And comparing this situation to John Parker Wilson is laughable. JPW committed at a time when bama had to beg players to come. The talent competition on campus is no comparison. The kid should go to a school who wants him - which happens to be every school in america except bama.

JPW actually originally committed in the 2004 class. Which was a solid class that set the foundation to recovering from sanctions.
And I kind of commend the guy for sticking to his guns to attend the school he wanted to. Even if it's a delayed enrollment. Too many people want immediate satisfaction these days.

You are melting hard. What about the guy that's about to be a two year starter at center, Bradley Bozeman. Is that comparable? Bozeman could've played at several other SEC schools right away. One of the strongest kids on our team and was great friends with Reuben Foster coming out of high school. He chose to grayshirt at Alabama instead. This is a lifetime decision, not a 4 year decision. Parks wants to play at Alabama and he's willing to go the extra mile to do so. He wasn't playing next season anyway, how you can call a kid stupid for going where he wants to go is beyond me.

And during a time we had to beg players to come he STILL took a greyshirt. Both are greyshirts. At the end of the day, it is a representation of where he is needed.
Kid didn't have to take it. He was inundated with calls from AU, Baylor, Miami, UGA, and more today. He had offers from all over, including Florida. He had choices and, for whatever reason, he chose a Bama greyshirt. Seems like he really wanted to be at Bama.
