I remember when I used to be able to take a nice quite drive, on some back roads, to get to PCA. But Prattville had to go and "try" to be like everyone else. Ruined, and torn up lands, once beautiful.

Can not be true because Dallas in the other thread said they were all flipping today and poor little forever gator said no one wants to play with UA anymore. I am so confused.

Must be fake news.

It took y’all stealing our dline coach for it to happen.

I’m aware, but every indication was he was flipping until Baker left.

He didn’t sign in December did he?

No he didn’t. But neither did Pickering. But that was uncouth to suggest he was waivering.

In reality Young and Pickering handled it well. Weren’t ready to sign. Took some visits and made sure. Didn’t make it dramatic.

So we get a better coach and keep this player committed? Sounds like a win-win.

That’s not what y’all were saying in the pickering thread.

Y’all said he wasn’t really commited and was a drama queen. Which is it?

Young was trending in iur direction, would he have flipped if Baker stayed? Who know, it was looking that way.

Doesn’t matter now tho, Baker going to y’all killed that happening.

That road was dangerous as frick. They made the right decision to upgrade. It also helps relieve pressure on Cobbs Ford Rd.

Granted, there was that one blind spot, near the houses; of all places to build. Don't go blaming the roads, when the idiots that built those homes are the problem. rational, though, to blame an inanimate object.

Says every school that Young visited. Young explored his in-state options and chose to stick with his commitment. What are you upset about?

The roads were absolutely the problem. There were issues with sight distances around the crests, blind curves (which had frick all to do with houses), <11' lanes, no paved shoulders, and didn't even have safety edges on the edge of pavement. You're out of your depth here.
