Bama commit Stephen Roberts is at the scrimmage today
Maybe the scrimmage will be exciting enough to make him flip.

-Auburn is done with RB Darrell Williams from Louisiana as the staff promised Roc we are done at RB with him and Pettway (That fricker better stick!)



hope this doesn't bit us in the arse. I would be totally fine with roc and pettway though.

Yep. I thought that would be clear since I was just talking about Darrel Williams. Common sense would tell you Bama looked into Tre and his grades a long time ago.

Before Darrell Williams entered the picture, we seemed fine with just Pettway if Roc went to Bama. So I don't think it's that big of a risk,

True, but I didn't get how Bama looking into Darrel's transcripts would be relevant since you had just stated we were no longer recruiting him

Agreed. I just don't like the idea of a kid likely coercing a promise but not holding up his end of the deal.

I considered it relevent because it may mean Bama is preparing to move on from Roc as a back up plan to Fournette.

I don't want Darrel anyway. He doesn't look that good to me. If Roc flips, I'd rather just try to get an elite RB next year

Hoke thinks there is a descent chance we flip Stephen Roberts.

I think it will have more Bama finding a CB they like better than him flipping. He has some deep Bama ties.

Not as deep as Marlon Humphrey...

No but he's not the x factor. The x factor is if they take another CB with Humphrey like Davlon Hall. Roberts already knew Humphrey was a given when he committed.

Has anyone with actual knowledge of the situation given any indication as to what Clark is thinking?

To my knowledge nobody has actual knowledge. He has kept this very close to the vest.

He told me who he was picking the other day but made me pinky swear not to tell until after he announces. So when he announces I will come in to confirm.
