I think we completely agree on the Foster situation

Yes want him.
Yes worried about his behavior.
It's a risk I would take.
Kick him out if he can't get his act together.

I want Foster because our alternative is Jake Holland.
Or more likely it's Cassanova McKinzey.
Either way, Foster could come in and contribute/have an impact immediately at Auburn.

Part of me hopes he ends up at JUCO no matter where he goes, just so we can go through this again

Admit it... Your body is ready for Saban.

I just can't believe any auburn fan (or bama fan) saying they don't wnat foster on the team.
Still, his antics annoy me a little and make me appreciate guys that handle the process well.

I definitely want Foster.
I believe he is announcing bama tonight though. Seems VERY likely to me.
I also still think it is not over even if he announces bama tonight.

Posted this elsewhere & it is how I feel on the situation:
There is absolutely no doubt whatsoever that Saban and Smart both have a relationship with Reuben despite all the ridiculous bullshite that has gone on. I still consider him a take only based on his ability and the way I see it is like this, he is an extremely impressionable kid with the wrong influences surrounding him. When or if he comes to Bama his environment changes and he will be surrounded by the right influences. I even believe if he ultimately chooses Auburn his environment changes. The old addage "A change of scenery will be good for him" is true in his situation. The reason why I don't consider him to be a completely boneheaded individual that will be in trouble all the time is because of the situation of having a daughter whom he loves and has decided to take care of and it takes a man to make that ultimate decision and not skip out or not be a father. You can fret about the tattoo but also keep in mind that he has a cousin who played for the Auburn Tigers who was tragically murdered and that tattoo was intended as a tribute. I for one hope Bama does land him not for Bama's sake as a team but for his, adding all these ridiculously talented 5 stars like Vanderdoes, Robinson, and Conner proves Bama will be fine without him but for his sake and his future development I seriously hope Bama land him. That is all.

I think he picks Bama and signs with Bama; although I wouldn't be surprised if he scheduled another announcement for NSD as well.

And his mom still wants him at AU and she still has to agree if he does not pick AU.
So, it is not over until the fax shows up somewhere.

Yes, I want him at Bama. I'm not worried about his character issues simply because of who our head coach is. Saban will not put up with much of his crap and will tell him to hit the road should he become a detriment to the team.
This.

I'm still not sold he's Bama bound even if he does commit to Bama tonight.
A verbal announcement is not a signature.

You'll have to catch me up about this. I only know folks in auburn's organization so but I certainly don't have the unimpeachable sources like you. And by that i mean i don't read bama message boards.
and if you are fishing/trolling or whatever you call it then yes, you caught one.
