Not gonna sound like some fans of Bama and others when this happens. Would love to have him at Bama but if he decides its not right for him, then good luck to him. Big decision for these kids.

I will have to go back and look but I remember him not right on Brown until after others and the other 2 I never saw anyone in the end say we get them.
Bone said there was a better chance of Brown being in the class than Ramsey at a time when everyone including BOL had Ramsey going to Bama and Brown as a LSU-A&M battle. Pretty much everyone said WTF at the time but it turned out to be money.
Everyone had Elam going UK in the days leading up to his announcement but that morning BOL reported that Bama was in good shape according to a source. A couple other lesser recruiting sites piggytailed with similar reports. Bone was asked about the reports but stuck to his guns as opposed to jumping on the bandwagon as you claim he does.
He's not always right. Everyone in that business is wrong fairly often. But I'm fairly certain he does his own reporting with his own sources. And What do you know he was right on Charlot

On Dec. 28th Brown did an interview and Bone misquoted something in the interview regarding what was said about Tony's mothers preference. Bone said that his mother wanted UA, but it was taking out of context. Bone also was not saying where Brown would go. On the 30th at check in for the all star game rumors started swirling from LSU sites and other UA sites that UA was looking good and that OSU had become a big threat for UA not LSU.
In the end though it does not matter we all have a preference.

Shame on some of you Bama fans and LSU fans no different. At the beginning of his recruitment yall didn't want him.

Two points:
1. Watch this video in which TB is asked about what he said to Bone: LINK
So, he admits that Bone quoted him correctly but claims that it was out of context. Apparently "out of context" in this instance means that TB had done 8 interviews and let something slip that he didn't want made public. FTR, Tim Watts of BOL reported the same thing 2 days later: Scroll down
2. Bone stated Bama had a better chance with Brown than Tabor (not Ramsey as I stated earlier) on Dec. 6: Scroll down
I challenge you to find any recruiting analyst claiming Bama had a legitimate shot with Brown at that time. You can tell from the responses in the thread I linked how crazy of a prediction that seemed at the time.

Wait, why is this a Tony Brown thread now?
Posted on 12/9/14 at 4:03 pm to MagillaGuerilla
Since the search function sucks so much, I had to skim through about 50 pages of that thread to find what I was looking for. Some of the tangents are just crazy and there's about a 2 week period where everyone was stressed out and pissy because it looked like the class was going to suck
Every year
Every year

So his HS coach is saying he did in fact decommit and told Burton Burns that on his in home. This shite is getting ridiculous.
