The Bodda Getta

It's one of the craziest things I've seen covering recruiting.

Well maybe the FBI needs to look into his Father and what the church ends up with if he goes to uat ! (just kidding)

What saddens me is that his own guardians are not backing his decision. They should be looking out for his best interest whether he wants to go to Auburn, Alabama or any other school that he feels most comfortable being at the next four years. They should be telling him to pick the school that fits him the best and to heck with everyone else. Instead, they are the ones who appear to be putting the most pressure on him to go to Alabama. Sad, sad situation.

The fact is that he backed out of one committment and may back out of another committment...some folks don't like someone who doesn't stand by their word. I understand his father being upset but think he will support his son's decision once the LOI is signed.

This is why it is great to be an Auburn Man!

Every person who replied to this thread seems to care more about this young man as a person than they do about what he can bring to the football team...and probably none of us know him personally.

Contrast that with the venom and hatred directed at this guy from the University across the state. People threatening him on facebook, wishing him harm, calling him "benedict arnold" and probably much more than we even know about. Its not only sad, its shameful and embarrassing...

Its great to be an Auburn Tiger!

Of course we all want him - but at what cost? I would never want to push someone into something they aren't sold on. I don't care about depth issues at running back if it comes down to emotionally destroying a kid.

i just read an article that his adopted brother is at Tuskegee. did the father not think that maybe Brent wanted to be near his brother?

Much like others, the only way I'd like to see him at Auburn, is if he wants to be at Auburn.
I hope the kid can make his decision without family pressures. The pressure from all the schools recruiting him is enough. Whatever he chooses, he's going to feel like he let someone down. Like others, I hope he can be happy with whatever decision he makes. I have no doubt he would love it at AU, but someone that young, you never know what they are thinking. Like I've said before, if I knew then what I know now...........

Ha. I got down voted for my comment. Some of yall are very cavelier with that feature (probably worst feature added to this site). If you will re read what I said I never said anything negative to the nature that I don't wish him the best. I said I don't want our coaches to give up on him for the simple reason that he is feeling alot of pressure. Some of your comments (particularly the one I quoted) sounded like you were willing to give up and that he should just do what his step father wants. I'm not going to wish him to do bad at any other school. I was just saying I don't want our coaches to give up on him. If we lose out but never stopped seeking him then so be it. But if we lose out because the coaches decided they didn't want to make the decision hard for him (as some make it sound (not all)) then I would be very disappointed in our coaches. Don't worry guys I will go ahead and start down voting all of my opinions to save y'all the trouble
