whats been going on with Rico? I thought he would be rated higher than he is. Is it a camp attendance issue or has there been something else go on with him. I remember this time last year he was being considered as a top target for Bama in '15.

He is very good. I wouldn't worry about his ranking at this point. He is going to be a beast.

He broke his ankle playing basketball. I don't know if that was the specific reason.

I'd rather him go ahead to Bama if he just plans of flipping anyway. Don't want to waste time on a guy that you have to worry about flipping constantly. Let him go and find another corner.


Change a couple of words and this is exactly how Bama fans feel about Ledbetter.

I thought it was strange when Rico committed to UGA. He visited us a lot before committing to Pruitt on the spot.

That is true and I like the fact that Rico went ahead and made it known early. This gives us plenty of time to feel that gap. Hell of a lot better than a signing day flop. I think that says a lot about him as a person. Seems like a standup guy and I wish him the best at Bama.

@AndrewJBone 1m
An 'official' announcement will happen later today. I can now confirm four-star DB Rico McGraw has flipped from #UGA to #Alabama @TideSports

UGA was behind the 8 ball from the start, his mom did not want him there at any point. Shes the one who probably instigated the flip, told the Bama staff to keep on calling when he committed to UGA.

Taking the decision out of his hands, which is why it's being reported he's torn. Which is kinda ....ehhh.


Based on the BOL article, it sounds like mom and dad pushed him to make the jump. Seems that they panicked and didn't want to play the "trust in pruitt" game and instead are hedging their bets on future nfl success on Bama producing highly drafted CBs.

Can't say that I blame them. I wish him the best. He won't flip again so good luck Mr Rico. Sorry it didn't work out.

Well he looks good in the video. Nice agility and plays with good physicality. Seems to have good instincts.

Yeah, it is all her, pretty low on mom's part because Rico wants to play for Pruitt. Just read the article Boner just put out and it's pretty clear who's decision this really was.

Oh well, frick him and frick her. Good luck in T-Town, he is going to need it with that depth, mom made a bad decision for her son.
