This was an academic decision. Finkley wants to excel at both academics and athletics
He is a different Alabama recruit. His mother is a college professor there in the state of Alabama. Believe his father also has a professional degree
The real battle was with Michigan. The family visited both and was more comfortable with Texas.
This was why Bama was always playing from behind. This isn’t a knock against their academics because they have some decent programs.
But saying that the family who allowed him to make the decision really values academics and because of how close they are Football was behind the school itself.

I was incorrect
She isn’t a college professor but works for the local schools there in Birmingham
Nevertheless they are very educated people and are people that Birmingham should be proud about

what has happened in the last few weeks ?
Maybe you should ask the guys you pay $125 a year that ? You don't realize that the staff has a recruiting meeting every Monday at 730am ? The recruiting board changes all the time. Nobody in the football complex is loosing sleep over Finkley to Texas

I’ll never understand how people don’t know the difference between loose and lose. And of course they won’t. They’ll probably get somebody just as good. Doesn’t mean he wasn’t a take though

You are getting filtered info. Just matters who the information is filtered through
More than that this doesn’t have a thing to do with was he a take or not
He could have been #1 on the list
It was well known from the beginning that academics were at play here.
This was a decision basically about what football program gave him the chance to get a quality degree
What you are mentioning is unimportant and has nothing at all to do with his recruitment.
Like I said he could have been #1 on the list. He most likely wasn’t going to pick Alabama

If it was an academic decision then good for him.

Ya’ll my Texas rib and brisket wait is over. I don’t ever want BBQ from home again. I just sent this picture to my mama and asked her why she’s been lying to me my whole life. This is a real rib. They must be cooking the ankles in Alabama…

Bo Davis wasn’t even Finkley’s main recruiter. I respect him for wanting to get a high level education as well as play football. Wake me up when he’s actually successful at both. Especially if he wants to go into medicine. Being a football player is more than a full time job
Dreams take a long time to manifest into reality.
Dr. Adickes, Orthopedic Surgeon and former Baylor All-American and Super Bowl Champion, "fixed" my frozen shoulder prior to his surgery on my shoulder/torn labrum.
quote:
Dr. Mark Adickes, an Orthopedic surgeon serving Houston, TX & nearby areas, was raised all over the world as the son of an Army chaplain. He attended high school in Berlin and Munich, Germany and graduated from Killeen high school in central Texas where his father was stationed at Fort Hood. Dr. Adickes excelled in sports and received a football scholarship to attend Baylor University. At Baylor, he appeared in three bowl games and in his senior year he was the team captain and honored as a first-team All-American. He received a BBA in management and marketing upon his graduation from Baylor.
Football was career number one for Dr. Adickes after being drafted in the first round by both the NFL and the USFL. He played 2 years with the LA Express in the USFL protecting quarterback Steve Young, followed by four seasons with Kansas City Chiefs and three more with the Washington Redskins. His professional football career culminated with a Super Bowl Championship with the Washington Redskins.
Numerous injuries, surgeries and rehabilitations led to the conception of Dr. Mark Adickes’ second career choice as an orthopedic surgeon. He attended George Mason University in northern Virginia to complete his pre-med studies and was accepted to Harvard Medical School. Dr. Adickes medical school experience was enhanced by his selection to deliver the commencement address at graduation. He then attended an orthopedic surgery residency program at the world-famous Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. Upon completion of his orthopedic surgery residency, he was honored by being offered a fellowship position at the renowned Steadman Hawkins Clinic in Vail, CO. His fellowship included extensive training in the treatment of knee, shoulder & hip injuries.
As a Houston orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Adickes’ ultimate goal is to heal, and he approaches every patient with a curious mind and a dogged determination to achieve that goal. He often tells his patients, “I will treat your problem as if it were my own or that of a family member.” When seeking treatment from an orthopedic surgeon for an injury, one cannot ask for more.
