit. Gray is Dog Bites Man. Class of 2010 defensive end Chris Martin, who committed to Notre Dame, signed with Cal and then transferred to Florida all before the fall of his freshman year, is Man Bites Dog.
