Do kids who flip-flop with their verbals pan out?

For Bama, these flippers come to mind:
Brent Calloway - Flipped from AU with the help of Peaches. Kicked off team. Apparently tried to play rugby professionally, but failed that too. LINK

Reuben Foster - Flipped from AU due - most likely - to the firing of Trooper & pals. Special teams hero. Special Ed hero.

TJ Yeldon - Was really pretty average given the teams he was on. Fumbled at the most inopportune times. Made LSU fans cry...literally.

What other flip-flop busts am I missing?

Was Dee Liner an AU commit?

To answer your question, Dalvin Cook of FSU did pretty well last year.

Da'Rick Rogers - Flipped from UGA... was a beast but off the field problems got a hold of him.

Nu'Keese Richardson - Flipped from UF... everyone knows that story.

I'm not sure if this could really be considered a flip in the traditional sense. He said AU on TV, but wanted to take it back immediately.

Dante Fowler flipped to UF, highly likely first rounder
CJ Spiller flipped to Clemson, first rounder

For the last two years he has been starting. One of the bright spots for 2013, and there were not many for the Gators.

He was the #2 back in his class, #28 player overall.

He had 2 1000 yard seasons, 1 979 yard season, 37 TDs sharing time with Eddie Lacy and Derek Henry. And the following performances in big games

2012 SECCG vs UGA : 25 carries, 153 yards, 1 TD
2013 BCS Title game vs ND : 21 carries, 108 yards, 1 TD
2013 vs LSU : 25 carries, 133 yards, 2 TD
2013 @ Auburn : 26 carries, 141 yards, 1 TD
2014 @ Ole Miss : 20 carries, 123 yards
2014 vs Auburn : 19 carries, 127 yards, 2 TD
2014 SECCG : 14 carries, 47 yards, 2 TDs


What exactly was he hyped to be? Adrian Peterson?
