Kind of funny that you left off what I said.

There is a big difference in 17 year old kids changing their minds and lying. When I was in high school I felt really sure I wanted to go into the medical field so I told UAB I was going to enroll there. As time passed my senior year I started to change my mind and decided I wanted to be a lawyer. So I told UAB I was no longer coming and went to Alabama. I did not "lie" to anyone.

Did Mike Blakely "lie" to Florida when he switched to Auburn? Hell that kid was already enrolled in classes where Florida could not possibly replace his roster spot.

And Muschamp gave him free reign to switch to another SEC school.

Must have been mutual.

How long until some Auburn fan starts stalking the kid for vehicle VIN numbers?

In the article that just came out, Yeldon said he had been questioning his committment the past couple weeks. He just told Chizik that he was solid Wednesday when he talked to him on the phone. He was also saying he was solid every chance he had this month and last. Good bit of lying, IMO. Oh well. Good luck to him at Bama. I will still question his integrity.

We need to get our shite together because Operation Red Dog 2 is on.

In all seriousness, there's no reason to have a meltdown over one recruit. Making a good hire at DC is bigger for Auburn than signing Yeldon.

If you just have a change of heart, you don't do this right before the dead period, so that the coaches can't talk to you.

Same way Auburn questioned Corey Grant's integrity. Now they love him again. Especially with Dyer and OMac on their way out MOST LIKELY.

I haven't seen anyone saying they love CG. He's just at Auburn to provide depth.

From Jason Caldwell:

I choose to believe 17-year old kids when time and time again they tell me to my face that everything is good. Now that it was shown to be a lie I'll apologize to everyone here.

Yes, Yeldon lied. It's not like Yeldon woke up this morning and changed his mind about where he wanted to go to school. This has been brewing for a while. Yeldon never even told the Auburn coaches he was considering switching. He told them he was 100% committed when we now know he was not. That is lying.

And the Blakeley situation is in no way comparable to Yeldon. Blakeley enrolled at UF before Meyer left and Muschamp didn't think he fit the new system, so he let him transfer.

It's easy to be the epitome of reason when you know you're gonna get the best recruits.
