For what it's worth, I have a good friend who coaches at Thompson High School (where Taulia goes) and he told me from the beginning that Taulia does not want to go the same school as Tua. He was shocked when he committed to Alabama and that he felt like it wouldn't stick. Taulia even went to a different high school in Hawaii than Tua so he didn't have to sit behind him and so he could make his own path instead of following behind Tua” Apparently he will be in Knox tonight after he camps at Auburn. Hmmm the plot thickens. I think he ends up a VOL.

Taulia is 100% going to Bama, and he has absolutely no say in the matter.

Bama paid the parents handsomely for the guaranteed signatures of both sons over a year and a half ago.

There are Bama posters on this very forum (cough, remaster, cough) who know exactly how much their family was paid.

It’s the Kouandjio situation all over again.

And if he doesn't what recourse does Bama have, call the NCAA and complain?

That's like a crackhead calling the cops to say he was sold fake crack.

It's mind boggling that people think the only reason anybody would sign with Bama is because they're paid. Every other school has a better pitch than "Come play for the greatest coach of all time, be in the playoffs every season, and go to the NFL"... right?

If Bama is the only team paying these kids, they'd win every game by 80 because they'd just sign everybody.
