He has a legit complaint...he committed early and now has to start from scratch bc they basically pulled his offer with only a couple days to go....

Bama is used to just steamrolling kids' hopes and dreams. It's all about them - never about the player.

I think he's more mad at the fact that they wasted his time. If you're loaded at LB and had much higher targets then why would you offer him? Then why wait until signing day is near and hardly give him anytime to inform other schools and make a better decision? Now I'm sure some of his previous suitors backed off and gave up on trying to get him.

Double Downs's post is proof that Bama fans are some of the most egotistical pricks ever to walk this earth.

No I think he just expects to have a scholarship not be their #1 LB. He was basically informed a couple days before signing day that he no longer had a scholarship offer i.e. Gray shirt. That's BS unless they were clear with him from the start that this could be a possibility.

DoubleDown is probably the fat Bama fan at WalMart doing hover hands on the Championship trophy while wearing a personalized jersey.

I do feel sorry for the guy, but Saban has been known to do this, so the kid should've known it was possible. Doesn't make it any less bad, but Saban runs his program his way, and we all know grayshirting is sometimes part of it.

Small and white, doesn't really fit the mold of an Alabama LB

In all honesty, I don't know why any recruits commit to Alabama before NSD, because this happens far more often then it should.

Id say that Ags would have taken him, but we already have a 3* white linebacker that probably won't amount to anything.

Who also happens to be named Riley.

John 31:6 must be the answer.
