Irv Smith committed to Bama.  He cancelled his in home with Charlie.  I guess that's 1 less silent commit they need to make room for. 

No commitment yet.

Must be grades or test scores. Good luck J Carr.

Lets not speculate on that like that. Maybe it was just his decision....

Sorry for the assumptions. It's just odd decommitting from a D-1 school and going the JC route. Maybe he wants to put on some weight and try for a better, bigger school. Who knows. Again, good luck J Carr.

Maybe

Well I talked to Justin a while ago and I could not respect a high school player more right now than what I do for Carr. The story will be up on panews.com here in a bit. 

As I wrote last Sunday, remember...these are high school kids making very adult decisions and it is the one time they make the call where they play.

Interested in seeing the story. It sounds like it must not mesh with what I'm hearing. Please update when it's available.

Will do.

If you don't hear from me check tonight around 10 because I do have to leave for basketball here shortly and I am not sure my sports editor will get to editing it before we leave for the games.

Psst... Hey aggyarewe... What's this mean?

As a dad that went through a recruiting period with my son - only a 2 Star - but still recruited by LA. Tech and some other smaller D1 schools - I can tell you I feel for these 17 and 18 year olds that are making one of the most important decisions on their future and the pressure that the coaches and recruiters put on them is immense.  Many I feel make the wrong decision for them but the way the NCAA is it is hard to change without a major penalty.

Patrick's gonna be fine whatever he chooses... He seems like the type of guy that's gonna do big things. Nicely put, OT.

Very stressful, especially for kids that have been told their whole life to never tell adults no and to respect their elders. I don't fault the college coaches at all btw. It's a flawed process created by the NCAA that pays a LOT of grown men that work for them LOTS of money. They have no incentive to make it better.

Ags are about to lose 4* DE to OU according to sources.  Mark Jackson is supposed to announce his commitment/flip at 5 today.  

[Whoopi Goldberg's Lips]

This is one I'd actually rather see y'all keep.  I'd rather him be in the $EC than have to deal with him at blowU.

Looch just confirmed it...by jumping the gun and reporting it before the kid had a chance to.
