Bo sets his official visit

I'm gonna stay pessimistic on this one. I think he just wants to get his way with Satan. We're just a tool.

Though, it is not an off the wall situation. We did take Clinton Portis from Gainesville when the ball coach wanted him at CB. I just don't have any faith in us with big time recruits at this point. I need to see some success late in the game before I can get excited.
How is visiting UM going to force Saban to play him at RB? There's no contract for that sort of thing. Bo probably doesn't trust that he'll really get what he wants at bama even if Saban changes course suddenly.

A contract doesn't have to be in writing to be enforceable. A promise is a contract. All Saban has to say is, "If you come here to play football, I promise you will play running back." If Bo accepts, then a contract is formed. It's not a gratuitous promise. Bo confers a benefit to Saban in the form of his promise to play for Alabama in exchange for the promise that he will play running back.

The agreement was bargained for.

L1?

Don't give me nightmares

We getting Bo and I will forgive Golden.

Forgive him for what?

Homeboy has a lot to be forgiven for....will take more than landing one 5 star recruit to fix that.

Or are we forgetting how loaded South Florida was this year and just how many elite players from South Florida we are currently tabbed to strike out on.

Should we mention the perpetual forgiveness needed for fielding probably the worst defense in the history of the school?

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. You act like you're perfect.

Al is trying to reel in a real difference maker, and you're acting like some sort of back alley priest talking about forgiveness. Al doesn't need your forgiveness; he needs some understanding.
 
I would agree we have little chance, but, the fact he took an unofficial last weekend and is coming back for an OV means something. you don't do that if you are just coming for the free trip. he would have just waited for the free trip.
 
I would give us about a 5% chance here. I think its more than just a pure free trip. Two weeks in a row, including having come down on the OV. Would take a miracle to flip him, but I suspect the depth chart here and possiblity of RB and early playing time is something gnawing at his head a bit. Very little chance, but never say never.

Thank you for that lesson on contracts. I was unaware of the intricacies of how they are formed.

I'll stay tuned for the enforcement of the contract lecture.

Man, you're douche. You attack one part of my comment and when I defend myself you all of a sudden become facetious instead of continuing the conversation. You could have called me out on many points but instead you crawled into your shell. That weak.

Everyone knows that HC's have complete autonomy over these kids once they put pen to paper. Players' only remedy is transfer, which is a huge detriment to them at the end of the day. Saban can tell him whatever he wants to hear, just to get him in the door.

And who cares if there's a contract available or not? The only thing that matters is what Bo thinks. He might think he's doing something productive, when he's really not. He a kid.

Lane ain't coming, bank on that. He also hasn't even taken his tests yet.

Bo on the other hand......we have a nice O-line haul this cycle. Couple that with he'll be behind Yeldon, Drake and Derrick Henry next year.....if Bama even puts him at RB. We have a chance, a slim one, but a chance.

Surely was not for lack of trying, this yr or even last. he recruited the sheeeeiiitt out of those guys and they chose else where for whatever reason.

It is possible...they have 3 big backs NOW who are going to be getting a ton of carries in 2014.

IMO, TJ Yeldon will leave after this season. He will 100% be the starter in 2014 barring injury. He is a big time back.

Kenyan Drake is another big back, he will be a junior.

Derrick Henry is a tremendous back and will be a sophomore, he averaged 10+ YPC as a true freshman.

Those are the three BIG backs at Bama already and all will be here in 2014. Drake (likely) and Henry will be there in 2015.

Then there is Dee Hart, Altee Tenpenny and Tyren Jones. Altee Tenpenny is a big back but was a true freshman. Tyren redshirted but he was not a big back. Dee Hart is a smaller back as well.
